About Vincent Dumestre
Lutenist, conductor, guitarist, and theorbist Vincent Dumestre has revived many little-known works of the French Baroque period. In 1998, Dumestre founded Le Poème Harmonique, of which he remains leader and artistic director. Often, with Dumestre himself as part of the continuo group, the ensemble mounted productions of such little-known works as Lully's Cadmus et Hermione and Cavalli's L'Egisto. Dumestre's varied talents on stringed instruments have put him in demand among other historically oriented Baroque ensembles, including Le Concert des Nations and the Ricercar Consort. Dumestre has issued more than 20 albums, including not only French and Italian Baroque music but also a collaboration with contemporary accordion and bandoneón player Daniel Brel, Quatre chemins de mélancolie. In 2021, Dumestre and Le Poème Harmonique, under the auspices of Versailles castle, issued a recording of Lully's Cadmus et Hermione.
