Les Fragments de la Nuit is a blossoming band from Versailles, created in 2005 by Michel Villar (piano) and Ombeline Chardes (violin), score composers for film. In order to play their pieces on stage, they decided to set up a quintet made up of three violins, a cello and a piano. Their music, ranging from tragic to epic and atmospheric was greeted by audiences with unexpected enthusiasm. Some see in it the influence of repetitive music composers such as Philip Glass or Steve Reich, others the melancholic emotion found in the works of Arvo Pärt or Canadians Godspeed You! Black Emperor. „Musique Du Crépuscule“, their first album released in 2008 on the label Equilibrium Music, has been greeted with great fervour. With their opus, Les Fragments de la Nuit have crossed musical borders between rock, classical music, metal and pop. 2010. Their new album «Demain, C’Était Hier» perpetuates their timeless musical quest, blending the radiance of the stars with the dark forces that lurk in the night.
