Songs for Bones, Flesh, Sweat

Songs for Bones, Flesh, Sweat

Andrew Tay and Philip Nozuka created with the TDT Ensemble

Songs for Bones, Flesh, Sweat is a concert for the body—an irreverent celebration of the sounds, rhythms, and music our physical selves can produce. Performed by the company ensemble alongside multidisciplinary artist Philip Nozuka, the work re-imagines the body as an instrument, creating scores from skin, breath, impact, friction, and voice.

Body to body, body to floor, flesh to air. Sweat becomes rhythm, bones mark time, breath carves form. Discipline and playfulness entwine as the dancers attempt to construct an aural architecture that wobbles between the absurd and the sublime.

Equal parts concert and ritual, Songs for Bones, Flesh, Sweat invites audiences to listen differently, to trip on the magic of the human body—its capacity to resound, to transform sound into form, and to remind us of the irrepressible music we carry in our very bones.
