- Taina_Kokkonen abstract "Taina Kokkonen (born 15 May 1975 in Vantaa near Helsinki, Finland) is a former award-winning Finnish singer.She has performed on Italian TV, in Brussels, and in Argentina and Uruguay as part of the Tango 2000 educational tour.She first tried for the prestigious Tangomarkkinat competition in 1995, but did not reach the semifinals. In 1996 she got through the Raisio semifinals and was one of the 10 best. She rather frightened herself with her success:"I was in a great panic. I thought, do I really want this? . . . . I secretly hoped I wouldn't get any further. I have watched my performance on video and it shows how inexperienced I was." (Nyman, p. 175)She did not however reach the Seinäjoki finals, and Saija Varjus became Tango Queen. Taina's third attempt was in 1998, when she reached the finals and became Tango Princess, losing the winning place to Kirsi Ranto. After a record four attempts, she finally became Tango Queen in 1999.In 2002, taking advantage of the new rule that songs may be in any language, she composed an Italian-language entry for the Eurovision Song Contest. This was Silenzio, and was performed by Pertti Haverinen; but it was not selected, and the Finnish entry for that year was the English-language "Addicted to You", sung by Laura, which came 20th with 24 points.Before she became a Tango Queen in Seinäjoki, Kokkonen had been finished her studies and became a Master of Education Sciences and a teacher in Hämeenlinna.At the moment she works as a class teacher in Vantaa.Year 2007 Kokkonen got married to a man called Cemo Timucin - working in an IT-branch and is educated as a Master of engineering and they live in Vantaa with their son Tino.Year 2009 Taina Kokkonen worked during the summertime as a radiohost having morning programs in a local radiostation near Helsinki resort.Taina Kokkonen the singer is not the same person as Taina Kokkonen the printmaker whose website is http://www.tainakokkonen.net.".
