Similar to [r17777239] but with a red line underneath the ECM NEW SERIES logo on the disc label (blue nor silver)."Officium" on CD by Garbarek with the Hilliard Ensemble is a landmark ECM Records release that bridges early sacred music and contemporary jazz improvisation. The album places Jan Garbarek's haunting, lyrical saxophone lines in a luminous acoustic space around the Hilliard Ensemble's pure, unaccompanied vocal textures. Built largely on renaissance and medieval sacred repertoire, the music unfolds with meditative slowness, long reverberation and an almost cathedral-like atmosphere, creating a sense of timelessness that has captivated listeners well beyond the jazz and classical worlds. This recording is ideal for late-night listening, focused contemplation or simply anyone seeking a deeply spiritual, spacious sonic experience.
Jan Garbarek is one of Europe's most influential saxophonists, known for his clear, singing tone, melodic economy and a style that fuses Nordic folk influences with jazz and contemporary classical elements. Over the years he has become a central figure in the ECM catalogue, working in small groups, orchestral contexts and cross-cultural projects. The Hilliard Ensemble, one of the leading vocal ensembles for early music, is renowned for its precision, blend and historically informed yet emotionally direct performances. Together, Garbarek and the Hilliard Ensemble created with "Officium" one of the most recognizable and enduring crossover projects of the late 20th century, opening new audiences to both early vocal music and improvised saxophone.
