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.

A prelude DJ set by Camille Rhonat opens the evening, framing the transition from ambient textures to focused piano minimalism.
