In No Here, Escudero transfers elements traditionally associated with escape rooms into the concert setting, transforming the audience into active participants. He challenges conventional modes of concert listening by assuming the role of the escape-room game master and introducing explicit rules and conventions shared by ensemble, conductor, and audience. Central to the work is the conscious experience and shaping of decision-making processes as an integral part of the musical flow. A key element of the piece is an interactive programme booklet, which must be read and used during the performance, making audience participation an essential component of the musical experience.
The concert was broadcast live on Deutschlandfunk Kultur. A recording is available at the following link:
