GGRIL • C-IME • Ensemble Supermusique — Des nuées de ritournelles

tour de bras
tour de bras
A meeting between the improvisers of the Rimouski-based ensemble GGRIL and Ensemble SuperMusique, together with the musicians and sound artists of the Belgian collective C-IME.

The idea of the ritournelle comes from Belgian saxophonist and composer Audrey Lauro. Although she won’t be traveling with them this time, her spirit accompanies this concert—conceived and reconceived—made of improvisation, fragility, and attentive listening. Members of GGRIL and C-IME have been collaborating for several years, following a serendipitous encounter at the Citadelic Festival in Ghent. In 2022, after a residency in Rimouski, Audrey Lauro composed Ritournelle Reverse, a piece for GGRIL.

In a marvelous desire to collaborate within a shared creative process—one that inhabits space and the physicality of sound—three musicians from C-IME (Belgium), five musicians from GGRIL (Rimouski), and two guests from Ensemble SuperMusique (Montréal) come together on stage for a Montréal ritournelle.

Presented by Tour de Bras, Productions SuperMusique, and Le Vivier, in collaboration with Québec Musiques Parallèles.
With the support of  Wallonie Bruxelles International
