Carmen: returning to the origins
It is an opera that can boast of being the most performed in the world. Carmen, symbol of romantic passion, tells the story of a destructive love. A universal and timeless theme set to music by Georges Bizet just 150 years ago, in 1875. An anniversary worthily celebrated by the Royal Opera of Versailles. A few notes confirm it, Carmen’s biggest hit is based on a pillage. A great heroine in an opera overflowing with great arias, this time guaranteed without plagiarism.
