Performance History of Carmen


The first performance of Carmen took place on 3 March 1875. In the audience were Charles Gounod, Jules Massenet, Vincent d'Indy, Léo Delibes and Jacques Offenbach. According to Halévy's diary, the premiere did not go well. The critics were scathing, claiming that the libretto was inappropriate for the Comique. However, a few critics, such as Joncières and the poet Théodore de Banville, praised the work for its innovation. Banville lauded the librettists for writing characters that were more realistic than those normally seen at the Opéra-Comique. Nevertheless, with the negative reviews, the opera struggled to make 48 performances in the first production and closed the following January. Towards the end of the run, the management was giving away tickets wholesale in a vain attempt to fill the seats. Despite the critical reaction, the principals enjoyed successful careers, with Galli-Marié re-creating her portrayal of the title role in the first performance in Italy (Naples) in 1879, in Spain and England, and then from 27 October 1883 in Paris again.

At this second production at the Hofoper in Vienna on 23 October 1875, the public had no stake in the traditions of the Opéra-Comique or the genre and on the home turf of German music nothing recalled Wagner in the least, so they were able to appreciate Carmen on its own terms.

Following the well-received run in Vienna, the opera was seen in 1876 in Brussels (February), Antwerp (April) and Budapest (October); by 1878 it was being performed in St Petersburg, Stockholm, London, Dublin, New York and Philadelphia and in 1879 it reached Australia (Opera House, Melbourne, 14 May). The first performance in Spain was on 2 August 1881 at the Teatro Lirico Barcelona with Galli-Marié; Madrid saw it on 2 November 1887 at the Teatro de la Zarzuela.

The title role was written for a mezzo-soprano, but the full score published in 1877 introduced higher (soprano) alternatives for Carmen, and this has led to sopranos performing and recording the role; contraltos have also occasionally portrayed Carmen. The singer must not only have a great range, but also exhibit superior dramatic skills in order to portray Carmen's complex character, and be able to dance convincingly on stage.

Several pieces from this opera have become popular away from the stage. The Flower song, the Toréador's Song and the Habanera are favourites with singers.

Carmen, The Opera


Carmen is a French opéra comique by Georges Bizet. The script (libretto) of
Carmen is by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, based on the novel of the same title by Prosper Mérimée, first published in 1845, itself influenced by the narrative poem The Gypsies (1824) by Alexander Pushkin.The Carmen opera premiered at the Opéra-Comique of Paris on 3 March 1875, but its opening run was denounced by the majority of critics. Carmen was almost withdrawn after its fourth or fifth performance, and although this was avoided, ultimately having 48 performances in its first run, Carmendid little to bolster sagging receipts at the Opéra-Comique. In October 1875 it was produced in Vienna, to critical and popular success, which began its path to worldwide popularity. Carmen was not staged again at the Opéra Comique until 1883. Since the 1880s it has been one of the world's most performed operas and a staple of the operatic repertoire. Carmen appears as number four on Opera America's list of the 20 most-performed operas in North America.

Storyline of Carmen:


The story is set in Seville, Spain, c. 1830, and concerns the eponymous Carmen, a beautiful Gypsy with a fiery temper. Free with her love, she woos the corporal Don José, an inexperienced soldier. Their relationship leads to his rejection of his former love, mutiny against his superior, and joining a gang of smugglers. His jealousy when she turns from him to the bullfighter Escamillo leads him to murder Carmen.

Miley Cyrus on Twitter Goodbye

Miley Cyrus, who disappointed many of her teen fans by deleting her Twitter account last week, today posted a home rap video on her Facebook page by way of explanation.

The Hannah Montana actress, whose father has since begged her to rejoin the popular microblogging website via his own homepage, rapped: 'Yeah the rumours are true, I deleted my Twitter. Can you believe it, I got to two million.

In one of her last 'tweets', Miley Cyrus wrote that Liam Hemsworth, her co-star in upcoming film The Last Song, wanted her to delete her Twitter account 'with good reason.' In the video, Miley Cyrus referred to the post, rapping: 'No it wasn't because my friend told me to. Y'all know very well what you say, I don't do.

"The reasons are simple. I started tweeting about pimples. I stalled living for moments and started living for people." "The Disney favourite went on to blame the media for reporting on her status updates."

"Everything that I type and everything that I do. All those lame gossip sites take it and they make it news." '"'I want my private life private, I'm done trying to please. I ain't living for tabloids, I'm living for me."

On Thursday, the singer's father, Billy Ray Cyrus, urged his daughter to return to the site via his own Twitter homepage. The country music star wrote that she 'can't leave everyone now,' adding: 'We r countin on u.'
