THE PRISONER

In The Prisoner, the staging conception is the true root and the basis that leads the musical writing : each one of the 5 stands has its own individuality, which is reflected in the flute playing, and lock the flutist in a sort of imaginary prison. The music follows the wandering mind of the character facing his own thoughts in different situations, interacting with the run of events.
​
The electronic part is also conceived as a visible layer. The sound assistant is an active performer on stage, monitoring the prisoner, with either a little compassion or a little cruelty.
