Charming Dutch Songs
Tedere Baldadigheden (Tender Brutalities), this is the name of Guido Belcanto's new album which will be released in September. A wonderful album, with which the charming singer looks back with melancholy and humor on the many mischievous adventures that have punctuated his life. Love wins, but tragedy and sadness also mark Belcanto himself and the bruised souls of the many colorful characters who come to life in his songs (in Dutch).
For more than forty years, Guido Belcanto wrote songs to create a personal universe where life is good. A warm and recognizable home for all, young and old, rich and poor, winners and losers. A home where everyone can be themselves without embarrassment, appreciate happiness, measure the damage suffered, let the tears flow and let the laughter resonate.
With an impressive repertoire of some three hundred songs, fifteen studio albums and several compilations, Guido Belcanto is one of the leading figures of Flemish song. A completely authentic phenomenon which always fills the halls with his warm and intense shows which leave no one indifferent and where the intense bond with its audience becomes as if by magic tangible. Every time, every night.
For the concert in De Roma, Guido Belcanto will be accompanied by Het Broederschap: Lieven De Maesschalk (guitar, accordion, piano), Andries Boone (violin, mandolin), Maarten Moesen (drums, percussion), Nicolas Rombouts (bass) and Geert Hellings (guitarist).
