Album by the Cadets de Bourgogne 'Chansons Bachiques' / Les Éditions Miliani
RELEASE DATE: 26 April 2024
Clinking glasses, twirling souls - that's the promise of the Cadets de Bourgogne's latest recording, Chansons bachiques. Between gentle intoxication and excess, this sonic stroll immerses us in the unique repertoire so characteristic of Burgundy, where the measure of the music accompanies the melody of the vine. From 'Joyeux enfants de la Bourgogne' to 'La Chanson des Chevaliers du Tastevin' and the famous 'Ban bourguignon', the album Chansons bachiques engraves for posterity the great classics and original compositions of the Cadets de Bourgogne, figures of the Burgundian art of living but also, in many ways, of French heritage. An exclusive recording made in the exceptional setting of the Clos de Vougeot cellar under the aegis of Jean-Bernard Guiboux, choirmaster and conductor, and Michel Pierre, renowned sound engineer (Natalie Dessay, Jarouski, Les Arts Florissants...). Accompanied by its luxurious booklet with its detailed iconography and timeless graphics, Chansons bachiques offers a unique immersion into the acoustics of the Cistercian cloister and lets us experience, for the duration of an album, the enchanting spirit of a chapter. An album of rare authenticity.
