I grew up listening to this version of Carmen, but have never seen it before. I've seen many others perfotm this, but in my opinion, none reach Berganza's level. thank you so much for uploading!!!
Really good production, Domingo is in top form in every way and while I admire Berganza's voice, and she's a saucy little sausage here, her interpretation is, well, a tad too two-dimensional for my taste. I have this on one of my Domingo playlists and listen to it regularly. The Great Domingo is a force of nature, the greatest ever. Thanks for the upload!
Uppity G ... ::: You're absolutely right about Domingo. He sounds so young & "high". His costume is great ! Leontyne Price has blinded me to any other singer in this role. For all of her _Aida's,_ _Carmen_ is her greatest vocal performance.
Placido Domingo's voice is unassailable, as usual, but in this role Jose Carreras is my man. His Don Jose, betrayed and goaded by Carmen, is heartbreaking in proud restraint and lovestruck agony.
@HappyHounde Berganza is forever young, besides, who said that Carmen wasn't older than Don José? She must have been pretty much experienced, and he a young and innocent soldier.
Hi do u have Carmen with placido & Denise grave Carmen opera ? Also placido & Elena zaremben Carmen opera ? Let me know a lot health problems would cheer me up thank u if u have them can't post I would pay u to put on DVD thank u
This is one of the most touching final scene of this opera. Both principals wonderful musically and dramatically. They are both flawed characters - Carmen responsible, really for Don Jose's
It's quite strange hearing Domingo sing in French, after hearing him sing in Italian as well as Spanish. Even when he sings in English, it's quite interesting too. But, he still sure pulls everything off, no matter what he sings :).
The sound quality is wonderful ; unfortunately, Bizet's masterpiece was cut-off at the end. If any opera ( music ) should be heard to completion, it is this operatic triumph of human emotions.
no, unfortunately no - Escamillo in this performance was Ruggero Raimondi and Micaela is Katia Ricciarelli... I prefer audio version with BERGANZA (of course), Domingo, Milnes and Cotrubas. My the most favourite recording of Carmen!
Carmen es una opera de fineza musical y elegancia francesas pero su espiritu es racialmente español y mediterraneo. Esto es indudable para la mayoria. Domingo&Berganza lo 'hacen' tan bien en este rol porque participan de TODAS esas caracteristicas anteriores. Ese es el truco¡
Very few tenors manage to sing the last lines -from “vous pouvez m’arrêter”- with such feeling, such dramatic pathos and, yet, such delicate, perfect phrasing, interesting dynamics and smooth legato. In fact, these last lines sung by the tenor are like the cherry on the cake, and the whole dramatic and musical momentum of the Opera is summarised and reaches its summit in those final bars, since we hear the Carmen theme for the last two times. Orchestras and conductors often pull it off, but tenors, unfortunately, too often fail to render the composer’s intentions into sound. By the way, even the B-flat that Domingo sings in the duet sounds gorgeous. And of course Berganza sounds great and fiery. A wonderful version all in all.
Bizarre changes to the final pages- do we have Oeser to thank for that? This was certainly very good, but would recommend Jane Rhodes 1960 recording with Albert Lance for an astounding unforgetable experience as these 10 minutes of great music can be!
Grande interpretazione, sia dell'uno che dell'altra, eppure devo dire che nessuno supera la perfetta interpretazione di Don José da parte di Jonas Kaufmann (2006, dir. Antonio Pappano, meglio ancora che nel 2009, dir. Daniel Barenboim, regia Emma Dante).
One or two nice moments - eg laugh at end before stabbing and some good indifferent expressions towards Jose but she's not the greatest Carmen. A little old for the part and clumsy in her movements. Voice too light in places. Fantastic performance by Domingo.
I hate the costumes, but the singing is good. Although I think that Berganza is a master in Rossini. She sang Rosina in Il Barbiere di Siviglia like no other.
(cont from below) loss of his economic and social position and he, being so obsessively possessive. Maybe they really deserved each other. Wonderful performance nevertheless. Opera has to take you there and this scene did.
This is ok. I respect Berganza but it seems like she is singing 'the same ol' Carmen' Stock gestures, little real involvemen. Domingo is magnificent. I guess Elina Garanca has spoiled me forever in this role. A real singing actress…without equal. t
youI say that because all women die from him? because that great lord, serial murderer, or dangerous ciminal has nothing. Besides, he's not who escirbio the script of the opera. did you understand me?
Anda que la gente es bruta! La Carmen de la berganza es histórica y su interpretación perfecta...ya quisiera la Migenes llegarla al tobillo. En fin... hay gustos pa tó!
Domingo? - come sempre fedele al suo stile cioè vocalmente limitato dalla sua tecnica /inesistente/ e la Sua vocalità nasale,di più si serve di una pronuncia orrenda. livello artistico sotto lo 0.

SIETE DUE BRAVISSIMI TENORI, TALI DA SENSIBILIZZARE IL PUBBLICO.
Domingo is magnificent and Berganza is magnificent. End of statement.
Two singers that completely understand their parts. Superb!
" C`est toi?"
" C`est moi!"
LOVE that line!
Tethers the tension between Carmen and Don Juan wonderfully.
Not only they sing great,but they are also great actors.
Merveilleux ! Bravo ! Domingo est superbe dans ce rôle !
Magnifico Dúo final . Gran interpretación , Teresa Berganza & Placido Domingo.
I grew up listening to this version of Carmen, but have never seen it before. I've seen many others perfotm this, but in my opinion, none reach Berganza's level. thank you so much for uploading!!!
Magnifique duo !!!! Mille bravos au grand maestro ....💓😂🌷🌷🌷
To SymphonyBrahms: I totally agree. Their voices are gorgeous and Placido is appropriately bedraggled. Yet still handsome. How tragic this all is.

