Tarja - Frisson Live 2026

Tarja returns to the stage in 2026 with the "Frisson Live 2026" tour. Alongside it comes her new studio album - her first full-length album in a harder sonic spectrum in seven years.

The setlist features new material and career highlights. The tour concept is built on contrasts: intimate, fragile moments stand alongside eruptive choruses, cinematic passages next to uncompromising metal energy. "Frisson" - the French word for goosebumps - sets the tone.

Tarja became known as a classically trained soprano who merged operatic technique with metal. She gained international recognition as a founding member of Nightwish; iconic albums and world tours shaped an entire era of symphonic metal. Since then, as a solo artist, she has continuously evolved her style and earned gold and platinum certifications.
