GuidOpera brings Bizet's Carmen to the stage in a modern, hot-blooded Spanish setting. Carmen is a reckless, fiercely independent woman who lives entirely on her own terms, and the story builds to a tense, dramatic finale.
Josefine Andersson sings the title role, opposite Niels Jørgen Riis as the soldier Don José and Frederik Rolin as the bullfighter Escamillo. Signe Asmussen takes on Micaëla, and the cast also includes Zuniga, Paevatalu Frasquita, Julie Husballe Hansen, Sibylle Glosted and Hans Lawaetz. The music is performed by a quartet with piano, guitar, accordion and clarinet, and the production includes flamenco dance alongside the best-known arias.
