Carmen by Bizet, og. 03 ots. 2022, Noiztik (2022/2022), Zuzendaria Dmitri Tcherniakov,, Zuzendaria Emmanuel Villaume, José Miguel Pérez-Sierra, La Monnaie, Brussels, Belgium

Carmen : or how an opéra-comique with an eventful creation in 1875 has today become a real myth, feeding the collective imagination of images, preconceived ideas and very precise melodies. Here, forget the cigar maker, the tobacco factory, Seville and its popular festivals! For his third production at La Monnaie, Dmitri Tcherniakov offers a radical show, inscribed in a realistic setting, at the heart of the myth - and therefore projections and fantasies - that surrounds our heroine. At the center of the drama, men and women of today, emotionally disillusioned, who are about to "play" Carmenfor therapeutic purposes. Quickly, the simple role-playing game turns into an uncontrollable mechanic in which a man, consumed by passion, no longer manages to extricate himself from his character. Emmanuel Villaume and José Miguel Pérez-Sierra will alternately conduct this score with an immediate passionate charge, each note of which is at the service of the drama.
