An account of a man's last agonizing moments, Danielle Palardy Roger's Bruiducœur, prières des infidèles is a secular ritual involving three characters: HIM, who is dying; HER, the ironic observer; the CHOIR and SOLOISTS, empathic and omnipresent.

Drawing on such musical sources as Cuban lullabys, East Indian music, folk, jazz, Yoruban songs and impressionist harmonies, Bridges was recorded between May 1992 and May 1993 at The Music Gallery in Toronto, Ontario.
