Neven Crnić (Escamillo)

With his opera CARMEN, Georges Bizet crossed boundaries in several ways: a scandalous female figure like the spirited gypsy, who defends her freedom at all costs and only plays with the love of men, had not been seen in an opera until 1875. Carmen represents a clearly sensual position, she only enters into relationships on the basis of independence and equality - a clear contradiction to the bourgeois morality of the time. The depicted milieu of workers and petty criminals also brought completely new social classes to the venerable opera stage. All of this caused such an offense at the premiere that the opera failed the audience. But the provocation turned inexorably into a fascination after Bizet's untimely death a few months later, which made CARMEN one of the most performed operas in the world to this day. The Habanera of Carmen or the Torero song of Escamillo are among the most famous melodies in music history.
