Royal Opera House Gepubliseer op Jan 16, 2015
Jonas Kaufmann as Don José sings the Flower Song ‘La fleur que tu m’avais jetée’ with Anna Caterina Antonacci as Carmen in Act II of Francesca Zambello’s production of Georges Bizet’s opera Carmen, Die Royal Opera, 2006.
Carmen was based on a popular novella of the same name by Prosper Mérimée, wat die Franse lesers gelok met eksotiese verhale van Spanje. Die onstuimige kombinasie van passie, sensuality and violence initially proved too much for the stage and Georges Bizet’s opera was a critical failure on its premiere in 1875. Bizet is kort ná, never learning of the spectacular success Carmen would achieve – it has been staged over 500 keer op Covent Garden alleen.
