Heading to Hungary!

The show with Rata Blanca in Buenos Aires was a great experience for me personally and artistically.

The band received me warmly and I felt really welcome. It was very nice to work with Walter and Rata and share my love for music with them for a while.

I was excited to be on stage with the band as a part of their important show.

Argentinean audience participated once again in singing and cheering us in a way that is hardly found anywhere else in the world. It was just amazing!

Thank you very much Luna Park and Walter, Adrian, Fernando, Hugo & “Negro” for the friendship.

I wish you a great tour and all the best for the future challenges! Los felicito!

Here are few shots before and after the concert.

In few days I will be heading to Budapest for the rehearsals of my summer shows.

I am happy to start the tour with my band again. Guitarist Kiko Loureiro will re join us for the summer, so European audience will taste some Brazilian flavour soon ;)

Is very nice to be able to play some festivals through Europe in this summer season and also make my own shows in between. 

As well, there will be some classical music appearances later this year and one more tour for “the storm” in Europe in September-October, which I call “The final storm”.

These shows will be the last ones with “My Winter Storm” album. Delights me to realize that I have been really able to spread my wings with my first album. We have performed in several countries; including many new places in my career. Is a dream come true. 

To finish this year, I will be making a Christmas tour again with Kalevi, Marzi and Markku in Finland in December. We will mostly perform in churches.

As you can see, you won’t get rid of me that easily :)

    Heey Tarja,

    I saw the video’s of Rata Blanca, to be honest i never heard from them before but the show looked really great :D

    But now I’m happy you’re coming back to Europe, really can’t wait. I’m so delighted in 1,5 weeks I’m leaving to Romania and I’m already uberexcited !

    Very nice to know you’re also making a Christmas tour again! Those concerts are so different from the ones you usually give but I enjoy them as much!

    See you in 2 weeks :D

  11. Amandiel Says:

    Hello Tarja!
    Really nice to read from you again!
    Summer shows, final storm and christmas tour… You’ll be busy, since you will also start recording What Lies Beneath in the end of the year, according to some interviews I’ve checked. :)
    Can’t wait to listen to some new songs, but also the “old” ones still catch my breath. Just wish I could see you one more time with MWS tour. The Storm in Rio was just… unbelievably amazing. Hope to see you soon again.
    Nice to know that Kiko will be with you again, he’s great.

    So, I wish you, your band, crew and loved ones all the best, and (although you don’t need it) good luck with these final concerts!

    Hello Tarja!

    It’s clear you had a great time on stage with Rata. Would be so great to see you as guest on other artists gigs. It’s great to see these colaborattions happening. Btw, Doro said she would like to do something with you at MFVF. Would be great see you performing “Walking With The Angels”.

    Have a great week, a good flight to Hungary and another great tour in EUrope.
    All the best!

    Great performance with Rata, your voice was astonishing!
    I agree with Myla, bring that to the next album, it will certainly knock our socks off:) And do us a favor sing Child in time in your own concerts, it was to good to be just a one time thing.
    Good luck with the next gigs and rock on!

  52. Rolién Says:

    hey! hey! heey Dear!
    I loved your performance with Rata Blanca!
    Perfectly prepared with your voice!
    As you can see, you can take some place with your voice that you think: “Well, it’s so ‘simple’ to do this… I need to sing a bit more hard”
    Hey, Tarja! Wake up!
    Some little pieces of your voice in music makes a diferent song…
    Sure that your voice has to be more and more prepared. But, this little pieces are so easy to make. And I love it!
    Take care, Dear!
    I love you!
    and I’m waiting for your tour with someone that I can say: “He’s from my country!”
    kkk
    and, Good luck for Kiko, too…
    kisses, my queen!
    Love you so much!

  66. Jeff Says:

    Hi Tarja! Very nice to hear your new job on “My Winter Storm”. I first listened to the album yesterday and every time I remember that I lost the opportunity to see you singing alive here in Belo Horizonte I feel a bit said… You came here last year and I confess that at that time I wasn’t able to know how amazing is the experience of listening this album. Altough I feel a bit said remembering that, I feel excited in the hope of seeing you around Belo Horizonte again. Be sure that I’ll be on the first line. Also be sure that, after watching some interview of yours on local T.V’s I’ll be always checking your blog, trying to make this a short way between the artist and me, the admirer. You look to be a very nice people on those interviews, and that astonished me. How can someone have such a wornderful eyes, sing so well and after that, being a so nice person?!? Hehehe just kidding girl… I must go now, that’s enough for today right? But before I leave, I would like to comment about the “Phanton of the Opera” ad on the last photo, right on the top of the right building. Was that proposital?? See you and all my best wishes for you!

