Summary
Julian Napier's cinematic film, originally shot in 3D, perfectly captures The Royal Opera's production of Bizet's masterpiece, Carmen, one of the world's most popular operas, full of intimate solos, gorgeous ensembles and rousing choruses. Christine Rice is the fiery Carmen, a gypsy woman whose love is as passionate as it is fleeting. and Bryan Hymel is her jealous lover Don José. Seville is brought to vivid life in Francesca Zambello's compelling production, with ranks of soldiers, crowds of peasants, gypsies and bullfighters as well as a magnificent horse, a donkey and even some chickens! With the full force of the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House and the Royal Opera Chorus conducted by Constantinos Carydis, this is a spectacular musical and dramatic experience. Filmed in High Definition and recorded in true Surround Sound.
Sung in French with English, French, German, Japanese and Korean subtitles
