Seduction and Obsession in Carmen

Presented by Desirée Mays

Considered scandalous at the time of its premiere, Bizet’s opera of the fiery gypsy and her ill-fated lover continues to fascinate. Join Desirée Mays as she explores Pushkin’s poem The Gypsies, which inspired numerous operatic adaptations, Prosper Mérimée’s novella Carmen, the basis for Bizet’s work, and select stage productions that have made this one of the most popular operas of all time.

Please note that student pricing is available to full-time students with valid identification.

This session will be held in the Opera Learning Center, located on the 6th Floor of the Samuel B. and David Rose Building at Lincoln Center, 65th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.
