God, this must be the sexiest Carmen I've ever seen. She's simply fantastic...
22fret Totally agree!!!
I was just thinking about the same thing! I'm so in love with her
Agreed - sexiest Carmen ever!!
Yes! She gets the award for the sexiest carmen of all time!!
Good looking, charismatic and a great singer, for sure!
Ok but the way his boots tap to the beat of the music when she trips him.....satisfying af
I also loved when the desk slammed on beat!
The best Carmen I've ever seen. She takes the role not only as a singer, she lives Carmen. She is an amazing actress too!
I just recover myself after what I consider a top ten actors play ever in Opera if not the first ever. Words are missing, you just feel it straight in all your being.
Once you've seen Carmen played like this demon actress, you just know the opera from a new angle and other may sing better (which is not easy she's an extremely good singer but her French is not very impressive) they'll never reach such a degree of intensity. Because you feel it in her voice too, so that's why even with a better voice you're not to make a better Carmen! I just... yes try to recover atoms of myself gone everywhere in the universe!
Absolutely!!!!!!
Elīna ideāla Karmena,neko tik talantīgu,spožu šai lomai nevaruiedomāties
Garanca is the best Carmen ever seen

Carmen = Rosa Ponselle e la compagnie ...
Beatriz Uria Monzon for me.
Grace Bumbry and Callas killed her. Garanca is good but she’s acting too much.
Beatriz Uria Monzon x2
@@KENTIN4810 Don’t you mean Garanca is bad.
Wonderful ! I have never seen a singer so completely "possessed" by spirit of Carmen. That´s how she should be if real. With all respect to other singers, but SHE IS Carmen.
Idk... Carmen is not that sensual in the original book. We don't feel enough the essential thing : her freedom. But I suppose that's the Carmen of the opera.
Erotic so well played. She is a GREAT ACTRESS!
asif Bizet wrote the whole Opera Carmen FOR HER. I can't believe what I just saw.
@@fl.oralion I'm damn late. She's not nessecarily described as sensual but she should be "free" and her whole thing is to play with love. She's very playful and captivating.
@@job8285 of course. She's free in an absolute way, about everything, not just in love, that was my point. in this video this aspect is quite restricted but it's okay! (the scene goes like that I mean) I just thought it was more interesting in the book since she's less in her seduction role and she appears more free about every aspect of life (in the book she frequently seems like an unbearable child)
Can we talk about Elina's incredible core strength during the embrace at the end? It looks like she's falling into his arms, but he's not really supporting her. She's essentially holding a boat pose while singing at the top of her range.
Omg didn't notice. This is incredible
That's what I'm saying! Seriously when the opportunity comes I'll tell everyone xd
Ya know, when he knocked the stuff off of the desk, I gasped. It just got so real there. Like, suddenly a very hot fun.
, wrong, human interaction. I liked it.
I gasped too and needed to pause and proccess the moment lol
No one in the world can ever top Elina’s Carmen. She IS Carmen.
Jose needs to listen. She just told him she threw out a lover yesterday. He should have realized she wasn't going to stay loyal to him.
When I watch this I get that tight choked up feeling in the back of my throat that you only get when you watch something you absolutely adore, they are both just perfect, with incredible voices and the acting is so intense. I get completely lost in this opera.
same feeling here, it's too powerful
Brought to tears every time. But, they are tears from being overwhelmed by how powerful and amazing the performances are.
This performance gives me shivers all down my body. Fucking fantastic, and I'm not even a big opera fan.
What. a. chemistry. Oh my God. I'm dying.
Holy Shit! That was the most overtly erotic portrayal of Carmen I've ever seen. Incredibly great voice with superlative acting! Brava!
Absolutely! She's really a revelation as Carmen!!! And I think the impact is also intensified by the reactions of tenor Roberto Alagna as Don Jose.
Amen
Japan escape ;)
@@ikey14 So many Don Jose's are too unattractive to be convincing.
Wow. Elina's portrayal of Carmen is so unbelievably powerful. She might be the one to get me into opera.
