Yann Tiersen

Solo in Concert


The lyrical European composer Yann Tiersen broke through to the mainstream in 2001, thanks to the wonderful score he wrote for Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s film Amélie. Tiersen’s impressive track record includes nine studio albums, plenty of collaborations, live albums and three excellent soundtracks (for Amélie, Good Bye, Lenin! and Tabarly). His most recent album, Eusa, is inspired by the small Brittany island Ile d’Ouessant (known in English as “Ushant”). A long-time favourite among Greek audiences, Tiersen will return to Greece for a performance at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the jewel in the crown of his global tour in prestigious venues, such as the Sydney Opera House and the Barbican Centre. Ever since he first set foot on the stage of the Greek National Opera, Yann Tiersen won over the hearts of Greek music-goers.
