Tanya Tagaq performed at the festival Colours of Ostrava three weeks ago. I must admit that this was the best performance the visitors to the festival could be honoured with. When I read a short bio and a description of Tanya’s music in the festival program I was very curious and eager to see and most of all hear her. The whole crowd was so amazed that during her performance the whole area in front of the stage went quiet (though it was packed) with admiration and then would burst out with applause after a song finished. I still have goose bumps when I think of it. It was obvious that Tanya Tagaq did not expect such warm and enthusiastic response and as one of the media described it, she left the stage in tears.
