An award-winning nine-member ensemble from Montreal, collectif9 performs “with an infectious energy and vigour that grabs an audience’s attention” (The WholeNote). Since its 2011 debut, collectif9 has performed frequently across North America, Europe, and Asia. Combining the power of an orchestra with the agility of a chamber ensemble, mixing both classical and contemporary music, every collectif9 concert is unique, innovative, and mesmerizing.
Rituæls is a grand artistic gesture bringing together works from the Middle Ages to the 21st century by Hildegard von Bingen, Arvo Pärt, Michael Tippett, Nicole Lizée, Bryce Dessner, and Jocelyn Morlock. Through music and movement, this program reflects the intricacies of human connection, embracing the beautiful and painful of our coexistence. The use of continuous, at times motionless, sound ties each tableau to the next, creating a common thread that accompanies us through a succession of emotional phases: the spiritual, the intimate, the fragile, the dismayed, the grandiose, the humble, and many more.
Throughout this journey, we follow the commanding performance of Stacey Désilier (dance) in an impassioned choreography; a supreme presence who embodies all of the above.
What originally began as a concert in 2021 eventually became the subject of the 2024 album Analekta/Outhere Music, which received an Opus Award in 2026, a JUNO Award in 2025, and a nomination at the 2025 Québec Association for the Recording, Concert and Video Industries (ADISQ) Gala.
collectif9 bring this piece to Banff as faculty of the Banff Musicians in Residence program.
