Clear & Sweet, is a multidisciplinary performance incorporating dance and live vocals based on an inquiry into Sacred Harp Singing
(SHS). Building on the format of SHS, z|j will integrate singers into audiences creating an immersive sonic, physical and visual
experience. SHS is a form of spiritual a cappella choral singing founded in Southern Baptist churches, but also practiced in secular
groups. SHS and z|j’s work share a desire for creating opportunities for redemption through participants' personal relationship to worship in the company of others.