I watch this religiously
I've seen many performances of this opera. But it has been until today that I met the REAL Carmen. Incredible!
Me too. But she is the best one.
The best Carmen that will ever be! I love you Elina!
It's like asif the genius Bizet wrote the whole Opera Carmen FOR HER. Phenomenal. She's the one.
How do they sing that close without blasting their voices in each other’s faces?
acting
Collegiate opera singer here. To some extent, there is going to be face-to-face singing, though we generally try to "cheat" our faces towards the audience both to maximize audibility to the audience and to minimize all the noise that's being directed at whoever's on stage with us (Singing in technique, opera singers can exceed 100 dB of sound - really, really loud).
Ironside Pitch Boi wow that’s not great for their own eardrums but is amazing in ours.
Becuase their voices are small and throaty, not actually proper operatic voices.
@@IronsidePitchBoi Yeah, exceeding 100DB is only possible with great technique, like Caruso, which these guys simply don’t have.
Can´t blame Don Jose I probably would have fallen too...
Lol
Same
Holy shit this Carmen is so beautiful
They forget to mention the wonderful Roberto Alagna, too! Wow!
They work so well together.
Mary Freeman he isn’t that believably a simple soldier though. He just seems like a romantic prince. Which is why the Don Juan I saw live was better.
He’s a great acting singer / singing actor, and I find him quite believable here. They have great chemistry. (And, for Trivia fans, I believe he actually was in the military briefly as a young man....)
he’s okay.
Voice like a canon. And if you watch the full opera which is available here on CZcams his acting performance is fantastic!
So amazing. Sometimes you need to step back and simply love humanity for something as perfect as this.
One of the greatest things I've ever seen. Been comparing this to other Carmens and to me it's the acting, staging and directing that takes this over the top. Of course, the singing is amazing, but when Elina combines it with such convincing character acting it becomes overwhelmingly good. With her eyes she communicates the inner thoughts of Carmen the entire time and it's memorizing. And, of course, one can't help but fall in love with her cuz she's so DAMN GORGEOUS!
Well said.
Magnifique opéra. Georges Bizet peut être fier de son chef-d'oeuvre. Qu'il repose en paix et merci pour ses superbes compositions.
My favorite mezzo. And beautiful, too.
@Bálint F.D. Lol, not even close. She’s an undeveloped soprano.
She is an undeveloped soprano. This is a mezzo: czcams.com/video/HoYBoqogflU/video.html
I can't understand if it's more pleasant to watch her act or hear her sing. Wonderful.
That has to be the sexiest performance of Carmen ever. I've seen Marilyn Horne, who many said was THE Carmen of the seventies, sing the role; and I've seen Denyce Graves, who many said was THE Carmen of the nineties, sing the role. And I have to say that neither one of them can hold a candle to Elina Garanca. In this production, she becomes Carmen in a way that I wouldn't have thought possible.
4:28 Damn they are really going for it lol
Lots and lots of chemistry
Сколько лет пересматриваю видео Элины... Но каждый раз не могу оторваться. Сколько зрелости, обаяния и женской силы в её Кармен. Вот бы увидеть вживую, это чувство дороже бриллиантов.
А поёт как !
Elina! Bravo!
Elina Garanca did not just act as Carmen, she IS Carmen. ❤️
J'aime Elina Garanca et Roberto Alagna ensemble!
wow her voice is very strong but beautiful...
but?
@@wackneyhick7129 lmao exactly!?!? STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL , NO BUTS !
@@wackneyhick7129 I believe they are using it to express surprise. It seems they are saying, "but," to also express, "and," as well as express surprise. Maybe English is a second language and they would not know, "but," is a qualifier.
I just saw her whole interpretation, and she really is the best Carmen of all times.
Do you know where i can watch it?
There is a DVD of this performance available for purchase. In addition to wherever you might usually buy a DVD, it is sold by the Metropolitan Opera and can be ordered online
Many public libraries have copies, as it is not out of print and it is a very popular version of a very popular opera.
