| Sydney Opera House: Opera Theatre, Sydney 1225, Australia Tuesday 22-Feb-11 07:30pm You have been warned. This raven-haired gypsy will sing her way out of gaol and into your heart before you know it. Just watch her. See her dance the Seguedilla. Hear her sing those dark, lingering melodies and don’t be surprised if you fall under her spell. Francesca Zambello’s celebrated production of Carmen is a vivid evocation of dust, heat and danger under the wide Spanish skies. From the bustling town square to the bandits’ cave to the bullring, the colours, the costumes, the gypsy songs and sultry moves leap off the stage. All that is needed to complete this picture is a great artist to perform the role of Carmen. Opera Australia is thrilled to introduce one of the world’s leading new interpreters of this role, Israeli born mezzo-soprano Rinat Shaham. Described in The Times as ‘unmissable’, she is a Carmen to die for. Two more great singers, Julian Gavin and Teddy Tahu Rhodes, get to fight over her as Don José and Escamillo, and young French conductor Guillaume Tourniaire shares the season with Ollivier-Philippe Cunéo. Later in the season, see Milijana Nikolic in the title role, paired with Rosario La Spina as Don José and Shane Lowrencev as Escamillo. Do not miss this colourful and exotic production, featuring all-time favourites including the ‘Toreador’s Song’ and Carmen’s seductive ‘Habanera’. Performed in French with English surtitles. Running time: two hours and fifty minutes including one twenty-minute interval. This production of Carmen is based on the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Norwegian National Opera co-production first performed at Covent Garden on 7 December 2006. | ||
