Rock-style classical music
Montreal’s cutting-edge classical string band
collectif9 has been gathering steam since its 2011 debut, attracting diverse audiences in varied spaces. Known for energized, innovative arrangements of classical repertoire, collectif9 employs lights, staging, and amplification more commonly seen at rock acts, and heralds a new age in genre-bending classical performance. collectif9 has already performed over 70 concerts across Canada and internationally, from summer appearances at the Festival de Lanaudière and Ottawa Chamberfest, to Québec’s Côte-Nord in February, to Christmas-time in China. The ensemble combines the power of an orchestra with the crispness of a chamber ensemble for a unique experience.

"Montreal’s collectif9 put on a spectacular show at last night’s Chamberfringe. This, ladies and gentlemen, is where chamber music is going."
OTTAWA CHAMBERFEST, JULY 2014.
Learning from the classical works that have influenced non-classical musicians and the structure of pop concerts, collectif9 looks for ways to break the stigma of inapproachability, searches for new ways of expression within the classical medium, and attempts to foster communication and collaboration between artists and within their community.
collectif9 has received a great deal of support and encouragement, and are very grateful to the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, the Canada Council for the Arts, the Conseil des arts de Montréal, FACTOR, and Musitechnic.
“A Stereoscopic Rendering of Rock & Classical Music- collectif9 performed an unprecedented style of music [...] and delivered a brilliant performance concert to the broad audience in Shenzhen Concert Hall.”