@@narellealana2954 If you've not seen it yet, go to the Metropolitan Opera website on December 4th (any time between 7:30PM EST and 6:30PM EST the following day), and it'll be their "Nightly opera stream". Here is the schedule: www.metopera.org/user-information/nightly-met-opera-streams/ But on December 4th don't click from schedule as they'll ask you to pay. Instead, go to their main page metopera.org and scroll down to the "Nightly opera stream". You need to start before 6:30PM EST on December 5th.
Постановку М.- опера и игру Э. Гаранчи следует признать выдающейся ! Каждая мелочь продумана , - получилось яркое незабываемое зрелище ! Браво постановщику ! Браво , Элина ! Браво , БИЗЕ !
What a convincing portrayal of Carmen and such fantastic singing. Brava Elina!
!!Elina Garanca.. y Roberto Alagna....De las mejores voces de los últimos años..¡¡
El problema es que, en mi opinión, Alagna no puede cantar Carmen. Alagna es un tenor lírico. Don José necesita de una voz más dramática. Del Mónaco, Corelli, Martinucci, Giacomini tienen voz para cantar don José. No Alagna. Ahora, para mi, no hay ningún tenor con voz adapta para don José
adoroooooooooo essa segudilla, bravos, olé !
amazing! So sensual.
Près des remparts de Séville,
Chez mon ami, Lillas Pastia
J'irai danser la Séguedille
Et boire du Manzanilla.
J'irai chez mon ami Lillas Pastia.
Oui, mais toute seule on s'ennuie,
Et les vrais plaisirs sont à deux;
Donc, pour me tenir compagnie,
J'emmènerai mon amoureux!
Mon amoureux, il est au diable,
Je l'ai mis à la porte hier!
Mon pauvre coeur très consolable,
Mon coeur est libre comme l'air!
J'ai les galants à la douzaine,
Mais ils ne sont pas à mon gré.
Voici la fin de la semaine;
Qui veut m'aimer? Je l'aimerai!
Qui veut mon âme? Elle est à prendre.
Vous arrivez au bon moment!
Je n'ai guère le temps d'attendre,
Car avec mon nouvel amant,
Près des remparts de Séville,
Chez mon ami, Lillas Pastia!
Thank you much
Y
One of the most seductive melodies ever written and the stage with these superb performers lives up to it!
Yep.. hooked to the most deep parts of my being. Her voice.. Even heaven cant compete.. 😮❤
Che interpretazione ... sanguigna. Comme il faut! Sono catturato. Bravo Alagna super
Sublime Elīna Garanca. A beauty queen with an exceptional voice. Never has Carmen ever performed so well.
Bravissima la Garanca! Wonderful made this production
This woman is incredibly good.
I love the song too...it's cool.
Damn...this will stand the test of TIME.
It has already stood the test of time given as it was composed almost a couple of centuries ago. BTW, the Metropolitan opera will stream this full performance starting at 7:30PM EST on December 4th and keep it there for 23 hours thereafter, part of their free "Nightly Opera Streams".
@@jewelmarkess Not that long-1875 I think.
@@wolfieears1984 You are right. Not "a couple of centuries ago", but 150 years ago. Still enough time to say it stood the test of time.
My favorite aria from “Carmen.” And Garanca is perfect.
For my this is the best song from the entire opera!
I love the Seguidilla even more than Toreador and the Habanera, and I love this performance of it. The way this scene is played it's clear Carmen is going to eat Jose alive and spit him back up before she's through.
My favourite Carmen "Song"🤗😁🤗😁💜💜💜J'aime la opera🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶💜💜💜💃💃💃💃💃
Her voice is superb. Great acting. Love when she trips him--a great piece of business. I love Alagna.
Elina have the power to bring Carmem to the real life. Love u Elina, u are amazing!!
Phew! That was hot!
This is one of my favorite acts.
Me encanta Elina como cantante y como actriz, su Carmen es muy sensual y encantadora.
