✍❤✅Georges Bizet "Carmen". The libretto and music found a lot of both fans and opponents. Connoisseurs, accustomed to the "refined manners" in the melodies and instrumentation of the Paris Opera, shuddered when they heard almost to the brutality energetic, full of live energy of genuine feelings rhythms and melodies. Failure? You can't say that, because the opera has been performed thirty times, and some melodies have started to conquer not only music connoisseurs, but also the street. Meanwhile, professionals were still arguing about the longevity of "Carmen". French critics and audiences were somewhat shocked by the "square" plot of the opera, the appearance on the stage of everyday events in which the lower classes took part.