Leontyne Price has blinded me to any other singer in this role. For all of her _Aida's,_ _Carmen_ is her greatest vocal performance.
Cliff Gaither: I so agree! Price is a stunning, sultry Carmen. It's one of my most prized recordings of the opera.
Браво, браво, браво!!!
Duetto passionale con due stupendi interpreti
Fantastic!!!
Dos grandes de la opera, ademas de dos madrileños, que orgullo par Madrid, y toda España
besides everything; the costumes are superb too!
Lovely singing! Brava! Bravo!
❤❤❤Great performances by both protagonists ❤❤❤
Magistral interpretación
Who's with me 2023
Magnifique duo ❤
He was so young!
Perhaps forty years old..
Placido Domingo's voice is unassailable, as usual, but in this role Jose Carreras is my man. His Don Jose, betrayed and goaded by Carmen, is heartbreaking in proud restraint and lovestruck agony.
@HappyHounde
Berganza is forever young, besides, who said that Carmen wasn't older than Don José? She must have been pretty much experienced, and he a young and innocent soldier.
fantastici tutti e due!
This performance took place in Paris Opera Comique (salle Favart) which is the place where the Bizet opera was créated in 1875.

I like it when she says: "Carmen jamais n'a menti." Er...yes, you did lie!!
GRANDEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
❤❤❤

Hi do u have whole opera of this u could please post or know were I can get a lot health problems would cheer me up thank u
Какой это год записи? Доминго здесь просто юный )
no, unfortunately no - Escamillo in this performance was Ruggero Raimondi and Micaela is Katia Ricciarelli... I prefer audio version with BERGANZA (of course), Domingo, Milnes and Cotrubas. My the most favourite recording of Carmen!
Also Berganza and Vanzo
If any noble male opera principle/Don Jose is gonna take me out, let it be Placido.
I sang in this in the opera in Cambridge.. wonderful...so dramatic...we were all amateurs but could have been professional!!
Yikes, Domingo is wonderful!!!!
Bravissimo Domingo
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's actually Don Jose.
Que trágico final..🥲
Lmao I know this is immature but when Carmen took of the ring she was like "come at me bro!"

I have seen the production Kaufman Antonacci.
I think they sing very well but I think Bumbry is amaizing.

Me too, though I don´þ know why!
Lluvia Azul wrote: ¨ Two bigs of the Opera , and besides from Madrid , pride for Madrid and whole Spain¨....
is there any version where they actually sing in spanish?
Carmen has probably been sung in Spanish somewhere in Spain or Latin America at one time, but I haven't heard of any Spanish language recording.
One or two nice moments - eg laugh at end before stabbing and some good indifferent expressions towards Jose but she's not the greatest Carmen. A little old for the part and clumsy in her movements. Voice too light in places. Fantastic performance by Domingo.
No, it's the voice who is important and Berganza is perfect.
Two Spaniards playing Spaniards singing in French. That’s opera.
To Bonnie Speeg: I agree.
I hate the costumes, but the singing is good. Although I think that Berganza is a master in Rossini. She sang Rosina in Il Barbiere di Siviglia like no other.
(cont from below) loss of his economic and social position and he, being so obsessively possessive. Maybe they really deserved each other. Wonderful performance nevertheless. Opera has to take you there and this scene did.
Oh come on Lluviia Azul. It's opera for Pete's sake. It's part of the drama.
Plasindo domingo...

youI say that because all women die from him? because that great lord, serial murderer, or dangerous ciminal has nothing. Besides, he's not who escirbio the script of the opera. did you understand me?
Berganza as une très belle voix mais n'est pas assez belle pour jouez Carmen :)
Estoy de acuerdo
Berganza canta hermoso pero no es Carmen. Esta demasiado correcta le falta salvajismo
Anda que la gente es bruta! La Carmen de la berganza es histórica y su interpretación perfecta...ya quisiera la Migenes llegarla al tobillo. En fin... hay gustos pa tó!
No está mejor la Migenes
I don´t like this arranegemnt so much.
No wait, I HATE it.
sera en serio porque todas mueren por el? asi puede ser y me gusta mas, este Gran Señor, de asesino serial, o criminal pelogroso no tiene nada....
¿Perdonamos al ignorante que se atreve a decir que le actriz Maria Ewin pueda ni de lejos acercarse a La simpar Berganza? no se yo, no se yo...
ПЛОХО!!!
out of style again.Very bad french phrasing!!
Domingo? - come sempre fedele al suo stile cioè vocalmente limitato dalla sua tecnica /inesistente/ e la Sua vocalità nasale,di più si serve di una pronuncia orrenda.
livello artistico sotto lo 0.
La Berganza?- dal 1958 avevo sentito dal vivo più di 40 Carmen soprani, mezzosoprani, contralti...
e per dirla tutta questa Signora mi fa pensare più tosto alla mamma della Carmen…
viva la frigidità umana!
ps.tutti e due si servono dei suoni di qualità bruttissima.
viva La Mediocrità !

I agree with Charles Henry loved Elina Garanca and Roberto Alanga

There is also a Carmen with Berganza and Alain Vanzo 1982 ,audio! More french

Carmen = contralto .
Berganza non era neanche uno mezzosoprano vero .
Dal vivo era così .
Le registrazioni truccate mi interessano poco.
