Collectif9

The string nonet collectif9 is known for programs and recordings featuring innovative arrangements and for novel cross-genre collaborations. In 2015, collectif9 released its first album, Volksmobiles. In 2018, the group recorded its second album, No Time for Chamber Music, featuring chamber arrangements of music by Mahler. That year, collectif9 also created, in collaboration with Architek Percussion, the multi-disciplinary show My Backyard, Somewhere, with texts by Kaie Kellough and music by various composers. During the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 and 2021, collectif9 presented "film-concerts," including Rituaels, and The Night of the Flying Horses, joining Romani music of several centuries with music by Osvaldo Golijov.
