The Ensemble Temenos with Chouchane Siranossian presents a concert dedicated to Jean-Féry Rebel at the Lutheran Church of Geneva. This program delves into the instrumental music of Rebel, a violinist with the King’s 24 Violins and a composer for the Royal Academy of Music, who was both a student and legacy-bearer of Lully. Featured are the Trio Sonata “La Flore”, the solo violin sonatas from Opus 2, and the Sonata No. 7 in C minor “Tombeau de Monsieur de Lully”. The performance highlights the fusion of French dance and Italian influence, celebrating Rebel’s discreet virtuosity and characteristic stylistic harmony.
“To Hell with War!” is a satirical parody of “Ubu Roi” by the Studio d’Action Théâtrale, under the direction of Gabriel Alvarez. Drawing inspiration from Jarry, the performance condemns war as a grotesque and tragic charade. Actors portray absurd characters that lay bare the senselessness and brutality of conflict, staging a macabre dance against destructive capitalism.
