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.
A particular attention is given to the wide and mostly unexplored repertoire of "sacred theatre": liturgical dramas and dramatic liturgy, collective representations, manifestations which evoke the religiousness of an age whose echoes are not extinguished yet. The aim is not so much to meticulously catalogue a collection of archaeological relics as it is to faithfully reconstruct the musical heritage of the Middle Ages as a living fragment of a culture long since past but not lost.
La Reverdie has enjoyed the regular collaboration of various other musicians: among the others Doron David Sherwin, one of the leading specialists of cornetto, as well as a versatile arranger, singer and percussionist. La Reverdie has been a customary guest at a number of the most prestigious festivals of early music in Europe .
The group has recorded for the Italian State Radio RAI, the Bayerischer Rundfunk, Südwest Rundfunk, WDR (Germany), BRT3 (Belgium), ORF 1 (Austria), Antenna 2 (Portugal), RNe (Spain) and France Musique, as well for Arcana with the co-sponsorship of the WDR. Its most recent recordings received very often the highest award from the French monthly Repertoire des disques compacts and the Diapason d'Or of the month; the CD "Speculum Amoris" received the Diapason d'Or de l'Année from the French press in 1993.
The ensemble is giving seminars on several repertoires of the music of the Middle Ages in various Italian Institutions.
