Classical Guitar Arrangements from Bizet's Opera Carmen. One might think that it would be impossible to arrange the music of Georges Bizet?s opera, Carmen, for solo classic guitar, but Néstor Ausqui has done it! While the guitar is an intimate and sweet-sounding instrument, it does not have a broad dynamic range; yet, as Dionisio Aguado proclaimed in his Nuevo Método para Guitarra of 1843, the classic guitar?s expansive palette of tone color gives it the ability to emulate ?a miniature orchestra?. These characteristics make the guitar the ideal instrument to reflect both the character and sensuality of the dances that occur throughout Bizet?s Carmen?Aragonaise, Habanera, Seguidillas, and Danse Bohéme?as well as Carmen?s sober ?Chant de la Mort?. Recommended for the advanced guitarist, Carmen Suite is written in standard notation with extensive digitation and occasional drop-D tuning. In Néstor Ausqui?s Carmen Suite, ??the guitar both sings like a human voice and accompanies itself, giving the work an irrefutable guitar identity. The characteristic feeling manifested in Spanish dance is now expressed through the guitar with a full and defined instrumental singularity.? ? Guillermo Rene? Alvarez Musicologist, Professor at the Instituto Superior de Mu?sica, Universidad Nacional del Litoral-Argentina

La composition d??uvres pour piano n??tait pas le domaine de pr?dilection de Georges Bizet. Ses ?uvres pour piano sont peu nombreuses et peu significatives du point de vue de la forme du contenu et du caract?re. Il existe toutefois une exception: ses ?Jeux d?enfants? pour piano ? quatre mains compos?s en 1871 suite libre de douze pi?ces de genre courtes mais particuli?rement marquantes qui constituent un charmant petit chef-d??uvre. Avec une sobri?t? et une simplicit? empreintes d?esprit fran?ais il cr?e dans chacune de ces miniatures une atmosph?re unique et incomparable. L??criture et les moyens harmoniques utilis?s anticipent d?j? Ravel et Debussy! Certaines deces audaces furent pourtant malheureusement gomm?es au moment de la premi?re ?dition de 1872. C?est pourquoi il est d?autant plus important que notre ?dition urtext tienne ?galement compte du manuscrit autographe de Bizet. La pr?face et les remarques signalent toutes les variantes de la premi?re ?dition et offrent ainsi un aper?u passionnant de l?histoire de l??dition.

Libretto Background and Photos-A riveting story of fatal attraction between a beguiling strong-willed gypsy and a naïve but passionate soldier who falls under her spell Georges Bizets Carmen pulses with seduction obsession and deadly betrayal. It was reviled at its Parispremiere where its realism and perceived amorality proved shocking but it became one of the most popular and highly regarded operas of all time.

But soon enough Carmen works her wiles on him to escape imprisonment and a later twist of ever-looming fate forces him to completely abandon the world he knows and followCarmen into a life of crime. When the bullfighter Escamillo wins Carmens affections Don Josés explosive jealousy clashes with Carmens resolve to remain true to herself leading to one of operas fiercest confrontations and most unforgettableconclusions.
