| Track listing | Act I: Carmen and her friends, Frasquita and Mercédès, are entertaining Zuniga and Moralès. A crowd of soldiers arrives with the celebrated bullfighter Escamillo. He is instantly attracted to Carmen. Carmen, Frasquita and Mercédès are left alone with Dancairo and Remendado, who have a plan for which they need the girls' help. Frasquita and Mercédès are ready, but Carmen says she cannot join them because she has fallen in love with José and is expecting him. José's voice is heard in the distance. He declares his love for Carmen, who dances for him. Act II: Several Months Later. Black-market smugglers come by night to the border. Carmen's and José's love affair has run its course: she has grown tired of him and he, though still obsessed with her, is tense and unpredictable. Frasquita and Mercédès hope to read their fortunes in a pack of cards, when Carmen cuts the cards, they foretell only her death. Act III: When the roll-call sounds from the barracks, José is torn between his military duty and his feelings for Carmen. At the moment José decides to leave, Zuniga returns. José is fiercely jealous and starts a fight with his superior officer. Carmen's associates return and deal with Zuniga. José realizes that his army career is over and he now has no choice but to join them. Act IV: Carmen, a searing depiction of a woman who craves love, but creates obsession and jealousy, is one of the most popular operas ever written. Bizet's Spanish-inflected score is bursting with passionate melodies and famous numbers such as Carmen's seductive 'Habanera' and Escamillo's 'Toreador song'. |
