Roberto Alagna est, à mon avis, le meilleur Don José sur le plan vocal et dramatique. Il nous fait ressentir toutes les nuances de cette passion mortifère. Élina Garanca est une superbe Carmen.
This was just SO REAL! These two, boy can they not only sing, but their acting is incredible. It's so rare to have both in an opera. I think this is my favorite version, so far. Absolutely stunning performances by both.
Love the evolution of Jose in this scene from hopeful pleading to descent into a murderous insanity. And, Carmen, consistently fearless in the face of death. Magnificent singing actors.
These two have an incredible chemistry together. I had the pleasure to see both of them in another production and it was electric. The sheer physicality of their interpretation of this final scene makes it so vibrant and real . Both of them are absolutely brilliant vocally also.
Roberta est extraordinaire ,quel bel artiste . Quel comédien, quel beau don José, bravo bravo Bravo aussi à carmen,superbe. Ça c'est du spectacle. Merci à vous.
KAROLINA YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL ADORABLE SEDUCTIVE RAVISHING CAPTIVATING SEXY CAPTIVATING AND PASSIONATE YOUR BEAUTY IS PHENOMENAL IF BEETHOVEN WERE ALIVE TODAY YOU WOULD BE HIS MUSE ❤
Dang. That's one sick son-of-a-gun. He wiped her blood on his face, and put the ring back on her finger. Okay. I'm not usually one for modernized versions, and I was about ready to can this whole concept, but this gave me everything the Bizet score intended and then some.
Dana Fripp I feel the same. This is just about the only modern version of an opera (almost) that really works. The stage producer really knows his Carmen.
@@mckavitt yes indeed. It's organically terrifying. The director peeled away all of the excess, all of the "Carmen-esque" clichés, and entrusted these two incredible performers with the bare-boned, psychologically dramatic intensity of this moment. Not one shred of unnecessary histrionics. The characters' thoughts, their individual objectives, motivate every note, every move (When she gives him back the ring with such eerie serenity...I think I died a little bit with her. What a powerful dramatic choice...) This is an authentic singing actors' production. I would have loved to have been in the rehearsal space to see this creative process in action.
This has been one of my go-tos in arguing that so-called "Regie Theater" can work. At the time, composers often used the distant past and/or exotic locales to hide criticisms about their own society. Being that opera is theater and therefore a living art form, it can be totally enlightening when the director uses the work to highlight a problem that is real to many people (e.g. domestic violence) to make an important point about the society we are living in today. Way too often, directors approach an opera as if to prove to the audience that the premise of the libretto is bogus, but I find that the most radical approaches are successful when they meet the opera pin good faith and supplement/highlight the point the opera is trying to make rather than arrogantly trying to contradict it.
A great scene, stripped down to its most basic elements, its human interaction. Then to see that shot of the conductor, Sir Mark Elder, at the end, apparently devastated by what he has just been part of. Marvelous!
Wow! This is how to make opera current! This is how we tell the stories of a thousand women without making them unrelatable and kliché! This is How the Carmens of today die in the real world. This is the best interpretation i’ve ever seen! Bravi!!!
Fantastic performance. They both really brought this scene to life. Amazing vocal beauty but much much more than that, a really thrilling horror. This is one of the most shocking finales of all operas, and finally here the two interpreters made it look and sound like one.
Don't always like updating from the original time frame, but this works and is so raw in a way traditional productions aren't. Brava Alagna and Garança
Jim Cadena Raw, yes, until Carmen meets the Toreador & realises she can attain a better life... & a better level of love. Finally a man who understands & accepts her as she is. Alas, it is too late.
Não há tradução para os meus sentimentos, quando assisto estes dois. O que diria Bizet ao ver esta interpretação? Elina e Roberto, que química perfeita! Obrigada por esta emoção!❤
Chocante! Confundiu até o maestro! O problema é que estória e de uma cigana, porém valeu a adaptação! Excelente! Há mulheres que são como Carmen. E existem homens possessivos como Don José e que não se conformam em perder.
Los cantantes soberbios el director mis respetos los músicos todo todo siempre me encanta esta ópera sobretodo con estos cantantes Gracias señor Bizet.y gracias al que la subió subtitulada.
Bonjour, L'ensemble de l'œuvre (musique - histoire - interprétation jouée et chantée) est absolument fantastique, ajouté à toute l'émotion dégagée laissent une empreinte indélébile
Потрясающе играют, потрясающе поют, вот таким НАСТОЯЩИМ Должен быть театр, чтобы российская молодежь заинтересовалась...... Может быть наша Вишневская смогла бы так играть и спеть, а все остальные бездушные и пустые....
This is a powerful interpretation that highlights the violence to which Don Jose is driven. Returning the ring to her finger and dragging her off underline his need to possess her. No Don Jose moves me, though, as does that of the magnificent Jose Carreras; his desperation brings me to tears.
CARMEN It's you! JOSÉ Yes, me! CARMEN I'd been warned that you were about, that you might come here; I was even told to fear for my life but I'm no coward and had no intention of running away. JOSÉ I'm not threatening, I'm imploring, beseeching; our past, Carmen - I forget it! Yes, together we are going to begin another life, far from here, under new skies! CARMEN You ask the impossible, Carmen has never lied; her mind is made up. Between her and you everything's finished. I have never lied; all's over between us. JOSÉ Carmen, there is still time, yes, there is still time. O my Carmen, let me save you, you I adore, and save myself with you! CARMEN No, I'm well aware that the hour has come, I know that you are going to kill me; but whether I live or die, no, no, I shall not give in to you! JOSÉ Carmen, there is still time, O my Carmen, let me save you, you whom I adore; ah! let me save you and save myself with you! O my Carmen, there is still time, etc. CARMEN Why still concern yourself with a heart that's no longer yours? No, this heart no longer belongs to you! In vain you say "I adore you" you'll get nothing, no nothing, from me. Ah! it's useless, You'll get nothing, nothing, from me! JOSÉ Then you don't love me any more? (Carmen is silent.) Then you don't love me any more? CARMEN No, I don't love you any more. FINAL DUET
NewElizaD I think you can find it on the Operadeparis.fr site. It’s a production of 2017 at Bastille Opera House by Calixto Bieito which was then programmed again with Anita Rachvelishvili as Carmen in 2019.
I have seen the video of these two doing the same scene at the Met. Fir some reason the lyrics were much easier to hear and understand in this one. I don't know if that is a quirk of the recording or a directorial choice, but i will happily trade a lot of scenery to be able to follow the song. Christopher Nolan should take note while we are at it.
I've not seen the full opera of this production of Carmen. I need to so I know if Escamillio still was still a bull fighter. The singing is still magnificent.
Well, since they're singing the toreador song in the background as he fights the bull, I would say probably. Or maybe he's giving a rock concert instead. :)
I saw this staging and 8n my memory Escamillo is still a bull fighter though he doesn't wear torero clothes. The staging is one of a semi-modern carmen, with few decorum. So the gyspies use old cars, the 1st act is in a military camp with just a flag pole, the 4th act is in this circle of dust that symbolises à Bull fighting arena. Escamillo wears a smoking but he is still a toreador and is not visible is the 4th act. I think the director wanted to build a closed area to concentrate around Carmen and Jose's relationship. Escamillo is a Bull fighter but he can be in this staging any civilian (neither a military personnel, nor a gypsy)

