Carmen and Carnival with Dudamel by Sierra, R., Bizet, Saint-Saëns, -tól (2024/2024), Karmester Gustavo Dudamel, Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, United States

Experience two nights of pure whimsy as Gustavo Dudamel leads Carnival of the Animals. Brother-sister piano duo Sergio Tiempo and Karin Lechner march with lions and waltz with elephants in the playful and imaginative suites by Saint-Saëns. In between two enchanting showcases of symphonic Spanish dances by Roberto Sierra, Operalia prize-winner Rihab Chaieb transports us to Seville’s sensuous town square, singing “with a razor-sharp presence that really suits the larger-than-life persona [of] Carmen” (Broadway World).
