ComposerGeorges Bizet
Additional InformationGeorges Bizet's 1875 opera about Carmen, the colorful cigarette factory worker whose flirtations with the soldier Don Jose are forgotten in her love for the matador Escamillo, is the source for director Francesco Rosi's cinematic version of the same story. Plßcido Domingo sings the part of Don JosΘ, Julia Migenes-Johnson sings Carmen, and Ruggero Raimondi is Escamillo. Although there is nothing to fault in the singing itself, some viewers may feel that director Rosi has stayed closer to a stage production than the medium of film would warrant.
