JaDaLand Art’s Birthday Performance – Jan Van Den Dobbelsteen & Danielle Lemaire
JaDa is the name of the Soundart duo Jan Van Den Dobbelsteen & Danielle Lemaire.
For Art’s Birthday 2011 JaDa will realize a live performance/concert played on all kinds of little home tools and instruments. JaDa will use electronic instruments and little acoustic wooden, metallic and bamboo objects, taken home from a 3 months residency stay in Xiamen, China. This “Little China” sound performance will be mixed with “The JaDaland national anthem”, a stretched sound layer of 20 minutes. The JaDaLand Art’s Birthday Performance is a micro-world party with all the bells and whistles, and somewhere you can hear the voice of Robert Filliou.
