Interview: Franck Ollu gives us his reading keys to approach the music of Luigi Dallapiccola.

Il Prigioniero & The Enclosure / Interview Franck Ollu

‘Hope: the final torture...’ Ever since a jailer called him ‘brother’, a prisoner has hope that he will be freed. The door of his cell, however, opens to reveal a long corridor that leads to the stake – the illusion of freedom thus becomes, for him, the ultimate torture. At La Monnaie, the conductor Franck Ollu and the stage director Andrea Breth recently gave us an acclaimed version of Jakob Lenz by Wolfgang Rihm, a composer with whom they now collaborate again. Alongside the 20th century masterpiece Il prigioniero by Luigi Dallapiccola, they give us Das Gehege by Rihm, in which a woman frees an eagle from its cage before killing it. The flamboyant lyricism of Dallapiccola is followed by the poetic twilight world of Rihm. The two works form a diptych that explores the ambivalent relationship between the victim and the executioner as well as general questions about personal freedom and the possible dead ends in our so-called free world.

* Warning. During the performance of Das Gehege there is repeated use of stroboscopic effects. We would like to warn people who are sensitive to this kind of lighting effect that they may experience some discomfort or in extreme cases risk suffering a seizure.
