Agnes Baltsa has the brightness and volume I prefer in singers. She doesn't swallow the sound. Then again, it's almost a theater voice in some places.
Agnes Baltsa's use of chest voice is so satisfying to the ear. It adds such an edge and clarity to the whole performance.
I agree so effectively effortlessly performed
Bravo
I totally agree, until she doesn't have any breaks in her voice when making the change from chest to head.
The way Balsta performs Carmen is absolutely stunning love her voice the way she acts sings and looks is wonderful 👏 the costume she wears too looks so authentic. 😁
7. Agnes Baltsa, she's amazing❤❤❤
I love all of them,but Agnes Baltsa is my favourite!
Agnes Baltsa, no doubt I agree in all voice, technique, interpretation, physique du rôle, absolutely authentic and perfect Carmen in this recording
ELINA, HANDS DOWN. Had the opportunity to see all of the opera Carmen with her as lead, not knowing who she was. I was simply, simply blown away with her voice and especially her acting. For me ELINA, HANDS DOWN.
definitely the best
@@niojedaoNot even close.
7. Agnes Baltsa, she's just perfect !!
Agnes Baltsa, no doubt.
Ditto on that, Baltsa will never be surpassed for this performance.
For me, Agnes Baltsa is the best too, I love her voice
It was my first idea inmediately after seeing video title :D
Amen to that.
1st Elina Garanca - wonderful performance
2nd Agnes Baltsa
3rd Anna Caterina Antonacci
4th Rinat Shaham
Agnes Baltsa!!!!!
Unbedingt!
It's just.. a simple fact.
I have two ears, and that's why i go for her.
Others are also good, though. Somehow in this video, most of them are younger than Frau Baltsa, but if u see Carmen of Frau Baltsa in her younger age, it would be much easier to be enchanted by the character. definitely meet another world of Carmen. Still i love her in any age. My one and only Carmen.
I totally agree with you.
Agnes Baltsa
Baltsa,siempre Baltsa!!!! ❤️
I adore Rinat Shaham's voice. It's so rich and powerful.
Baltsa and Obraztsová undoubtedly
Agnes Baltsa is the best !! 🤩
Obraztsova is my favorite
Agnes Baltsa...the best...❤️💖
I love Maria Ewing, because she really becmes Carmen: she sings and acts beautifully. I also like Antonacci
Voice, Agnes Baltsa. Acting, Elina Garranca.
OMG no one can top Elena Garança. She wins in my personal opinion. Wow!
Mi preferida es Elina Garanca. Es el tono de voz q más se ajusta al personaje. También me gustaron la 3, la 5 y la 8.
Agnes baltsa is fantastic
I love AGNES BALTSA.
Agnes Baltsa, para mi la mejor ella canta con el alma y el corazón
Without doubt, in terms of singing, expression & acting my top 3 by far are 1 - Agnes Baltsa, 2 - Elena Garanca (very close sesond) and 3 - Ana Caterina Antonacci (although I find her voice a bit too bright for Carmen). My favourite Carmen - who, alas, never sang the part on stage - is Maria Callas!

Voice: almost all of them 👍🏼
Act: Maria Ewing / Elina Garanca 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Para mim,as melhores Carmen:Agnes Baltsa e Elina Garanca.
Agnes Baltsa is a natural choice. But my heart screams Maria Ewing.
Elina Garanca e Anna Caterina Antonacci , difícil, todas são divas arrasadoras
Agnes Baltsa, and with Jose Carreras as Don Jose, a heartbreaking performance!
Maria Ewing is the easiest to understand- she really articulates. And I love that she takes her time.
Да, она легко живет в роли. Я ее обожаю 🥰
Anna Caterina by far. Her timing, enunciation of words, and voice are perfect for this song.
She is so beautiful and mesmerizing! I absolutely believe Anna was born for this role!
Agree with you
My humble opinion: the best singer is Agnes Baltsa. Others have other qualities in addition to good singing (acting, humor, looks) that make them very nice to watch, such as Anna Caterina Antonacci, Maria Ewing, Anne Sofie von Otter, Elina Garanca.
Agnes Baltsa is even better as Carmen herself ! ;-)
AGNES BALTSA the best.
Oksana Volkova is great.
I'm trying to sort them out and darn... They're each so unique!
I love her brightness and consistency. She's one of the top contenders IMHO.
What a great idea for a video. Thank you for having put this togther.
8 Oksana and 11 Elina are absolutely amazing!
BEST Carmen ever...Elina Garanca. Her voice, her tempo, her intonation is incredibly perfect!!!
and the way she acts, unsurpassed…
Sinceramente não acho que sua voz de mezzosoprano tenha a expressividade e profundidade suficiente para as áreas altas da habanera, mas como atriz e nas notas graves ela é a melhor das contemporâneas
Agnes wins this. She has good vocal and physical acting, and good technique.

Elina Garanca.
#11 Elina Garanca is the best Carmen. Her singing is spectacular AND she is incarnation of the sultry, provocative, cheeky Carmen.
#7 Agnes Baltsa is amazing as well.
Elina Garanca. ÚNICA en ese rol. También me encanta la interpretación de Julia Migenes, llena de fuerza...
Elina Caranca Brilliant
Maria Ewing. Period.
Baltsa is the perfect personification of Carmen - and her performance is outstanding in every respect. There's only one Carmen who I'd say is Baltsa's equal - and I cannot remember her name right now! Sorry. The overall directional quality of this performance was superb and no doubt contributes.
