Concerts “Like in Heaven”
Those people who have once experienced a concert with Lex van Someren, know that this Sound Artist has a talent to embody the dimensions of the soul in his music and performance art. His singing and chanting are like a poetic language of the heart, which touch a profound space within.
Under the title "Like in Heaven" this Dutch performance artist, living in South Germany, invites us, together with his band, on a musical journey for heart and soul with an extraordinary world of sound
VOICE - VISION - MYSTERY
Meditative music, enthralling melodies, mystical soundscape experiences, chanting, Lex' soulful voice and the silence blend into a harmonious synthesis that create a sense of wellbeing and a healing atmosphere, which have a profound and long range effect on the audience.
The concert repertoire includes many compositions by Lex van Someren and his musical partner, Frank Steiner, sacred chants (mantras) and surprising improvisations - music that the musicians create in the moment here-and-now.
With his versatile and magical voice, which reaches 4 octaves, this singer celebrates many of his songs in his soul language - words and syllables without rational meaning, which removes the distraction of the mind and empower the audience to listen with the heart.
The audience is invited to experience and enjoy the concert without applauding. The music itself is part of the experience, the other part is the silence that follows after the music.
The Audience comments:
"This is music for the new world"
"Through listening to this wonderful music I have rediscovered my joy of life. It reaches straight into the innermost depths of my being"
"This music evokes a relaxed state of heightened awareness and awakes a mood of delight, reverence and awe"
"I have never heard before such a beautiful male voice! Just wonderful, a blessing, visionary, magnificent??"
