I had no idea Sir Simon Rattle was such a good flamenco dancer...

[CyranAforever]

magnifica scenografia e coreografia finalmente adeguata: geniale il flamenco! Lei è una splendida Carmen, ma questo si sa :-)

[cantanteporsiempre]

The best carmen ever. I like her very much because her strenght comes from the very inside. She is so powerful, brava María.

POR DIOS, QUE BUENO

[Loemsa]

Maria Ewing est géniale dans tous les rôles qu'elle interpréte : Elle a fait une super Rosina dans "Il barbiere di Séviglia" un sympathique Chérubin dans "Le nozze di FIgaro" , une émouvante Didon dans "Didon and Aeneas" et enfin une merveilleuse Carmen ! ^^

i love carmen(: , this song reminds me to the book of c.s lewis THE horse and his boy (:

[Anibaal]

Qué bien que está la Ewig, no la conozco. Vi un par de videos de ella cantando Salomé de Richard Strauss, algo tan distante a la Carmen de Bizet. Sorprendente. Si pueden tirar más datos de esta cantante, se agradece.

[Zatschana]

My favourite version. Wonderful....

[raphaelarj]

Flamenco is one of the most beautiful type of dances I've ever seen...is sexy and elegant, just amazing and not that easy to learn.

Great job, I love this video.

Una de las mejores versiones que he visto. María Ewing se pasa, dando muy bien el personaje y una expresiva voz de verdadera mezzo. La coreografía de Cristina Hoyos impecable, así como el bailaor Juan Ortega, me gustó la gitana rubia que baila con el. La orquesta muy bien, Zubin Metha comienza lento y va acelerando de a poco durante el canto y se dispara impresionante al final, que dinámica. Todos tendrían que ver esto, gracias sidneyclfonseca.

why do they always slow this tempo down? one of the things that makes this piece exciting, as well as challenging, is that it is fast.. other than that, Ewing is fabulous and so is the orchestra.

[MADMAD2002]

I think they slowed it down for the dancers. Flamenco is pretty hard to do to this piece, considering how fast it is.

[prisoner24601]

The tempo may be a BIT on the slow side but it is meant to start slow. The opening of the act is Andante and the tempo does not speed up until the second verse, which is exactly what Mehta does here. There is another tempo change later and then a presto at the end but the piece is supposed to start slow.

Where, when(date), and who? It's Ewing but where (Italy? England?) Who's the orchestra etc.

[sidneyclfonseca]

Royal Opera House, The Royal Chorus Opera, Zubin Mehta, Coreography Cristina Hoyos, I dont know when.

Sidneycifonseca:

Can you post the "Street Urchins" from this production?

[fdvirtudes]

This is a 1991 production, staged by Nuria Espert (although she is not responsible for the flamenco choreography). The flamenco dancer is Juan Ortega.

(já agora, dizer "ciganos dançando" é um pouco vago, pois estamos perante bailarinos profissionais de reconhecido gabarito)

[njattack]

I wonder if the Queen saw this production with Ewing. I would say yes.
