Géranium - a French collective that performed music from their native Alsace, a historical region in eastern France. The group was founded in 1975 in Mulhouse during a resurgence of interest in folk music. Members searched for old Alsatian songs and studied local authors, including Jean-Baptiste Weckerlin, Joseph Lefèvre, and Louis Pinck. Accompanied by ancient instruments, Géranium sang songs in the Alsatian dialect of the German language, common in this region of France. The group still exists today. Members continue to perform Alsatian songs, but their repertoire has also expanded to include songs in other languages and a wide variety of instruments, sometimes even Eastern.
