Middle Ages Cistercian Chant (12th. Cent) 12th Century

To reveal the glory of Cistercian chant, Marcel Pérès visited the churches characteristic of the Cistercian aesthetic: the Fontfroide and Sénanque abbeys are distinguished by their unique acoustic qualities that greatly amplify the harmonics produced by a single voice, without involving the artifice of polyphony. With its work in situ, the Ensemble Organum highlights a fundamental link between liturgical chant and the edifices where it was intended to be heard. A spiritual journey in sound and in space.
