Volume Three marks another important step in the
evolution of Toronto’s Collective Order. Having
released two volumes of music, they have solidified
a vision for the future of the project: “Looking
ahead, Collective Order plans to continue to become
more inclusive and to better reflect the musical and
cultural diversity of Toronto.”
With Volume Three, the band has created a
collection of compositions inspired by individual
band members’ cultural backgrounds and personal
experiences. Toronto is a collection of incredibly
diverse and culturally rich communities, and in this
collaborative project, the band aims to eliminate
imaginary boundaries and establish new musical
traditions.
In keeping with the collaborative nature of
Collective Order, the opening title is a composition
written to accompany a traditional land
acknowledgement by Indigenous artist Melanie
Montour.
Collective Order will be releasing Volume 3 on
Friday, November 23, 2018. The release will be
celebrated with a performance at Gallery 345 in
Toronto on December 13th at 7:30pm.
