The ensemble's namesake, Vivi Cantando, is derived from "O come sei gentile" found in Monteverdi's seventh book of madrigals. The name translated means "live singing." While they love collaborating with instrumentalists, their mission in creating this ensemble was to celebrate the singing arts and to create a true human experience through the sung word.