  67. Piogothic Says:

  70. Noora Says:

    Hei Taape! :D

    Aivan ihanaa, tulin justiin reissusta kotia, ja täällä oli päivitys odottamassa! :) Ihanaa kun kuuluu hyvää, ja My Winterstorm-kiertueiden loppupuolelle kallistuminen sai odottamaan entistä innokkaammin tulevaa What lies beneath-albumia. Kuvísta katsoin sen verran, että violetti väri oli hiuksissasi kaunis. En sitten tiedä, oliko valaistuksen syy, vai oletko värjännyt? No, kaunis väri joka tapauksessa :D Kaikkea hyvää sinulle jatkossakin, haleja ja tottakai terveisiä myös Marcelolle!! :D :D

  71. sezin Says:

    Hi Tarja! I was extremely happy when i heard you were coming to Turkey!!! but when I heard it was on Thursday and in Istanbul, I felt really desperate! :( Isn’t there any chance that you may come to Ankara,too on the same tour, perhaps on 9th October :D I know I’m demanding a bit too much. :D

  72. Florian (Almagest) Says:

    Noora: Tarja on kyllä värjännyt! Violetti väri muistuttaa minua Violettan nimestä La Traviata:sta! xD Anteeksi, minun suomeni on paha! LOL!

    Good eyes, Jeff! I didn’t catch on that billboard! XD

    Looking forward to seeing Tarja & band in Arcen!

    Hey Tarja!…I never really find your blog …. and I must say you are a great and wonderful artist! … your voice, the magic of your song is truly impressive and delicious … I was a fan when you were with Nightwish and although they very much regret your departure, because I think the band is not the same without you, I find out that your advances have grown at a personal level from your game and that’s wonderful! … I hope to visit again some day Chile, because in my country, there are many who yearn for your return, because when I saw you at the theater providencia was a wonderful thing !….
    I hope you read this and hopefully you might one day return to Chile, that here, we miss you!
    Hail and take care!

    Hey Tarja!
    Thanks for sharing the experience with us, and this is also part of the happiness of being a fans of yours.
    Great show with Rata Blanca~! In the third picture you look extremely cute! Hmm. There will be chances, sooner or later, for me to see you on stage personnally!
    I’m also looking forward to the classical pieces you are going to perform, ’cause personnaly I like your ‘new’ voice(I mean not the same with the voice you used in heavy metal) in classical music better. Oh and Christmas concerts! Can’t help but expecting… :)
    Greetings from Beijing(and hope to see you here someday)~

    The photo with “Tarja’s mask” on the past post was very funny,hope you kept this cool item as collector ,very good against flu.
    It’s nice to see that you are happy with tour in Americas and last show in Luna Park with Rata Blanca was a great ending of it.
    Set list for latin America was great and the choice of the new-old songs is simply amazing!! sometimes i wonder if you don’t read in my thoughts,dear heart ;)
    Ahaha,how can we get rid of you easily? you are awesome,a true godess!!
    You can sing with NW,your own band or in church of Finland, a talented singer is always the same,i worship you!! :)

    Breathe
    Sometimes I feel you, you set me free
    How can I leave my live without you?
    Sometimes I feel you set me free
    Breathe of heaven and hell
    How can I leave you for a while?
    Because the sun is shining upon a sky and the summer is coming
    A reason that feat the sky
    How can I breathe my life without knowing you?
    Is this the reason for us?

    This poem is for you Tarja dear take care lots of love raluca :) XXXHope u like the poem ^.^

  85. Ximena Says:

    Wow vi los videos con RB y la verdad estuviste genial
    Me gustaría saber si tienes otros recuerdos de México, por que la verdad verte con el cubre bocas, no me parece el más grato, bueno esa es mi humilde opinión. Comento esto porque vi en el video de las firmas, un retrato tuyo en grande, y algunos otros llevaban rosas, (¡hasta un bebé!)
    Te deseo lo mejor en tus futuros shows, espero volver a verte acá México.

    Firstly: You are the best!!!!

    I’m happy that the concert is turned out well.

    I want to see you live. But unfortunately… I leave Hungary tomorrow. Your next concert in Hungary I will be the first in a row nearest. I promise this to myself. All of my dreams is your concert :D

  92. MetalliJedi Says:

    It´s great that you shared the stage with Rata :D
    Sorry for the ignorance (I´m just catching up
    with your post-NW happenings) Max Lilja is touring with
    you also (I know he colaborated with you, but I´m not
    sure if he tours with you).
    I hope you come back to Mexico soon (thanks to no
    promotion I never knew you came until I raed it
    here).
    Oh!!! and thank you for having a Spanish version
    of your site, sometimes one gets tired of
    reading stuff about your favorite bands/artists/singers
    in English all the time. Kiitos!

