This is the libretto of Carmen, an opera in four acts. Composed by Georges Bizet with a libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic HalÃ(c)vy, Carmen premiered in Paris in 1875 and has since become one of the most popular and frequently performed operas in the world. Set in Seville, Spain, the opera tells the story of Carmen, a captivating and fiercely independent Romani woman, and her tumultuous relationships with the soldier Don JosÃ(c) and the bullfighter Escamillo.
This edition offers the complete libretto in English, translated by Theodore Baker, making it accessible to a wide audience. The story of love, jealousy, and fate continues to resonate with audiences worldwide, securing Carmen's place as a timeless masterpiece of the operatic repertoire.
