A new series reflecting on the future of music!

This new series showcases performances by artists whose practices center on music in ways that transcend disciplines and conventions. The performances this time explore the theme of voice and language at a time when the coronavirus pandemic has greatly restricted our opportunity to speak. Hosted by composer-performer group Imaike Project and with guests working across fields outside music, these performances utilizing the body and voice, accompanied by talks, present new ways to enjoy music.

Imaike Project

Imaike Project

Imaike Project is a group of composers and performers comprising Toshihiro Imamura and Moe Ikeda. With a focus on the body and an emphasis on the live experience, it continues its endeavors to rethink the meaning of music. It has held performances since 2014 in Tokyo and Nagoya. Aspiring to transcend disciplines and borders, it commissions work not only from composers but also contemporary dancers and playwrights, and its ambitious activities encompass collaborations with dancers and actors.