This opera is a masterpiece of music and drama. The world will never be able to repay Bizet for his genius ! So many productions ; so many interpretations ; so many different singers ... but, no matter -- there are only two singers who made Bizet proud -- their names will be forever joined to this opera ! We haven't heard this opera until we have heard Leontyne Price & Franco Corelli. So great were their performances, all we needed were their voices ! What tenor can break a man's heart like Corelli ?
Roberto Alagna est, à mon avis, le meilleur Don José sur le plan vocal et dramatique. Il nous fait ressentir toutes les nuances de cette passion mortifère. Élina Garanca est une superbe Carmen.
D'ailleurs, j'aime beaucoup l'analyse qui en est faite sur cette vidéo.

When Roberto snaps into rage while he is hugging her.. that was frightening and so believable

MAGNIFICENT!!!.....Alagna is so underrated.....he's fabulous as Jose in this......and Garanca's Carmen is rich and voluptuous......
Powerful ending!! Alagna always delivers a passionate performance and he and Garanca are excellent together. Very haunting!! C❤❤❤
Alagna has always had a special place in my heart - and he sure does rip it out here. Geeze.
Wow! This is how to make opera current! This is how we tell the stories of a thousand women without making them unrelatable and kliché! This is How the Carmens of today die in the real world. This is the best interpretation i’ve ever seen! Bravi!!!
Emma Sventelius The absolute same is true for me. I even uploaded it!
You know what scared me the most? How much Alagna looked like Robert Blake! That really made the realism of it hit home.
Dana Fripp Brava!! Never thought about that. (Didn’t see the resemblance 😕). Lucky me!
What a great performance by both singers Roberto has unbelievable stage talent .
I would lie and turn him to authorities and therapy...Oh, true, did these existe in those days? ...we are lucky in 2020
Fantastic performance. They both really brought this scene to life. Amazing vocal beauty but much much more than that, a really thrilling horror. This is one of the most shocking finales of all operas, and finally here the two interpreters made it look and sound like one.
OMG!! This is the best I have ever seen.....they're both amazing!!
This is damn damn great performance!!!
Don't always like updating from the original time frame, but this works and is so raw in a way traditional productions aren't. Brava Alagna and Garança
Jim Cadena Raw, yes, until Carmen meets the Toreador & realises she can attain a better life... & a better level of love. Finally a man who understands & accepts her as she is. Alas, it is too late.
That was magnificent. I had shivers.
Too real ! Congrats. Great performers. Thank you.
The conductor was awe struck.
Sir Mark Elder is a truly wonderful, very great conductor.

