- Description : The ensemble is named after the first concert organization in
France (specializing in the performance of French Grands Motets); founded by Ann Dancian
Philidor in 1725. The concerts were given in the Salle des Cents Suisses in the Palace of
the Tuileries in Paris. They came to an end in 1790 with the French Revolution. The

the 18th century.
