Over 70 artists (instrumentalists, soloists, choir singers, dancers, and a children's choir), under the direction of Matteo Carminati, bring Bizet's Carmen to life: a dazzling opera where passion, freedom, and tragedy ignite beneath the skies of Seville.
More than 70 artists—instrumentalists, soloists, choir singers, dancers, and a children's choir—under the musical and stage direction of Matteo Carminati.
From the very first notes of the overture, Georges Bizet imagined a score of dazzling clarity and overwhelming tragic power, clothing Prosper Mérimée's Carmen in a radiant yet fatal splendor. The arias, duets, choruses, and dances of this masterpiece—one of the finest achievements of French Romantic opera and still the world's most frequently performed opera—are both intoxicating and vibrant, bringing to life a stage where love is born and dies beneath the blazing skies of Seville and its festivals.
For more than a century, French opera has been embodied by Carmen: the gypsy, the barefoot princess, the symbol of boundless freedom.
