In 1999, Mark Ellis of "Elijah's Mantle" and Christophe Terrettaz collaborates on "The Soul Of Romanticism'" a spoken-word album based on poems of Shelley, Byron, Keats, Wordsworth and Coleridge.

The work is very well received, with Japanese director Ryuichi Hiroki choosing it as the musical theme for his movie Vibrator, a film presented in avant-premiere to the 60th Mostra of Venice.

For this opus, Christophe Terrettaz draws inspiration from a number of films from independent cinema, including Un soir après la guerre of Rithy Panh, Okaeri of Makoto Shinozaki and Buffalo 66 of Vincent Gallo.

The beauty and strength, depth of feelings as well as human folly is the essence of “Les Rêves Orientaux” (Oriental Dreams).

In February 2009, Christophe, invited Kelli Ali to Switzerland, to collaborate with him on an album inspired by the short stories of the Gothic horror writer, Mary Shelley, and following several sessions between London and Switzerland, this haunting collection was eventually completed, with Kelli writing and performing the lyrics and vocal arrangements and Christophe writing and performing the piano music.
