2024 Percussion Theatre "Hexalogy"
Ai Docubank Cultural Feast
Let the "music" speak music, starting from the purest pulse. The continuous exploration of infinite possibilities is both the origin and the intention.
Ju Percussion Group's new creation, Percussion Theatre: Hexalogy, takes each impact and accumulation to profoundly connect our experiences, intuition, and emotions. Six distinctly different compositions reveal the diverse facets of percussion music, drawing out the hidden energies within the performers' bodies. From facial expressions to gestures, extending to each struck note, rhythmic waves resonate through the theatre’s air, creating a dreamlike beauty that unveils the most authentic emotions of the present moment.
In 2024, Ju Percussion Group presents the third installment of Percussion Theatre: Hexalogy, in collaboration with creative talents including creative facilitator CHENG Yung-San, lighting designer CHE Ko-Chien, multimedia designer Ethan WANG, set designer CHEN Hui, and costume designer HSIEH Yi-Wen. This production initiates a dialogue and contemplation with percussion music, returning to the essence of exploration. With music at its core, Hexalogy aims to deliver a profoundly moving percussion theatre experience through the purest audiovisual pulse of percussion music for its audience.