Great performance Bravissimo Elina is the Best CARMEN !!!!!!!
Superbi 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
What a real Carmen and José... bravissimi❤
I don't think they'll ever top the stage direction of the 2009 Met version. There were so many clever ideas that added so much to the experience.
Cette version est bien meilleure pour moi.
I couldn't help but cry omg!
Wonderful DUET & performance... BRAVO!!!
M
Un bellissimo duetto, modernizzato nei costumi ma fedele allo spirito dell'opera. Ottimi cantanti.
I am just speechless. Bravo, bravissimo!
Splendido.
Los cantantes soberbios el director mis respetos los músicos todo todo siempre me encanta esta ópera sobretodo con estos cantantes Gracias señor Bizet.y gracias al que la subió subtitulada.

Элина и Роберто вместе просто чудо и поют и играют прямо изумительно а вживую их слушать просто праздник души
Breathtaking! Can't help crying!
Господи, как же это потрясающе!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Breathtaking
Amazing performance.
Just two people on an empty stage, and yet ...
Удивительная органика исполнения, спасибо большое!!!
Que intensidad , ambos increíbles!
Fantastic!
Breathtaking!!!!
Great Performancees, Bravo Elina and Roberto !!!!!!! Bravissimo
In one word, SUPERB!!!
Потрясающе играют, потрясающе поют, вот таким НАСТОЯЩИМ Должен быть театр, чтобы российская молодежь заинтересовалась......
Может быть наша Вишневская смогла бы так играть и спеть, а все остальные бездушные и пустые....
I’m trembling..
J'y étais.. Je suis ravie! Ils sont les meilleurs! Bravissimo Roberto, bravissimo Elina et Ildar!
This is a powerful interpretation that highlights the violence to which Don Jose is driven. Returning the ring to her finger and dragging her off underline his need to possess her. No Don Jose moves me, though, as does that of the magnificent Jose Carreras; his desperation brings me to tears.
I love this
Aqui do Brasil. Que emocionante.
Trop fort !!!! j 'adore !
maravillosa Elina Garanca,
Espectacular!!!!!!
Quel Duo. A eux seuls ils sont le spectacle. Emouvant.
AMAZING
it's great, the modern setting really brings this scene to life. this is how women still die to possessive, sick men. I love 6:25
Minchiaaaaaaa che bomba questo finale!!!!
straordinari
Maravilhosos!
Это потрясает! Тысяча браво!
Это совсем не то, что они же делали в Мет ранее
bravo
Wooow !
la cara del final del director ...
Bravi 🎼🌷🌷🌷🌷🎼
Mamma mia se son bravi. Una prova pazzesca (infatti sono distrutti)
Очень натурально
CARMEN
It's you!
JOSÉ
Yes, me!
CARMEN
I'd been warned
that you were about, that you might come here;
I was even told to fear for my life
but I'm no coward and had no intention of running away.
JOSÉ
I'm not threatening, I'm imploring, beseeching;
our past, Carmen - I forget it!
Yes, together we are going
to begin another life,
far from here, under new skies!
CARMEN
You ask the impossible,
Carmen has never lied;
her mind is made up.
Between her and you everything's finished.
I have never lied;
all's over between us.
JOSÉ
Carmen, there is still time,
yes, there is still time.
O my Carmen, let me
save you, you I adore,
and save myself with you!
CARMEN
No, I'm well aware that the hour has come,
I know that you are going to kill me;
but whether I live or die,
no, no, I shall not give in to you!
JOSÉ
Carmen, there is still time,
O my Carmen, let me
save you, you whom I adore;
ah! let me save you
and save myself with you!
O my Carmen, there is still time, etc.
CARMEN
Why still concern yourself
with a heart that's no longer yours?
No, this heart no longer belongs to you!
In vain you say "I adore you"
you'll get nothing, no nothing, from me.
Ah! it's useless,
You'll get nothing, nothing, from me!
JOSÉ
Then you don't love me any more?
(Carmen is silent.)
Then you don't love me any more?
CARMEN
No, I don't love you any more.
FINAL DUET
מתורף !
Bravissimo
Look at the desperation on Don Jose's face. And Carmen does nothing to temper that rage. It was bound to end this way: Tragically of course.
Son es traordinaros que duo es hun lujo
Impressive!
casi lloro, casi me meo jejeje estremecedor
Нет ни слез, ни зла, тем паче,
От иных разлук.
Ты ушла, а я не плачу?
Щаз, порежу лук!
Они явно связанные одной цепью.
Io piango...
That conductor looked 😂like he was about to pass out by the end poor guy
RIght at the crucial moment; after he stabs her, an ADVERT! Bravo! What a way to kill the climax...
Got my ad *just before* he stabs.
Кармен умрёт но останется свободной!
Do you know the link or torent when I can watch all this production? I look everywhere and found nothing...

Grandes interpretaciones y está muy bien ver los músculos de Alagna... pero algo rarito el vestuario y tremenda arrastrada que le meten a la Carmen.
😂
