Named after the French pitch for operas A = 392 Hertz, the ensemble is mainly interested in French literature of the 17th and 18th centuries. Since French music was increasingly influenced by its Italian counterpart during the 18th century, the connection between the Goût Français and the rival Italian taste is also an important topic for the work of the ensemble. Founded in 2011, the young ensemble since then regularly performs at prestigious locations such as the Innsbruck Festival of Early Music, the Händel-Haus Halle and the Konzerthaus Berlin. On this recording they present rare French cantatas and chansons.
