Carmen Bizet

Public

Sloven

Approved

Georges Bizet (1838–1875) is considered the master of French opera in the second half of the 19th century and, at the same time, an outstanding opera composer who devoted almost all of his creative energies to the theater. Bizet composed Carmen between 1873 and 1874. The libretto, which was written by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy with the composer's cooperation and at the literary suggestion of Prosper Mérimée, is considered one of the best in the entire opera literature. The famous story of a seductive gypsy woman is actually a folk drama of unbridled passion, which raises questions about love as a fleeting passion, and about jealousy and revenge, which inevitably lead to death and ruin. Bizet created a unique work, as he created a realistic opera that is difficult to compete with even the greatest masterpieces of related Italian verism.

English

Georges Bizet (1838–1875) velja za mojstra francoske opere v drugi polovici 19. stoletja in obenem za izrazitega opernega skladatelja, ki je posvetil skoraj vse svoje ustvarjalne sile gledališču. Bizet je Carmen zložil med letoma 1873 in 1874. Libreto, ki sta ga ob skladateljevem sodelovanju in po literarni predlogi Prosperja Mériméeja napisala Henri Meilhac in Ludovic Halévy, velja za enega najboljših v celotni operni literaturi. Znamenita zgodba o zapeljivi ciganki je pravzaprav ljudska drama nebrzdane strasti, ki odpira vprašanja o ljubezni kot hipni strasti, ter o ljubosumju in maščevanju, ki neizogibno vodita v smrt in propad. Bizet je ustvaril edinstveno delo, saj je nastala realistična opera, s katero se težko kosajo tudi največje mojstrovine sorodnega italijanskega verizma. Dobro oblikovani značaji te polnokrvne drame s tragičnim razpletom so z vseh strani prežeti s španskimi ritmi in cigansko melodiko ter izrisujejo okolje, iz katerega Carmen izhaja in mu ne more ubežati.
