About
This disc follows the musical journey associated with the construction of medieval cathedrals, particularly those of the ecclesiastical province of Sens, France. The repertoire spans several centuries from Gregorian neumes to the polyphony of the Renaissance. Residents of Sens since 2009, Ensemble Obsidienne breathe new life into the Gothic period and restore the ancient sounds of the mass to a modern day audience.

September 2015
The singers of Obsidienne try their hand (so to speak) at a number of different styles (including improvised canon); and though possibly not every moment goes to plan, it is fascinating to listen to them thinking aloud. These latter tracks are worth the price of admission…they reconnect us with a crucial facet of mediaeval and Renaissance musicians' practice.
