The history of viol revivals dates back to the 1880s when such "historic performances" were frequent, attracting the attention of the musically learned and the socially prominent. The debate over the role of the viol in the 1880s was polarized around two positions, revival and reintegration. The formation of the Société des Instruments Anciens, a chamber-music group, played a crucial role in the success of subsequent viol revivals. The importance of composer and performer Henry Saint-George, his father, the viol builder George Saint-George, the viol collector Auguste Tolbecque, and the scholar François-Auguste Gevaert in the success of viol revivals is stressed.
