Lacrimosa will perform a show in Shenzhen as part of its China Vision Tour.

    Lacrimosa is a gothic duo led by Tilo Wolff and accompanied by Anne Nurmi.

    Their current musical style mixes gothic rock and heavy metal along with violin, trumpet and other classical instruments, though their musical development throughout the years has also led to changes in instrumentation. Lacrimosa’s lyrics are written almost exclusively in German, however since the 1995 album “Inferno,” every album has featured one or two songs in English, usually written by Nurmi. Finnish has also appeared in the spoken intro to two songs (“Schakal” on “Inferno” and “The Turning Point” on “Elodia”) and on a bonus track in a limited edition release of “Fassade” called “Vankina.” Their lyrics are mainly about loneliness, sadness, darkness, despair and love.