  93. Jessica Says:

    hey tarja I saw ur video with rata and u look so crazy ahahah were u drunk?
    oh but it was really powerfull

  94. Jessica Says:

    plzz sing bless the child in next concert it is the best music of nw in ur voice I just love this music and how u do this perfectly

  95. Beatriz Says:

    Hi Tarja!
    The show with Rata Blanca was very good, see some videos ^ ^. Congratulations
    And who knows one day you can not sing with Master Bruce Dickinson, one of my biggest dreams is to see my biggest idols sharing the same stage, Tarja Turunen and Bruce Dickinson *_______*, would be for me too! xD

    25.26 Day and September 27 in Brazil will have a fair of musicians (the famous ExpoMusic), this fair is the largest in Latin America and it is also great musicians and bands (Angra, Sepultura, Shaman, Andre Matos, Torture Squad, Dr. Sin and among others). You know because you do not come and visit us? would be a good idea, the Kiko Loureiro it will be again this year, giving workshops, etc.. And even that would not be a bad idea for you here! More ultimantente you get full of gigs right. And if possible. Brazilian fans have already endorsed the idea, now only lack of practice in!

    Much success to you!
    Big kiss, Bia; * (Brazil)

  96. Marja Says:

  100. Guilherme7530 Says:

    I hope we never get rid of you!
    I love you!
    Well, Kiko will take some Brazilian flavour to the European audiences? What about you take some European flavour to Brazilian audience? :p
    We are anxiously waiting for you and What Lies Beneath, I can barely wait to hear it…
    Best wishes :***

  101. Liria Says:

    Hi, Tarja!!!

    Get rid of you? Who would think of that??? It’s a priviledge having an angel to listen to in our realms!!! ;-)

    Now, for real, it’s thrilling to know we have the chance of attending one of your concerts someday. However, I must agree with Guilherme7530 above: when will you bring some European taste to the Brazilian audience?? I’m among those who can’t afford going to Buenos Aires to see you. =(

    Anyway, hope you come down here to Brazil soon. And who knows? If time allows, you may sing at my wedding, as I’ve always dreamed of!! ;-)
    (Just kidding, I wouldn’t dare asking for it! I’m but a mortal! =P)

    Wish you all the best and a great summer tour!!!

    Tight hugs!!!

    Liria

  102. :) Says:

    Hello Tarja, how are you? Write something!

  103. Fernanda Barone Says:

    Hey, Tarja… Loved your makeup in the Bucharest concert! You look gorgeous!

    I loved you singing some “hard rock”, with a popular voice! It was way too different from the classical way you sing, but everybody think it was great!!!

    And I also loved your new song! Wish you could sing it for us here in Brasil…

    I still remember you have promised to release a song called “The Crying Moon”… Will you still play it in this tour?

    I got to say that you inspired me to sing… I started studying classical singing because of your influence, and it would be really great if you could give some tips of how to sing and stuff related with this.

    And… Can I make a suggestion? Play more heavy songs here… There’s a lot of fans of yours that miss you singing heavier music :D

    Kisses,

    Ferrr

  104. Joey Says:

    Hello Tarja,
    seriously…will you marry me? Why? who the hell am i? a nutcase huh? well i’m not… on what basis? you’re everything i ever wanted in a lady…maybe i’m ugly? stupid? unemployed? not as good? well i am younger than you are, but hey, whats age? you must be wondering…who’s this lunatic…what the hell is he saying…well i’m sayin whats in my heart and mind…why me? there are millions out there dying for you…who are probably successful, handsome, and brainy… just like me! now you’re prbably saying, what a joke, who does this blastard think he is? that arrogant young man..oh he got balls alright…but come to think of it, i mean really really well… we live once as the people we are right now, why miss the chance of a lifetime when you can be with someone who would embrace your every breath…crazy huh? stalker? no…this is the first time i do this…now you’re probably gonna say to yourself, ignore this a-hole… others enjoy being spectators, but i wanna be your other half…already found it? dont believe in it? you never do until you meet every single possible person you can, especially those who say I LOVE YOU TARJA! :)

  105. melisa Says:

    hey ! tarja estuviste genial en el concierto con rata blanca , eres la mejor tu musica y tu son lo mas chingon, te admiro te lo juro.eres una gran persona ,unica e inigualable. tienes una voz hermosa, y tu, no se diga eres muyyyyyy beautiful.Aber cuando regresas a mexico vale . soy tu fan no.1. . ERES LA no.1, ERES UNA DIOSA. I LOVE YOU. GRACIAS POR CREAR ESA MUSICA .
    KISSES.

