A project by Muziektheater Transparant in co-production with Madam Fortuna and De Singel
INNER LIFE is the latest composition by award-winning composer Wim Henderickx.
INNER LIFE is an alchemical formula, or a game, in which all possible musical groups and musical personalities can participate.
INNER LIFE is a composition by Wim Henderickx (1962-2022), award-winning composer, percussionist and music educator.
Under the musical direction of Diederik Glorieux, HERMESensemble and Nemø ensemble worked together with, among others, a choir from Madam Fortuna, basketball players, a brass band of students and music associations from all over the city. All these people came together in the nomadic concert INNER LIFE.
Before the show toured various locations, INNER LIFE premiered at DE SINGEL, where the audience met an ever-changing group of performers. It was a highlight of our city festival Dear Antwerp.
The occasional choir of Madam Fortuna with more than 25 participants is led by Bart Patoor and Céline di Maccio.

About the music
Wim Henderickx (1962-2022), composed a score in seven chapters. Under the musical direction of Diederik Glorieux, HERMESensemble will work on this unique composition, which contains various gateways: passages that are open to additional layers of performance and give freedom to various interpretations. This makes collaboration possible: choirs, basketball players, a brass band with students from the Antwerp Conservatory and music associations from all over the city come together in this musical laboratory to bring Inner Life to life. Every performance of Inner Life is different.
