She has the best smile.

Many recordings have been made of Bizet's "Carmen" but Rise Stevens' recording (RCA) is still my favorite. I wish I could have seen her perform but she had already transitioned into arts management. She really was good!

@LordMgls She had more than ample opportunity to deepen her interpretation, and REALLY "took off," so to speak, in that classic Met production from the 1950s, staged by Tyrone Guthrie, designed by Rolf Gerard, and conducted (for the first couple of seasons) by Fritz Reiner, and later by Monteux, Kozma, Rudolf, Mitropoulos, and Morel. I wish that there were a kinescope or a film copy of the 1952 closed-circuit TV telecast of CARMEN (from a live Met performance) that could be transferred to DVD!

We live in the woods, too many trees. Dish couldn't find a way to get reception. Drat.
Risë Stevens was slender in a day when most sopranos were heavy; she had a grace few others possessed. She was the "Carmen" that Bizet envisioned when he wrote the opera.
She became a director at the Met and ruled with an iron hand in hiring/firing. Knew a tenor once who kept trying for the Met but no-go.

I love the 20th century & find your story fascinating. I was born in 1980 and didn't get into opera until 2001. I love classic opera singers like Rise Stevens. But although opera has changed a lot in our new century, you can still hear classic Met radio broadcasts on Dish Cable TV's Sirius Music channels. They still show live Met broadcasts on TV (KCET) and some movie theaters show them if you look for them.

In the early days of TV (and I speak as one who's lived through those days), there were some truly high-quality programs on the limited channel selections. At least once a month, there was a live production from the Met. This is one such moment. Those were the days! And yes, her hair was a fiery red.

Did we just find the best Carmen?
Look at that expression! She seems to live the character! What a power!
