The Project: Clear & Sweet
Clear & Sweet, a multi-disciplinary performance incorporating dance, vocals, and visuals, represents an inquiry into Southern Baptist Sacred Harp Singing and choreographer Zoe Scofield's complicated connection to her southern roots.
Sacred Harp Singing is a form of spiritual a capella choral singing founded in southern baptist churches, but most often practiced in large non-denominational groups. Sacred Harp Singing and zoe | juniper's work both strive to grow a collective force, creating personal relationships to worship in the company of others, and redemption through physical exertion. Sacred Harp Singing contrasts Scofield's love of ballet and offers a new perspective to ballet's need for formality in line, unison, and rigorous training. Using ballet technique as a foundation the group will derive a movement language that explores efforts to dismantle and rearrange their conceived perceptions of ballet's ideology.