Eliana Garanca: La mejor Carmen
The best Carmen I ever seen.
Garanca is amazing.She is the best.
Perfect Opera perfect Artist.❤😍
Настоящие артисты! Вот это пение и игра - как в жизни, а не в театре.
Elina's voice is the most beautiful, strong voice that I've ever heard among all voices and pop voices too.
I never get tired of watch this! Elina as Carmen is just fire and these two together are amazing!
That guy is the luckiest man in whole world.
Spoiler alert: no he ain't.
Well, for now.
You should watch the last scene, it's here as well.
The best Carmen I ever saw and heard…..she sing with so much passion...
I Love that last note she hits! ugh!

WONDERFUL !!! BIG, BIG, BIG THANK YOU FROM SOFIA - BULGARIA - EUROPE
Just incredible! The way that they two acting is just amaizing, Elina simply the best!!
Quelle belle voix !!!bel opéra histoire de *carmen***🤔😘🌈❤️
Good grief!! Elina wiped every other singer off the table with her performance. She is just amazing. Wonderful! Roberto aldo performed well but Elina took the honours.
Прекрасные, изумительные певцы! Спасибо большое за такое прекрасное искусство!
Garanca is the best Carnen! Wonderfull !!!
C'est merveilleux :)
Le photographe - C'est plus que merveilleux! De la part d'une photographe..
She is perfect.
Excellent Elina et Roberto ensemble !!
that end... shivers *-*
La sublime ELina Garanca , oral, techniques , charisme ... Elle est tout simplement magnifique
She reminds me so much of Vivien Leigh in Gone With the Wind, especially when she smiles at 00:40. Which is rather interesting when you compare both characters!
Absolutely made me breathless with this amazing performance 👏 ❤ 🥰 Bizet Carman has always been my favourite Opera and this has just blown me away!!
Carmen. The REAL one. The pleasure is immense, dear Elina.
José had no chance resisting :D
Magistrale interprétation : Élina est formidable dans ce rôle ! Bravo
La mejor Carmen que he visto. Mil felicitaciones, un espectáctulo impecable.
"Here it is, the weekend. Who wants my love?" Damn gurl! Of course buddy be thinkin bout that 😆😆😆👏👏👏
This is really good! Bravo!
Excellente chanteuse, musicienne et actrice. Un duo sublime !
Magnificent always... Thank you.
How can she sing in that stance???!!!!
elle est magnifique
Perfection!
I just played this with my orchestra on tour... it's such a great piece :)
Am now the proud owner of this version of the Superb 🎼 Bizet Carmen 🎶 with the stunning & gorgeous Elina Garanca ❤️ money well spent today 23.03.22
Elinam fascinating as always . lovable!!!!!
The best Carmen I've ever seen too ! thank you very very very much (ps : you awesome Mme GARANCA Elina
Can I just say that as well as having great chops, she is a REMARKABLE actress. She could be a legitimate actress if she wanted- that good.
Yes. Most of the moves are director's choice, but she is a great actress regardless with the facial expression and all. I saw her at the Met in this and also in La Cenerentola, you are right.
I remember this performance like it was yesterday and am still crying with joy. Elina is magnificient.
Her voice so strong and passionate 😍
I love it 🤩
Thank you so very much for the translation, I have loved this Opera for decades!!!
une jolie Carmen Elina Roberto merveilleux ! bravo !
Quelle sensualité !... magnifique 💖💘👍
One can watch and listen to her endlessly. Very passionate and beautiful Carmen. The direction of this opera is brilliant!
Garanca IS Carmen!
She might be the one to turn me straight... Lol this was seductive and enthralling at the same time...
No one turns gay or straight... One's sexuality is NOT a choice...
I bet you're the life of every party... I assume I don't really have to inform you that my comment was sarcasm...
She almost made me turn straight too
smmurden she's the reason I'm lesbian tbh
Lol! She made me *that* much more gay...seeing her Octavian was amazing to say the least. And her Carmen is absolutely unreal. I can't even.
