| Publisher Description: Incredible as it seems today, Bizet's opera Carmen was coolly received at its 1875 premiere at the Paris Op ra-Comique; critics condemned its subject matter as lurid and its music as overly Wagnerian. Now hailed as the composer's supreme achievement, this colorful, passionate work continues to delight listeners around the world with its emotional, atmospheric music and the originality of its conception. |
