This worldwide new stage and concert project of the Dutch visionary artist Lex van Someren, who is living in South Germany, starts its 2nd international tour in Autumn 2010. The central focus of the performance are soul-vibrations and soul dimensions that are invoked by the mystical music of singer, composer and performance-artist Lex van Someren, accompanied by 7 brilliant musicians, several dancers and a choir.
Lex is a multi-talented performer. His inspiring and blissful music carries a powerful sacredness and beauty. The one thread that runs through each of the performed songs is his heartfelt spiritual presence.
Various art forms are brought together in a magical theatrical experience, harmoniously combined and united to form a celebration of life for all our senses. With vitality, lightness and humor, mystical “music of the heart”, song and chanting, devotional dance improvisations, Derwish dance, Tai-Chi-dance, poetry of light, shamanic world music, a dreamjourney opens up for heart and soul.
“Dreamjourney for the Soul” is a celebration and a tribute to our divine nature. These versatile artists create a wondrous connection between our life on earth, our inner life and the life beyond. This show calls us to remember, to return to the natural rhythms that connect us to a deeper and more joyful experience of life.

The Clown
Lex van Someren will also be on stage as a mystic clown, to be experienced close-up with delightful improvisations with his audience. The famous English poetess, Kathleen Raine wrote about this clown: “It is pure poetry. This mystic clown is a “child of paradise”, and we all long to be led back into that happy country. His magic touches the hardest heart.”
Nourished by his sense of the oneness of all things this clown returns again and again to the simplicity of being and remembers his part in the vast mystery of the universe. With his openess he is a mirror for the world. In a natural way. Lex van Someren presents clowning as a sacred art form, where silence and nothingness become the source of inspiration for spontaneous improvisations on stage. With great passion and respect he involves his audience in his acts.
