The ultimate diva, the gypsy Carmen can ignite men's desires and fill their hearts with passion at a single glance. When Don Jose, a soldier fighting in the Spanish Civil War, gets caught in her web, jealousy rages and anarchy reigns supreme. The thrilling score by French composer Georges Bizet includes some of the most popular and recognizable music in all of opera, including The Habanera and The Toreador Song.
