More Info:

Montreal-based string nonet Collectif9 presents another innovative programme, featuring works by Hildegard von Bingen, Arvo Part, Michael Tippett, Nicole Lizee, Bryce Dessner, and Jocelyn Morlock. Rituaels is a new collection of music from the medieval to the modern era with a narrative - an artistic gesture - that recalls the human tradition of passing on knowledge and practices in culture and art. An element of continuity ties each work of music to the next, whether introduced as a drone or held note, a chord that imperceptibly transforms, or a group of continuously repeated notes. The earliest performances included dance and movement, an idea that influenced the interpretation and development of the programme that is revealed on this album.
