George Bizet's timeless work, Carmen, combines a powerful theme with absolutely iconic music. One emotional melody follows another, and you can hear the colourful orchestras, the sophistication of the parts, the rhythmic dances and the songs.
Czech mezzo-soprano Ester Pavlů will perform as Carmen. She belongs to the role, both on domestic and European stages, just like a red rose.
Don José will be played by the most sought-after tenor of today, Joseph Calleja. It will be his first appearance at the Krumlov Festival.
The trio of exceptional voices will be joined by the local baritone Svatopluk Sem.
Selected parts of the iconic opera will be performed by the Prague Philharmonia under the baton of Tomáš Brauner. Jiří Bubeníček's choreography will be choreographed by the soloists of the Rome Opera.
The story of love, unbridled passion and the power of fate, first performed on stage 150 years ago, will close the 34th year of the Krumlov Festival.
