Founded in 1996, ERA (an acronym for Enminential Rythmn of the Ancestors) is the project of French musician Eric Lévi, whose ethereal, evocative soundscapes began in the tradition of artists like Enigma and Deep Forest. ERA's self-titled debut LP was released in 1998 to widespread success. A mix of dramatic pseudo-orchestral fare and lyrics in a self-designed language similar to Latin and Greek, Era also incorporated elements of world music, electronic, and new age. Following up in 2000 with Era 2, Lévi returned in 2003 with The Mass - whose title track referenced Carl Orff's masterpiece O Fortuna - and sales subsequently hit platinum status in France and Switzerland. The Very Best of Era was released in 2004 and featured all the popular tracks from their previous three records as well as several remixes…

Under the title 'Winter Chants' invites Gregorian - the now world's most successful choir of all time - in the mysterious world of the oldest church singing one: It showcases the most beautiful Christmas pop songs and popular Christmas tunes - re-interpreted and skillfully staged by the unique Gregorian mix of medieval and modern sound of rock and pop music.

One of the most successful pop/classical fusion projects, Gregorian mixes well-known pop and rock songs with Gregorian chants. Overseen by producer Frank Peterson, co-founder of Michael Cretu's Enigma outfit, Gregorian's first album, Masters of Chant, released in 1999 (an early 1991 Peterson album released under the name Gregorian isn't counted among the group's official releases, but already employs the same aesthetic), became a smash hit throughout Europe, entering the Top Ten in nine different countries. The following albums continued in the same vein, covering songs by Peter Gabriel, Lenny Kravitz, Coldplay, Björk, Queen, Tears for Fears, and others. The Dark Side, released in 2004, put a stronger emphasis on the rock element and included songs by Nine Inch Nails and the Doors…

After the impressive list of awards, sales results and chart positions all over the world, Gregorian certainly need no introduction. It is in fact a project that long has become a music genre itself.
For one more time, the interpretations of iconic pop and rock songs in monk s cowl take the listeners on a fantastic journey across all genres and decades and offer a balanced mix of classic pop and rock from the past and present. Ranging from the melancholic Angel, originally performed by Sarah McLaughlin, to recent chart success by the young British alternative trio London Grammar (Strong) to maybe the most recognizable songs from the 80s, Tears For Fears Shout, Gregorian constantly perform at a high level…

The name of Era's third studio release, The Mass, was a departure from the eponymous titles of their previous albums. "The Mass" was also the name of the album's lead single, a track which differed from Era's previous songs in a significant way: rather than forming the choral backdrop themselves, Era used a sample of 'O Fortuna' (from Carl Orff's famous 'Carmina Burana'). The actual tune is a more upbeat version of "Divano", from Era 2, but the inclusion of the samples is a great idea. Though the track ends slightly abruptly, it remains one of the most wonderfully evocative songs of the New Age genre…

Highly successful worldbeat dance project headed by Michael Cretu that broke through with the international hit "Sadeness" in 1991.
A worldbeat dance fixture of the late 20th century and beyond, having sold tens of millions of albums worldwide, Enigma were an instant success with their unlikely combination of new age tones, chilled-out club production, and samples of Gregorian chant. The project arrived with their single "Sadeness (Pt. I)," which immediately became an international hit and the calling card for their unique sound. Over the next three decades, Enigma would release upwards of eight albums and collections, many of which spent time in the Billboard charts.

Reborn is the fourth studio record by French composer Eric Levi's new age music project Era. It was issued in 2008 and marked the last time Levi presented his own original compositions on Era records - following Reborn he started adapting famous works of classical composers for his albums.

The legendary musical project Era come back with album "The 7th Sword". Through this new opus of original compositions, its creator Eric Levi proves once again that he is free from all musical dictates and still creates surprise. His music carries the listener into another dimension, with an imaginary language and a timeless sound that has already fascinated more than 10 million people around the world. This 7th album also features a new remix of the famous song "Ameno" to mark its 20th anniversary.

This collection of Gregorian chants, recorded by Dom Minier and his fellow brothers of the order of Saint-Benoit-Du-Lac, is given a contemporary twist by the introduction of carefully orchestrated instruments throughout. The uninitiated will be relieved to find translations in both French and English alongside the Latin. The opening track, “Psaume 22/Psaume 129”, is a laid back, melodic version of Psalms 22 and 129 - however, the former is actually a rendition of Psalm 23 (someone’s careless typing error will confuse the sharp-eyed Bible student!). Mistakes aside, this is a worthy selection of echoey chants which sit comfortably with gentle percussion, guitars and a violin. The Celtic feel of “Iam Christus” (Now Christ) evokes the image of a rain-lashed monastery, abandoned and forgotten by time…

Gregorian Journey (2012). Gregorian Journey is an album that draws on a variety of complementary musical traditions, but features Gregorian Chant as a common theme throughout.
