Albane Tamagna - Les gens qui partent

This musical and documentary creation explores displacement, borders, and identity through an embodied, field-based approach.

Centered on the flute and enriched by electronics, documentary sound, and collected voices, the project weaves contemporary musical writing with lived narratives shaped by departure and migration. Testimonies gathered in border territories — notably around the Mediterranean and along the U.S.–Mexico border — become a core artistic material, transformed and fragmented through sound and instrumental gesture. The stage form moves beyond the concert format to create an immersive experience, where the performer’s body, space, and sound are in constant dialogue. Positioned at the intersection of the political and the intimate, Les gens qui partent does not seek to explain but to evoke, opening a space of deep listening for voices that are often unheard or marginalized.
