Hana Kogure, canta o prazer da Vida
Hana Kogure(JP) com Miguel Leiria Pereira(PT)

Singing is a life itself. That says, as we find the pleasure in our life, Hana Kogure sings the shine in our world.

Hana Kogure, Japanese singer, comes back to Lisbon with her new tracks. An encounter with Portuguese culture brings her the magnificent musicality, such as with the songs of "Andorinha" and "A Cidade Onde Gaivotas Vivem". Also this concert involves the collaboration with a portuguese contrabassist, Miguel Leiria Pereira.

Structure/ Improvisation/ Multi-layered Phases
Hajime Fujita(JP/PT) e Miguel Leiria Pereira(PT)

In most of improvisation performance, either dance or music, it is usual that the artists projects or interprets his intention as artistic format(kind of as an instant composition). Our question here is, what or who is the subject(e.g. author) of that improvised performance.

Or, let's say we are trying to avoid that the performance acquires any subject. In other words, nothing is controlling, dominating, and occupying the performance. We, including the audience, are free and equal at the moment.

The key concept is the Structuralism. We see 'relationships' between us on the multi-layered phases. For instance, physical matters(dance movements, sound tones...), cultural background, social identification position, political attitude.... various and complex, but at the same time we can figure out and establish(or automatically being established) the certain relationship on each layer and on multi layers. There no obligation and obsession to find any subject.

This is our artistic experiment and research based on the anthropological curiosity: how can we live together with the Other who is never 'understandable'.
