Carmen – Opéra de Montréal

Concert, show

The Orchestre Métropolitain, under the direction of Jean-Marie Zeitouni, will infuse this unforgettable music with all its beauty, truth, and intensity, while the stars of the lyrical art Rihab Chaieb, Arturo Chacón-Cruz, Magali Simard-Galdès, and Ethan Vincent will embody the enchanting characters of this production. Representing freedom and passion, the fiery Carmen captivates everyone who crosses her path in Seville. When the loyal soldier Don José succumbs to her charm, he abandons everything for her and descends into a destructive obsession. Carmen’s attraction to the charismatic toreador Escamillo triggers a fatal jealousy in José. Claiming her freedom, Carmen will confront death.
