Het Europees-Japanse artiestencollectief Japone Artists gaat deze zomer op tour voor een aantal optredens in Europa, waaronder een show op HYPER JAPAN Festival 2022. Na virtueel te hebben meegedaan aan verschillende evenementen tijdens de pandemie, kon de groep in oktober 2021 optreden tijdens Heroes Made in Asia Gorinchem. Daarna is de groep hard aan de slag gegaan om de komende zomer vaker op het podium te staan.

De tournee bestaat uit vier data:

Zondag 19 juni, 2022: Japan Festival Amstelveen – Amstelveen, Nederland
Vrijdag 24 juni, 2022: Pletterij – Haarlem, Nederland
Zaterdag 2 juli, 2022: “LOVE UKRAINE” Charity Concert @ Evangelisch-Lutherse Kerk – Haarlem, Nederland
Zaterdag 23 juli 2022: HYPER JAPAN Festival 2022 – Londen, Verenigd Koninkrijk

Tijdens deze zomertournee zullen een aantal leden van het artiestencollectief meespelen, waaronder sopraan/zangeres Utako Arakawa en Ayumi Matsuda (blokfluit). Nadat hij zich vorig jaar bij Japone Artists aansloot, is bassist Yusuke Morita uit Japan overgevlogen om de optredens mee te maken als één van de artiesten op het podium. Daarnaast zal de zwaardvechter en martial arts acteur Aristos Dragon-Warrior optreden op Japan Festival en HYPER JAPAN Festival 2022. Tijdens het liefdadigheidsconcert “LOVE UKRAINE” zal ook pianist Yoshimi Kawai – die in 2020 bij Japone Artists aansloot – optreden. De voorstellingen tijdens deze tournee zullen gericht zijn op muziek en in sommige gevallen ook op dans in plaats van de gebruikelijke combinatie van theater, dans en muziek.

Verder zal het optreden in de Pletterij in Haarlem ook live worden uitgezonden voor iedereen die niet in de gelegenheid is om het optreden persoonlijk bij te wonen.

In februari bracht het artiestencollectief hun allereerste digitale single uit, getiteld The Terra, bestaande uit drie tracks, of drie delen, zoals omschreven door de leden van Japone Artists, want deze release is geschreven in de stijl van een sonate waarbij je wordt meegenomen op een reis over de aarde. Meer over de release kun je lezen in ons vorige artikel. Een maand later brachten ze de digitale single voor Toryanse uit, die ook een videoclip had gekregen en een première genoot tijdens HYPER JAPAN ONLINE in 2021.

Over Japone Artists

Bestaande uit Japanse artiesten, gevestigd in Nederland, Duitsland en Japan, die een mix van traditionele en hedendaagse kunst op het internationale podium brengen. De theatrale shows die Japone Artists presenteren bevatten veel elementen van schoonheid, drama, humor, projectiekunst en originele of geremixte verhalen. Sinds de start van de activiteiten in 2016, heeft het artiestencollectief opgetreden op verschillende evenementen met een focus op Japanse cultuur gevestigd in Nederland.

Door de omstandigheden van de pandemie heeft Japone Artists besloten om hun fans via digitale platforms te bereiken. Ze hebben gewerkt aan nieuwe muziek, theatrale verhaallijnen, hebben meegedaan aan online edities van conventies binnen en buiten Nederland, en zijn zelfs een videopodcast begonnen, getiteld Japone Artists Talk. In mei 2021 is bassist en componist Yusuke Morita toegetreden als het nieuwste groepslid van Japone Artists. Hij heeft ook gewerkt voor anime producties zoals Hirune-Hime (Napping Princess) en Carol & Tuesday. Samen met hem creëert Japone Artists met verve originele muziek en video’s, waarvan twee muziekvideo’s werden gepresenteerd op HYPER JAPAN ONLINE.

Sinds 2020 is Francisca Hagen, hoofdredactrice van AVO Magazine, de manager van Japone Artists. Nu wil Japone Artists breder internationaal gaan en ons doel is om indruk te maken op meer mensen met Japanse schoonheid en geesten door een verfijnde hoog gekwalificeerde prestatie.
