Citadelic festival 2022 

28 MEI - 12H
   LE GGRIL:
   Grand Groupe Régional d’improvisation Libérée
   (Canadian ensemble of improvisers, Rimouski/Quebec)
            post structuralist village band

GGRIL is a motley crew of cheerful musicians from the small town of Rimouski in eastern Quebec (Canada). This grand ensemble of improvisers is characterised by an eclectic and varied instrumentation: electric guitars, strings, wind instruments, percussion and other devices and objects for a deep playful dive into a liberated land.

For the performance of its SOMMES tour, the GGRIL has chosen an amalgam of pieces, concepts and improvisations explored by the ensemble over the past few years. The 14 musicians will present compositions from the album SOMMES (2021), as well as games, directed improvisations, and pieces composed by members of the group. Never identical, the performances of the GGRIL are intended as a journey where the listener can immerse themselves in the universe of the GGRIL through an authentic and unexpected experience from show to show.
