Georges Bizet - Carmen Jones

Review by manuel ramirez

Carmen Jones is an opera album composed by Georges Bizet, released in 1943. The album is a timeless classic that has remained popular among classical music enthusiasts. The album features a cast of talented performers who bring the story of Carmen Jones to life.

The music on this album is exquisite, with each track showcasing Bizet's incredible skill as a composer. The album is full of beautiful melodies, intricate harmonies, and dramatic orchestration. The music is a perfect complement to the story, which is a tale of love, lust, and betrayal.

The performers on this album are exceptional. Each singer brings their unique style and interpretation to their role, creating a dynamic and engaging listening experience. In particular, the performances of the lead roles, Carmen and Don José, are outstanding. The chemistry between the two singers is palpable, and their duets are some of the highlights of the album.

It is unfathomable to me that the film completely cuts out the part of the song with Frasquita's and Mercédès' dueling romantic fantasies. Did the film makers not realize that the whole point was to contrast their lightheartedness with Carmen's obsession with her own death? Jeez.

I thought the film generally was very good. Dorothy Dandridge who played Carmen Jones, her singing voice was dubbed. The singer was Marylin Horne, the American Mezzo Soprano.Granted, Richard Rogers did not have too much to do with the music. A very capable composer, However there was no need to interfere with Bizet's superb score.
