This chamber opera, composed in 1979, is freely inspired by a news item that occurred in a Scottish archipelago in 1900: the extraordinary and forever unexplained disappearance of three lighthouse keepers ...

At the Edinburgh court, a commission of inquiry questioned officers who, responsible for bringing supplies to a lighthouse, found it deserted without understanding the reason. Then, a flashback confronts us with life in the lighthouse of the three missing guardians, sharing their solitude between mist and raging waves. To pass the time, we play cards, we sing, we try to escape the past which is becoming more and more present.

The Lighthouse by Davies, From (2022/2022), Directed by Robert Bouvier,, Conductor Valentin Reymond, Théâtre du Passage, Neuchatel, Switzerland
