October 25, 2018 is the 180th anniversary of Georges Bizet

This year we are celebrating the 180th anniversary of the composer's birth. Throughout the short life course, Bizet managed to create musical works that have become the personification of operatic art. Thus, the opera "Carmen" - the pearl of French musical culture, Habanera, Seguidilla, Escamillio's couplets and other musical pieces from it became the classics of the opera genre.

We bring to your attention musical compilation with the compositions from the opera “Carmen” - the pieces by Carmen (Habanera “L'amour est un oiseau rebelle”, Seguidilla “Pres des remparts de seville”, Gypsy song “Les tringles des sistres tintaient” and divination scene “En vain pour eviter”), Michaela (Aria “Je dis que rien ne m'épouvante”), Escamillo (Toreador couplets), choir of boys from the first act. The opera Pearl Seekers is represented by a duet of Nadir and Zurgi from Act 1.

The biography of one of the greatest composers of the Romantic era is in the section “Authors”.
