Jan Garbarek

Officium

A hauntingly beautiful combination of medieval unaccompanied choral music and jazz saxophone, featuring The Hilliard Ensemble and Jan Garbarek. Since its release in 1994 it has become a perennial best seller. The writer Marius Gabriel remarked that Officium is ‘what Coltrane hears in heaven’.
