Joyful Music to Celebrate Life er et interdisciplinært projekt med fire performere – tre musikere og en bevægelseskunstner – skabt af komponist og kunstner James Black.
Projektet udforsker nogle af livets mest dybtgående spørgsmål gennem musik, dans, video og tekst. Værket udvikles i et tæt samarbejde mellem komponisten og performerne under flere intensive residensforløb og tager udgangspunkt i det grundlæggende spørgsmål: Hvad vil det sige at være i live?
I forbindelse med forløbet i Åbne Scene vil kunstnerne interagere med et publikum, som tidligere er blevet interviewet om dette spørgsmål. Senere vil ideerne fra residensforløbene blive formet til en sammenhængende performance.

Joyful Music to Celebrate Life is an interdisciplinary project with four performers – three musicians and one movement artist – created by composer and interdisciplinary artist James Black.
The project delves into some of life’s most profound questions through music, dance, video, and text. Developed collaboratively by the composer and performers during several intensive residency periods, the work begins with a fundamental question: What does it mean to be alive?
During the residency in Aarhus, the artists will engage with an audience previously interviewed on this question. Later, the ideas explored during the residencies will be shaped into a cohesive performance.
