about
«GGRIL is a kind of poststructuralist village band.(...) In the performance at FIMAV, it was apparent how thoroughly GGRIL has entered the elite of Québec’s musical avant-garde.»STUART BROOMER, Point od Departure ,USA, JANVIER 2014
GGRIL is a large group of improvisers from a small town in eastern Quebec who bring together a colorful and electric instrumentation, a playful and raw dive into liberated territory. GGRIL has been active since 2007 and, in addition to developing a personal repertoire, has worked with musicians of the calibre of Jean Derome, Evan Parker (Uk), Michael Ficher (Au), and Ingrid Laubrock (Usa).
Façons brings together monolithic and obstinate music created during residencies with John Butcher, Isaiah Ceccarelli and Xavier Charles.
Organon was commissioned from Isaiah Ceccarelli in 2016 and premiered in Rimouski on May 1 of the same year. It is a series of monolithic agreements. We must imagine the sound of a great organ, an orchestra of 500 viols playing in unison, a hurdy-gurdy, several bells ringing at the same time, rattles, a crackling sound, a forest fire.
On Your Knees was inspired by a workshop done with Xavier Charles in 2015. The piece is a listening exercise that is now part of the GGRIL's concert repertoire.
Local Fixations was commissioned from John Butcher and premiered with him in April 2018 in Rimouski. Interested in the contrasts of timbres and manners, this piece is the one that leaves the most room for improvisation
