“The marimba is the percussion instrument that has fascinated me the most. Since my early years as a musician, I have endeavoured to introduce the marimba to music lovers and composers. Commissioning new works provides an opportunity to work with composers to create an original Canadian repertoire. In this CD, you will discover exceptional works that are the result of my collaborations with some of our best composers.”

“Montreal percussionist Catherine Meunier shines throughout.”
– David Olds, Wholenote
“Some of the best and most creative music for percussion occurs when percussionists collaborate with composers. Night Chill, the debut recording of Catherine Meunier, is a perfect example.”
– John Lane, Percussive Notes
“Meunier and her collaborators, D’Arcy Philip Gray and Louis-Philippe Marsolais, are all virtuosi who play with passion and conviction. I hope we will hear more from them in the near future.
This recording is highly recommended.”
– Eric Hung, CAML Review
