God, this must be the sexiest Carmen I've ever seen. She's simply fantastic...
22fret Totally agree!!!
I was just thinking about the same thing! I'm so in love with her
Agreed - sexiest Carmen ever!!
Yes! She gets the award for the sexiest carmen of all time!!
Good looking, charismatic and a great singer, for sure!
Ok but the way his boots tap to the beat of the music when she trips him.....satisfying af
I also loved when the desk slammed on beat!
Garanca is the best Carmen ever seen
naelisdu77
Carmen = Rosa Ponselle e la compagnie ...
Beatriz Uria Monzon for me.
Grace Bumbry and Callas killed her. Garanca is good but she’s acting too much.
Beatriz Uria Monzon x2
@@KENTIN4810 Don’t you mean Garanca is bad.
The best Carmen I've ever seen. She takes the role not only as a singer, she lives Carmen. She is an amazing actress too!
I just recover myself after what I consider a top ten actors play ever in Opera if not the first ever. Words are missing, you just feel it straight in all your being.
Once you've seen Carmen played like this demon actress, you just know the opera from a new angle and other may sing better (which is not easy she's an extremely good singer but her French is not very impressive) they'll never reach such a degree of intensity. Because you feel it in her voice too, so that's why even with a better voice you're not to make a better Carmen! I just... yes try to recover atoms of myself gone everywhere in the universe!
Absolutely!!!!!!
Elīna ideāla Karmena,neko tik talantīgu,spožu šai lomai nevaruiedomāties
Wonderful ! I have never seen a singer so completely "possessed" by spirit of Carmen. That´s how she should be if real. With all respect to other singers, but SHE IS Carmen.
Idk... Carmen is not that sensual in the original book. We don't feel enough the essential thing : her freedom. But I suppose that's the Carmen of the opera.
Erotic so well played. She is a GREAT ACTRESS!
asif Bizet wrote the whole Opera Carmen FOR HER. I can't believe what I just saw.
@@Raskolnifete I'm damn late. She's not nessecarily described as sensual but she should be "free" and her whole thing is to play with love. She's very playful and captivating.
@@job8285 of course. She's free in an absolute way, about everything, not just in love, that was my point. in this video this aspect is quite restricted but it's okay! (the scene goes like that I mean) I just thought it was more interesting in the book since she's less in her seduction role and she appears more free about every aspect of life (in the book she frequently seems like an unbearable child)
Holy Shit! That was the most overtly erotic portrayal of Carmen I've ever seen. Incredibly great voice with superlative acting! Brava!
Absolutely! She's really a revelation as Carmen!!! And I think the impact is also intensified by the reactions of tenor Roberto Alagna as Don Jose.
Amen
Japan escape ;)
@@ikey14 So many Don Jose's are too unattractive to be convincing.
Can we talk about Elina's incredible core strength during the embrace at the end? It looks like she's falling into his arms, but he's not really supporting her. She's essentially holding a boat pose while singing at the top of her range.
Omg didn't notice. This is incredible
Ya know, when he knocked the stuff off of the desk, I gasped. It just got so real there. Like, suddenly a very hot fun.
, wrong, human interaction. I liked it.
I gasped too and needed to pause and proccess the moment lol
No one in the world can ever top Elina’s Carmen. She IS Carmen.
Jose needs to listen. She just told him she threw out a lover yesterday. He should have realized she wasn't going to stay loyal to him.
How do they sing that close without blasting their voices in each other’s faces?
acting
Collegiate opera singer here. To some extent, there is going to be face-to-face singing, though we generally try to "cheat" our faces towards the audience both to maximize audibility to the audience and to minimize all the noise that's being directed at whoever's on stage with us (Singing in technique, opera singers can exceed 100 dB of sound - really, really loud).
Ironside Pitch Boi wow that’s not great for their own eardrums but is amazing in ours.
Becuase their voices are small and throaty, not actually proper operatic voices.
@@IronsidePitchBoi Yeah, exceeding 100DB is only possible with great technique, like Caruso, which these guys simply don’t have.
This performance gives me shivers all down my body. Fucking fantastic, and I'm not even a big opera fan.
When I watch this I get that tight choked up feeling in the back of my throat that you only get when you watch something you absolutely adore, they are both just perfect, with incredible voices and the acting is so intense. I get completely lost in this opera.
same feeling here, it's too powerful
Brought to tears every time. But, they are tears from being overwhelmed by how powerful and amazing the performances are.
I've seen many performances of this opera. But it has been until today that I met the REAL Carmen. Incredible!
Me too. But she is the best one.
What. a. chemistry. Oh my God. I'm dying.
Wow. Elina's portrayal of Carmen is so unbelievably powerful. She might be the one to get me into opera.
Can´t blame Don Jose I probably would have fallen too...
Lol
Same
It's like asif the genius Bizet wrote the whole Opera Carmen FOR HER. Phenomenal. She's the one.
They forget to mention the wonderful Roberto Alagna, too! Wow!
They work so well together.
