Inspired by Romance lyrics (reverdies) celebrating the return of Spring, the ensemble la Reverdie was founded in 1986 by two pairs of sisters, all singers and instrumentalists, with the intent of exploring the musical repertoire of Europe from the High Middle Ages to the end of the 14th century.

The painstaking attention to authenticity with which la Reverdie prepares its programs is only one of the numerous means through which the ensemble strives to communicate the vitality, meaning and unaffected harmony of everything it presents to its audience.
