Alain & Palo Alto Damasio - Les Furtifs/emeute Musicale [CD]

In 2019, publisher La Volte released The Furtives, the latest novel by science fiction writer Alain Damasio. At the time of it's publication, Damasio invited the band Palo Alto to join him on stage in response to an invitation from the literary festival Oh les beaux jours !, held at La Criée - Théâtre national de Marseille.The project aimed to create a musical and theatrical adaptation of one chapter of the novel, depicting an urban riot in Marseille. Designed to give maximum space to the text, the performance brought together three narrators - Alain Damasio, Jacques Barbéri, and Sophie Zed - alongside Palo Alto performing live (Jacques Barbéri, Laurent Pernice, Philippe Perreaudin). A film directed by Gilles Bénéjam, projected onstage throughout the performance, accompanied both the narration and the music.What was initially intended as a one-off performance at La Criée led to further dates, until a booking agency, Ulysse, added the show to it's roster. Les Furtifs, émeute musicale was subsequently performed across France, Belgium, and Switzerland.The show was recorded during a performance organized by Gonzaï at La Maroquinerie in Paris. This performance was filmed and captured in multitrack audio for release on CD and DVD. The recording presents the show in it's entirety.Mastering by Norscq.
