Céline Janssen
Soprano and theatre maker Céline Janssen takes the audience on a musical world tour: from Italian arias and Portuguese fado to Argentine tango and American jazz. Opera on Tour is musical cabaret at its most vibrant – playful, theatrical, and accessible, without forgetting the connoisseur.
Italy with world-famous arias, Portugal with the melancholy of fado, Ireland with intimate folk songs, the Netherlands with a touch of tearjerker, Argentina with tango passion, Spain with Latin and flamenco, Austria with operetta – and all of it sung live with beautiful arrangements.
Céline makes opera hip and accessible without losing its essence. Not a history lesson, but a vibrant performance full of recognition, wonder, humor, interaction, and emotion. Duration: 75–90 minutes, without intermission.
Following the success of Opera voor Dummies and Operacafé – performances that managed to move both the opera novice and the seasoned connoisseur – Céline Janssen is back with a new adventure.
Reviewers previously wrote about her: “From opera dummy to stage star: Céline mixes all kinds of genres with opera!” (AD) – “Céline makes opera hip, funny and sexy” (Leeuwarder Courant) – “Crystal-clear voice with an enormous range that brings a laugh and a tear.” (De Stentor) – “The perfect balance between cabaret and opera.” (RTV Midden Holland)
