Carmen: Wiener Staatsoper

After more than 40 years, the Vienna State Opera is bringing a new production of Carmen - in Calixto Bieito's brilliant and gripping staging - to the stage. Since the originally planned performances could not take place in front of an audience - we provide a recording of an extraordinary introductory matinee.