  106. Florian (Almagest) Says:

    Please, people, remember that Tarja cannot choose on her own where to perform, she is invited by organisers and can also choose whether to say yes or no (depending on her plans)!

    Also, I strongly doubt she even considers an affair with fans – she doesn’t seem like the person to mess around with groupies. ;) Marcelo is a responsible adult person able to support himself; even if you think you love her more than he does (and how can you now? You don’t know Tarja as a private person), the possibility for a relationship is far too remote. Dreams are allowed, but please keep your hat on. She can’t personally get to know and examine all those thousands of fans, each and everyone of which believes he (or she) loves her more than everyone else in the world.

    How good that fandom is not exclusive! The best way to prove your devotion is to be active in a fanclub, or even found a new one if there is not one already in your country.

    Ad astra!

    Florian

  107. Florian (Almagest) Says:

    Sorry, two mistakes. I meant: She can ONLY choose whether to accept or deny, and I meant: how can you KNOW, not now.

    Moi Tarja!

    I just heared your new song “If you believe” and have to say I like it very much. It shows in a great way your preferences and gifted voice and it is an opportunity to have a very intensive and intimate moment on stage. Must be very great live and I hope to hear it in Switzerland too!

    After listening to your interview for “metalhead” I am looking even more forward to your new album. I am very curious for your moody songs and for the heavy-guitar songs!

    Good luck for touring!
    your goose “quak” ;)

    Hola Tarja!
    No pude ir a verte en vivo todavía pero la próxima vez que nos regales tu música y tu voz acá en Argentina, iré sin falta! :D
    Quiero agradecerte por tu música, por lo que haces, pero más que nada por ser como eres. Cuando te conocí en Nightwish mi vida cambió para siempre (yo nisiquiera conocía el power Metal!!!) y ahora sigo tu carrera como solista. Sólo falta verte en vivo pero sé que ese día llegará
    Dejo acá la dirección de mi Space Live, me encantaría que lo visites.
    Te mando un gran beso! y nuevamente GRACIAS POR TODO!!!

    Gabriel ;)

  112. GabboMDQ Says:

    Mi estimada señora: Antes que nada mi antentos saludos.
    Le digo que hace solo unos pocos años me acerque a su musica, en realidad a la musica de Nightwish, que para mi es lo mismo, por que no hay NightWish sin Tarja (espero esto que digo no toque su sensibilidad pero es mi sentimiento). Gracias a tu voz (ahora te trato de vos jaja!!)me acerque a esta musica (aunque siempre fui adepto del Rock pesado y al Metal) y tambien conoci otras fantasticas agrupaciones como Epica, Lacuna Coil o Stream of Passion entre otras. Mas alla que desde hace poco conozco este tipo de Metal hace mucho menos tiempo que me intereso tanto por tu carrera o la de otras bandas al punto de sentir gran fanatismo. En tu ultima presentacion en Buenos Aires estuve a punto de ir a verla pero me entre de tu presentacion muy tarde y no consegi tikets. Ojala vuelvas pronto asi poder tener otra oportunidad de verte. Seria lindo que vinieras por mi ciudad, no soy de Buenos Aires, soy de Mar del Plata, aunque tengo entendido que la conoces tambien.
    Bueno, me despido agradeciendote tu atencion y esperandote con ansias.
    Un beso

    Hello Tarja!
    I’m living in Russia, far north (Western Siberia).
    Start listening Nightwish songs about 5 years ago. Trully like it not from a first songs, because in some of them (I mean first albums) music sounds wasn’t fully played. Next tracks and albums working great.
    Little sad about you leave from nightwish (if it’s true), but single career also good, hope you like it better. Found you website casually, and decide to write to you, I was just listening before. Now when on my work, will try to watch for news here on this website.
    Regards from Russia.

    Hello Tarja … im on this blog for the first time and i think its great to see how people can share the pleasure of seeing you going on.Of course im pleased as well and i also want to send my congratulations for the My Winter Storm album.This ,plus all Nightwish albums are my the most favourite things to listen.I dont think its OK to mention the old Nightwish story again after so long but i wanted to say you personaly ,that all the Nightwishes production with you in the band was fenomenal.No disrespect to Nightwish ,but it seem to me like F1 Ferrari team without Michael Shumacher now.Although im a bit sad when I listen old Nightwish songs or your solo production ,knowing that this great song will remain as thea are unfollowed by another great things ,but hey … show must go on :) and its unqestionable that you are the best in what you are doing.So there is no reason to be sad anymore :) .Just for you to know , your voice is one of the most beautiful sounds i have ever hurd.So I too , like thousands of other fans ,wish you all the best in your future career and many happy days to come.And hopefully , i will be there when u come to wisit the Slovak Republic.

    All the best
    Tomas
