As is appropriate for a cinematic reconceptualisation of a play set on an 'isle full of noises', Prospero's Books is full of music. However, having studied The Tempest for A-level many years ago, my memory played me false -I had remembered Caliban's line as referring to an island full of voices. By the time I had discovered this error (which had me initially down the path of creating the soundtrack entirely from sampled voices taken from a multitude of sources), the overall conception of the score had become essentially vocal, with settings of the majority of the song texts Shakespeare included in the play.
