Guido Belcanto - Pavilion of Human Passions

On a hot day last summer, Guido Belcanto drove his silver Cadillac to Brussels, towards the Jubelpark. There he stood in a pavilion in front of the gigantic relief ‘De Menselijke Driften’ by Jef Lambeaux. Between the bodies in stone, he also recognized himself. The busker who moved from café to café with songs by, among others, the Zangeres Zonder Naam. The man who later sang about his own lusts, without shame. And also the dark sides of others – with much compassion, but not without humor. Back home, he took pen and guitar in hand and wrote with a sinister smile on his lips: “Life is a harsh horror. We are all in the same boat: everyone, rich or poor, we are going to die”. But in anticipation of that, there is the Emperor of the Life Song and his regular band to make everything right! With a new record and a suitcase full of familiar songs. Top evening guaranteed!