Mary Freeman he isn’t that believably a simple soldier though. He just seems like a romantic prince. Which is why the Don Juan I saw live was better.
He’s a great acting singer / singing actor, and I find him quite believable here. They have great chemistry. (And, for Trivia fans, I believe he actually was in the military briefly as a young man....)
he’s okay.
Voice like a canon. And if you watch the full opera which is available here on TH-cam his acting performance is fantastic!
I watch this religiously
I just saw her whole interpretation, and she really is the best Carmen of all times.
Do you know where i can watch it?
There is a DVD of this performance available for purchase. In addition to wherever you might usually buy a DVD, it is sold by the Metropolitan Opera and can be ordered online
Many public libraries have copies, as it is not out of print and it is a very popular version of a very popular opera.
@@narellealana2954 If you've not seen it yet, go to the Metropolitan Opera website on December 4th (any time between 7:30PM EST and 6:30PM EST the following day), and it'll be their "Nightly opera stream". Here is the schedule: www.metopera.org/user-information/nightly-met-opera-streams/ But on December 4th don't click from schedule as they'll ask you to pay. Instead, go to their main page metopera.org and scroll down to the "Nightly opera stream". You need to start before 6:30PM EST on December 5th.
4:28 Damn they are really going for it lol
Magnifique opéra. Georges Bizet peut être fier de son chef-d'oeuvre. Qu'il repose en paix et merci pour ses superbes compositions.
Che interpretazione ... sanguigna. Comme il faut! Sono catturato. Bravo Alagna super
My favorite mezzo. And beautiful, too.
@Bálint F.D. Lol, not even close. She’s an undeveloped soprano.
She is an undeveloped soprano. This is a mezzo: th-cam.com/video/HoYBoqogflU/w-d-xo.html
One of the greatest things I've ever seen. Been comparing this to other Carmens and to me it's the acting, staging and directing that takes this over the top. Of course, the singing is amazing, but when Elina combines it with such convincing character acting it becomes overwhelmingly good. With her eyes she communicates the inner thoughts of Carmen the entire time and it's memorizing. And, of course, one can't help but fall in love with her cuz she's so DAMN GORGEOUS!
Elina! Bravo!
So amazing. Sometimes you need to step back and simply love humanity for something as perfect as this.
The best Carmen that will ever be! I love you Elina!
Elina have the power to bring Carmem to the real life. Love u Elina, u are amazing!!
That has to be the sexiest performance of Carmen ever. I've seen Marilyn Horne, who many said was THE Carmen of the seventies, sing the role; and I've seen Denyce Graves, who many said was THE Carmen of the nineties, sing the role. And I have to say that neither one of them can hold a candle to Elina Garanca. In this production, she becomes Carmen in a way that I wouldn't have thought possible.
Сколько лет пересматриваю видео Элины... Но каждый раз не могу оторваться. Сколько зрелости, обаяния и женской силы в её Кармен. Вот бы увидеть вживую, это чувство дороже бриллиантов.
А поёт как !
Holy shit this Carmen is so beautiful
Lots and lots of chemistry
My favourite Carmen "Song"🤗😁🤗😁💜💜💜J'aime la opera🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶💜💜💜💃💃💃💃💃
I can't understand if it's more pleasant to watch her act or hear her sing. Wonderful.
!!Elina Garanca.. y Roberto Alagna....De las mejores voces de los últimos años..¡¡
El problema es que, en mi opinión, Alagna no puede cantar Carmen. Alagna es un tenor lírico. Don José necesita de una voz más dramática. Del Mónaco, Corelli, Martinucci, Giacomini tienen voz para cantar don José. No Alagna. Ahora, para mi, no hay ningún tenor con voz adapta para don José
wow her voice is very strong but beautiful...
but?
@@wackneyhick7129 lmao exactly!?!? STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL , NO BUTS !
@@wackneyhick7129 I believe they are using it to express surprise. It seems they are saying, "but," to also express, "and," as well as express surprise. Maybe English is a second language and they would not know, "but," is a qualifier.
Elina Garanca did not just act as Carmen, she IS Carmen. ❤️
Bravissima la Garanca! Wonderful made this production
That guy is the luckiest man in whole world.
Spoiler alert: no he ain't.
Well, for now.
You should watch the last scene, it's here as well.
Près des remparts de Séville,
Chez mon ami, Lillas Pastia
J'irai danser la Séguedille
Et boire du Manzanilla.
J'irai chez mon ami Lillas Pastia.
Oui, mais toute seule on s'ennuie,
Et les vrais plaisirs sont à deux;
Donc, pour me tenir compagnie,
J'emmènerai mon amoureux!
Mon amoureux, il est au diable,
Je l'ai mis à la porte hier!
Mon pauvre coeur très consolable,
Mon coeur est libre comme l'air!
J'ai les galants à la douzaine,
Mais ils ne sont pas à mon gré.
Voici la fin de la semaine;
Qui veut m'aimer? Je l'aimerai!
