Le Poème Harmonique
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Le Poème Harmonique is a musical ensemble founded in 1997 by Vincent Dumestre to recreate and promote ancient music, in particular that of the 17th century. Using rare instruments such as the theorbo, the lirone, the tiorbino and the arpa tripla, Le Poème Harmonique aims to recapture the poetry of ancient music. The early 17th-century French and Italian madrigal is a special interest. Le Poème Harmonique also teaches singers in collaboration with the Centre de Musique Baroque (Center for Baroque Music) at Versailles. The group's recordings with Alpha Productions have met with considerable success.
