¡Bizet: Carmen
¡Opera

 Description
[Machine Translation] The production of "Carmen" at the Salzburg Festival in 1967, conducted and directed by Karajan, was an extravagant extravaganza that featured a lavish stage set and a cast that was ideal at the time, including Grace Bambury and John Vickers in the leading roles, and Mirella Fleni's Micaela, among many others. The performance was a resounding success. A film of the opera was also made based on this performance, which was also a huge hit (although the sound was recorded in Vienna). The "Gypsy Dance" from "The Beautiful Daughter of Perth" and "Farandole" from "L'Arles", which were inserted in the bar scene in the second act of the film, are also performed in this live performance. The archives of the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation have been carefully restored and remastered with the cooperation of the festival, and although in monaural, the sound is reproduced in a way that allows the audience to fully feel the enthusiasm of the time.
