Livermore Valley Opera - Carmen | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Sept 28, 29 |
Livermore Valley Opera - Carmen Thrilling but dangerous, the captivating Carmen is one of the most vivid characters in all of opera. Set in sultry Spain, Bizet's Carmen tells the story of a beguiling gypsy, who sets her sights on a naïve but passionate young corporal, tracing a thrilling tale of seduction, obsession, and deadly betrayal. Carmen is full of sizzling opera hits, including the famous "Habanera" and the irresistible Toreador's song. Opening in Paris in 1875 Carmen was a main driver of the new Verismo style of opera—passionate but realistic singing and stage action. Fully staged with elaborate set, chorus, excellent orchestra, and award-winning singers. Directed by Bay Area favorite Eugene Brancoveanu, who also sings the dashing toreador, Escamillo. Sung in French with English projections. Separate Gala dinner ticket.
