Juliette Pym (bass) and Bonella Holloway (keys) form Générique Mardi, a duo channeling the raw energy of no wave through hushed, bittersweet melodies and spoken-word passages.

Performed by François Mardirossian, this eight‑hour nocturnal recital explores the minimalism tradition through repetitions and subtle variation. The programme moves between works by Philip Glass, Moondog, Erik Satie, Aphex Twin, Brian Eno, John Cage and other composers, creating an immersive, meditative and physical soundscape that invites listeners to drift in and out. A prelude DJ set by Camille Rhonat opens the evening, framing the transition from ambient textures to focused piano minimalism.

Choreographed by Christos Papadopoulos, My Fierce Ignorant Step gathers ten bodies whose mounting breath becomes the show’s engine. The piece translates performers’ respiration into kinetic waves and layered soundscapes, dialoguing with the contemporary music of Mikis Theodorakis. Drawing on the choral pulse of ancient tragedy, the work collapses collective Hellenic memory into intimate reveries — the impulse of beginnings, the buoyancy of first encounters and the spontaneous spark of early laughter. The staging is physical, precise and visceral.

Ensemble Temenos presents a program drawn from Arcangelo Corelli’s first four Opuses of Sonate a tre, tracing the emergence of the trio sonata and its two principal genres, da chiesa and da camera. The programme contrasts solemn, contrapuntal church movements with lively dance forms—allemande, courante, gigue—showing how harmonic clarity and expressive rhetoric shaped Baroque chamber music. Performed with period sensitivity, the ensemble favours architectural resonance and rhythmic drive, offering an intimate, luminous sound world.

28 August – 13 September
