Ensemble Organum

Description

Founded in 1982 by Marcel Pérès, the Ensemble Organum is considered as one of the leading ensembles in early music society. Their approach profoundly renewed the knowledge and way of interpretation of European's repertoires that marked the evolution of music since the 6th century.

The ensemble appears in numerous concerts Worldwide and enjoys more than forty recordings receiving the highest honours: Diapason d'Or, Classical Awards, Choc de l'année of the Monde de la Musique, New York Times’ essential records of the 20th century.
In 2000, the New York Times ranked the recording of "la Messe de Machaut" by Organum Ensemble as one of the 100 essential records that revolutionised 20th-century music.

Going beyond a simple auditory pleasure, the research programs are conceived from an interdisciplinary perspective in order to enlarge the fields of investigation and make music the key-tool in a reflexion on the history of mentalities.