Qui veut mon âme? Elle est à prendre.
Vous arrivez au bon moment!
Je n'ai guère le temps d'attendre,
Car avec mon nouvel amant,
Près des remparts de Séville,
Chez mon ami, Lillas Pastia!
Thank you much
Y
How can she sing in that stance???!!!!
I love how she spits on the cloth at 1:55 before cleaning her leg.
Can I just say that as well as having great chops, she is a REMARKABLE actress. She could be a legitimate actress if she wanted- that good.
Yes. Most of the moves are director's choice, but she is a great actress regardless with the facial expression and all. I saw her at the Met in this and also in La Cenerentola, you are right.
Постановку М.- опера и игру Э. Гаранчи следует признать выдающейся ! Каждая мелочь продумана , - получилось яркое незабываемое зрелище ! Браво постановщику ! Браво , Элина ! Браво , БИЗЕ !
adoroooooooooo essa segudilla, bravos, olé !
One of the most seductive melodies ever written and the stage with these superb performers lives up to it!
What a convincing portrayal of Carmen and such fantastic singing. Brava Elina!
I love the Seguidilla even more than Toreador and the Habanera, and I love this performance of it. The way this scene is played it's clear Carmen is going to eat Jose alive and spit him back up before she's through.
Her voice is superb. Great acting. Love when she trips him--a great piece of business. I love Alagna.
Good grief!! Elina wiped every other singer off the table with her performance. She is just amazing. Wonderful! Roberto aldo performed well but Elina took the honours.
This woman is incredibly good.
I love the song too...it's cool.
Damn...this will stand the test of TIME.
It has already stood the test of time given as it was composed almost a couple of centuries ago. BTW, the Metropolitan opera will stream this full performance starting at 7:30PM EST on December 4th and keep it there for 23 hours thereafter, part of their free "Nightly Opera Streams".
@@jewelmarkess Not that long-1875 I think.
@@wolfieears1984 You are right. Not "a couple of centuries ago", but 150 years ago. Still enough time to say it stood the test of time.
J'aime Elina Garanca et Roberto Alagna ensemble!
Elina's voice is the most beautiful, strong voice that I've ever heard among all voices and pop voices too.
La sublime ELina Garanca , oral, techniques , charisme ... Elle est tout simplement magnifique
Sublime Elīna Garanca. A beauty queen with an exceptional voice. Never has Carmen ever performed so well.
amazing! So sensual.
My favorite aria from “Carmen.” And Garanca is perfect.
Quelle belle voix !!!bel opéra histoire de *carmen***🤔😘🌈❤️
Am now the proud owner of this version of the Superb 🎼 Bizet Carmen 🎶 with the stunning & gorgeous Elina Garanca ❤️ money well spent today 23.03.22
For my this is the best song from the entire opera!
This is one of my favorite acts.
She reminds me so much of Vivien Leigh in Gone With the Wind, especially when she smiles at 00:40. Which is rather interesting when you compare both characters!
Phew! That was hot!
Carmen. The REAL one. The pleasure is immense, dear Elina.
I Love that last note she hits! ugh!
chills!
Magistrale interprétation : Élina est formidable dans ce rôle ! Bravo
Прекрасные, изумительные певцы! Спасибо большое за такое прекрасное искусство!
Elina is Carmen.
The best Carmen I ever seen.
Garanca is amazing.She is the best.
Perfect Opera perfect Artist.❤😍
This is the living proof sensuality is 1000 times more powerful than vulgarity.
Thing is, Carmen is as vulgar as she is s*xy. Garança takes the s*xy up to the freaking Stratosphere while doing next to zero vulgar. Still, who cares. 😍
my favorite carmen
Yep.. hooked to the most deep parts of my being. Her voice.. Even heaven cant compete.. 😮❤
Garanca is the best Carnen! Wonderfull !!!
The best Carmen I ever saw and heard…..she sing with so much passion...
Wow that was electric
I never get tired of watch this! Elina as Carmen is just fire and these two together are amazing!
She is perfect.
José had no chance resisting :D
Excellente chanteuse, musicienne et actrice. Un duo sublime !
Настоящие артисты! Вот это пение и игра - как в жизни, а не в театре.
Now THAT’s a Carmen

She's so seductive and enchanting. A woman like that could ruin a man, if he was lucky.
like the real deal... love
Just incredible! The way that they two acting is just amaizing, Elina simply the best!!
Garanca IS Carmen!
Me encanta Elina como cantante y como actriz, su Carmen es muy sensual y encantadora.
Eliana Garanca: La mejor Carmen

Excellent Elina et Roberto ensemble !!
He visto muchas Carmen y con grandes cantantes pero al menos esta escena es sencillamente la mejor pues Garanca no solo es bellísima sino nos obsequia una voz mezzo pura, firme, profunda, técnica envidiable, pronunciación perfecta y una actuación sencillamente fuera de serie...EXCELENTE.
I'm in love ! oh that is what she wants me to be .Wonderful