The "BEST" carmen is the one you actual attended and enjoy,
Fantastic Voices, Elina ist the greatest.
Elina Garanca and A.Caterina ❤
1)Agnes Baltsa, 2)Ana Caterina Antonacci, 3)Elina Garanca, 4)Waltraud Meier.
11 Elina Garanca
I love anita,she is something new in opera history! Brava Anita!
Maria Ewing performs it in pure French. She acts just as a simple gypsy girl. Her emotions, the manner of singing and speaking are the most natural. I easily empathize with her from the first sound. Thus I count she's the best.
Garanca by far
For sheer vocal strength, Elena Obraztsova. For lynx-like femininity, Maria Ewing. For athletic sexiness, Anne Sofie von Otter. For subtlety and sleekness, Waltraud Meier. For a combination of fiery passion and secure technique, Agnes Baltsa. If I also had it my way, I would have loved to hear Emma Calvé, Emmy Destinn, Aurora Buades, Armida Parsi Pettinella, Bruna Castagna, Gabriella Besanzoni, Gianna Pederzini, Friedel Beckmann, Anny Konetzni, Helena Braun, Ebe Stignani, Elena Nicolai, Giulietta Simionato, Martha Mödl, Blanche Thebom, Jean Madeira, Suzanne Juyol, Nell Rankin, Irene Dalis, Irina Arkhipova, Rita Gorr, Gisela Schröter, Shirley Verrett, Viorica Cortez, Grace Bumbry, Isolde Elchlépp, Nadine Denize, Marilyn Schmiege, Kathryn Harries, Ildiko Komlosi, and Michaela Schuster.
There is a recording of Destinn singing Carmen, which is, unfortunately, one of her best. She wasnt a consistently overall performer, but if you are only interested in vocal mechanics aka technique - then she is a vocal mechanic but she’s usually a bad performer. Pity, she had a bad teacher and it’s evident to those with ears.
Antonacci, it's sounds clear, and articulated.
Elina Garanča veličanstvena(magnificent)
Agnes obio!
Лучшее исполнение - 10!!
Garanca, Baltsa, Antonacci
#10. Anna Caterina Antonacci is the best.
Ana Caterina Antonacci es la mejor voz, con porte, presencia y encanto en el escenario.
Está amplificada. Y su voz de pecho cambia de timbre
Macche' Antonacci, la migliore e' la Obraztsova
Mi favorita Elina Garanca el cabello castaño le sienta muy bien me gusta más así que rubia
Best interpretation 2 - Maria Erwing. Best Chorus from 6 - Rinat Shaham
Grace Bumbry was the best carmen ever! No one can top her metallic voice ❤
Magnifiques
I like the brightness and acting of #1 Elena Obratzova.
Weird that it's in different keys! I thought key was absolutely defined by the composer.
Not sure what you mean. It's in the same key. The tempo is up quite a bit, but not the key.
Anna Caterina is best 🥰🥰🥰she's active on the stage
Top 3: Waltraud Meier, Agnes Baltsa, Elina Garanca.
Grace Bumbry and Elina Garanca are the best Carmens
For me Agnes Baltsa is the best!
Great video,i love all
Elina Caranca 💕
Anita Rachvelishvili does it more slowly so you can take in the singing and words better. Others seem rushed in comparison. I love her interpretation.
Each singer is so different, and their direction is so different that they're hard to compare.
I agree, her performance was my favorite.
Out of all of these - I'm voting for Agnes Baltsa
Obraztsova
Elina Garanca
Baltsa
Dzięki za taką pieśń i wspaniale wykonanie thank You danke spasiba wielkie dzięki Ryszard Kulesza
Спасибо за подборку. Жаль не было Татьяны Троянос, самый красивый голос.
good
The best is Baltsa. No competition. Obraztsova looks and sounds like a drag Queen, Ewing plays the role like a spoilt brat, a charming Cherubino but Carmen? No. Von Otter, Carmen? Joke. She should have stuck to Handel. Volkova is new to me but I really liked her performance, wonky sets and all.
maria ewing period
Elina Garanca najbolja.
7 para mim é a melhor
Baltsa, Elena, Ewing, Meier, schneider... well most of them do it great
Ecxelentes interpretes de la obra maestra de Bizet ,CARMEN la habanera mas conocida ,mi predilecta despue de Maria Callas es Anna Caterina.
Oksana is also so fresh! Brava! #8
I notice a little mistake, it is Elina Garanca, not Caranca and for me is the best Carmen I ever seen.
Thanks Ioana! Unfortunately it's difficult to change it now :(
Elena Obraztsova gets my vote
She 's more gypsyesque
Elina Caranca
Maria Ewing (2) - the best Carmen 2:06 😎👏🌹💖
Agnes Baltsa (1) Elina Garanca (2) ..
anna caterina for sure
Elina Caranza best and EO 2
La piu grande e senza dubbio nr.13 FIORENZA COSSOTTO. Tutte le mezzosoprano sono lei stesse.Fiorenza e Carmen, come l'ha vista Prosper Merrimee
ANNA CATERINA, por su hermosa manera de pronunciar e interpretar la obra, además, siempre he pensado que las artistas cuya lengua natal es el francés son quienes mejor se desenvuelven en esta hermosa obra maestra.
She is italian...
Para mí sin duda Elina Garanca
