Les Goûts-Authentiques
Les Goûts-Authentiques is an early music ensemble whose goal is to introduce ‘authentic tastes’ — musical styles from the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical periods — to their audiences in a colourful and lively manner. Les Goûts-Authentiques is a reference to Les Goûts-Réunis, in which work François Couperin described the striving for a fusion of the French and Italian baroque styles during the first half of the 18th century. Couperin was convinced that this symbiosis would result in better music or even a better world. The players of Les Goûts-Authentiques vary according to the programme concerned. The ensemble is led by Jan Devlieger and has made several CDs, including A due cembali obligati for two harpsichords, The Submission based on music by the Loeillet family, and The Delightful Companion, made up of recorder duets from the Renaissance and Baroque periods.
