Abstract

George Bizet's groundbreaking opera Carmen was first performed in Paris in March of 1875. The main character, Carmen, sings the well-known aria Habanera in the first act, scene 5. The original score accompanies the solo voice with orchestra. The texture is light at times and builds to full orchestration in the most dramatic moments.
