Carmen's March
SKU: HL.49041671
ISBN 9783254080028. French - German.
Based on the subject of the eponymous novella by Prosper Merimee, 'Carmen' is George Bizet's last work. The composer died a few weeks after the unsuccessful world premiere in Paris on 3 March 1875. To the opera-lover of today, it is inconceivable that this work with its numerous wonderful 'Spanish' melodies and rhythms - developed by Bizet virtually 'from afar' as he had never travelled through Spain - could ever be a failure. Over the course of time, however, 'Carmen' has become one of the most popular and most frequently played operas long since.Apart from the libretto, this edition contains introductory commentaries of Kurt Pahlen who also adds information on the compositional structure and context to the musical as well as external and internal dramatic action of the opera. A short synopsis and a brief outline of the genesis bring the work into relation with the composer's entire oeuvre and life, thus offering a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction.

Especially from a musical viewpoint, the lively march Les Toréadors is one of the most popular scenes from Carmen. Tohru Takahahsi was inspired by this catchy music to write a delightful transcription for Concert Band. A true classic that will remain popular with your musicians and audiences.De France componist Georges Bizet was een briljant pianist en componist.
