Description
Don't miss one of the world's best-loved operas and opera's most seductive temptress, Carmen performed by The Armenian National Academic Theatre Opera and Orchestra at Dubai Opera from Thursday 6 to Saturday 8 September 2018.
Carmen is the most famous of Bizet's operas along with its unforgettable score including "Habanera" and "Toreador Song" among the best known of all operatic arias.
With its exotic Spanish setting, the opera deals with the love and jealousy of Don José, who is lured away from his duty as a soldier and his beloved Micaëla by the gypsy factory-girl Carmen, whom he allows to escape from custody.
He is later persuaded to join the smugglers with whom Carmen is associated, but is driven wild by jealousy.
This comes to a head when Carmen makes clear her preference for the bull-fighter Escamillo.
The last act, outside the bull-ring in Seville, brings Escamillo to the arena, accompanied by Carmen, there stabbed to death by Don José, who has been awaiting her arrival.
Carmen will be sung in French with English & Arabic subtitles.
