Renowned Albanian soprano Ermonela Jaho is returning home to deliver a breathtaking concert at the National Theatre of Opera and Ballet in Tirana. The highly anticipated performance, scheduled for September 17, promises to offer the audience a night full of unforgettable emotions, musical excellence, and artistic passion.
A Homecoming Filled with Emotion
Deeply moved by her return to Albania, Jaho described the concert as a special moment in her career:
“It is a very unique concert. I am happy to return home to share my experiences. Every time I come back, it feels like bringing part of my life with me.”
For Jaho, stepping onto the TKOB stage is more than just a performance — it is a heartfelt reunion with her homeland.
A Challenging and Unique Program
The soprano revealed that the evening’s repertoire will surprise many, offering pieces that have never been performed before at TKOB. Among them, works by Belcanto masters will highlight the demanding yet inspiring program.
“It’s a very challenging repertoire, something that has never been played here before. The emotion is immense. When you return to your home stage, it feels like you’re seen under a magnifying glass. This concert is truly special.”
When Feelings Find a Voice
The concert carries the evocative title “When Feelings Find a Voice”, chosen to reflect Jaho’s artistic philosophy.
“Music is the language of the soul. Every note holds a smile, a tear, sorrow, or joy — it is the scale of human emotions. An artist’s mission is to share those feelings with the audience. I will give everything I have, as if it were both my first and last time on stage.”
Inspiring the New Generation
Beyond the stage, Jaho sees this concert as a message of hope and encouragement for young Albanians pursuing their dreams.
“It is a duty to the Albanian public and to the younger generations — to show them that everything is possible with hard work and sacrifice. Today there are more opportunities, but sometimes passion is missing. We have a moral obligation to inspire them.”
A Night to Remember
The concert of Ermonela Jaho at TKOB on September 17 is set to be more than just a musical performance — it is a celebration of art, passion, and the timeless power of music to unite and inspire.
