Bizet's Carmen Trailer (2023/24 Season)

Acclaimed English director Carrie Cracknell brings a vital new production of one of opera’s most enduringly powerful works, reinvigorating the classic story with a staging that moves the action to the modern day and finds at the heart of the drama issues that could not be more relevant today: gendered violence, abusive labor structures, and the desire to break through societal boundaries. Dazzling young mezzo-soprano Aigul Akhmetshina leads a powerhouse quartet of stars in the complex and volatile title role, alongside tenor Piotr Beczała as Carmen’s troubled lover Don José, soprano Angel Blue as the loyal Micaëla, and bass-baritone Kyle Ketelsen as the swaggering Escamillo. Daniele Rustioni conducts Bizet’s heart-pounding score.

享負盛名的英國導演嘉莉．格力尼爾為歌劇界其中一齣最為鏗鏘雋永的作品創作了全新舞台製作。她將劇情推進到現代，為經典故事注入了新的活力，更探討了當代的焦點議題——性別暴力、不人道的勞動體制，以及衝破社會規限的渴望。讓人眼前一亮的年輕女中音艾古爾．阿克梅辛娜飾演複雜多變的主角卡門，與四位實力雄厚的歌劇演唱家攜手演出：男高音彼得．貝科扎瓦飾演卡門纏身的情人唐荷西；女高音安吉爾．布魯飾演忠誠的米凱拉；而男低音凱爾．凱特森飾演英俊瀟灑的埃斯卡米洛。丹尼爾．魯蒂奧尼擔任指揮，帶領樂隊演奏比才扣人心弦的音樂。
