The ensemble will present their new program "Echos de Versalles". This programme is shaped by the sound world of the French court in the early 18th century — where nuance, gesture, and colour carried as much meaning as melody. The ensemble performs on period instruments at A = 392 Hz, a pitch closely associated with French practice of the time. This lower tuning lends a distinctive depth and softness to the sound, particularly in the blend of traverso, baroque oboe, viola da gamba, and theorbo.
