Carmen
Bizet's Carmen remains one of opera's most popular and dramatically perfect works. This 1998 RCA Red Seal recording features legendary soprano Leontyne Price as Carmen, with tenor Franco Corelli as her doomed lover. Herbert von Karajan conducts the Vienna Philharmonic and Vienna State Opera Chorus at their finest. Bizet's score is endlessly melodic and dramatically gripping—the Habanera, Toreador Song, and Seguidilla are unforgettable. The music moves effortlessly from comedy to passion to tragedy. This classic recording captures all the exoticism, romance, and human complexity of the story with impeccable musicianship and vocal artistry. Essential opera listening.
