Carmen is a story of love, passion and jealousy. The protagonists are the beautiful and sensual carmen and Don José, a young sergeant that she is seduced. In the story breaks into another woman, Micaela, who would become the wife of José, also at the behest of the mother of him who is dying. But Carmen is bowled over by Escamillo, a famous and glamorous bullfighter, and Jose is blinded by jealousy....
 

Carmen had only a moderate success in his first in 1875, perhaps because of his subject is not conventional, but soon became immensely popular and has remained so. Its soundtrack features a myriad of wonderful melodies including the sultry "Habanera" and the "Seguidille" Carmen, the air of Don José "Le fleur que tu m'avais jetée", and the invigorating "Toreador" of Escamillo.
