LOCATION:Deutsche Oper Berlin\, Berlin
SUMMARY:Carmen
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:«Free she was born\, free she will die»: To preserve her free
 dom\, Carmen even accepts her own death. With her uncompromising will to a
 utonomy\, she shattered the moral conventions of her time. This sets her a
 part from the many passive\, self-sacrificing female characters of 19th-ce
 ntury opera – once a scandalous figure\, later a figure of identificatio
 n\, always a large screen onto which audiences project their own feelings.
  Director Ole Anders Tandberg takes up these ambivalences and works with i
 conic images: the bright red flamenco dress\, the torero costume and the b
 ullring. But these symbols are not left uncommented upon\; instead\, they 
 are exaggerated to the point of the grotesque and the macabre. An emotiona
 l rollercoaster ride with catchy tunes like the Habanera and the Toreador 
 Song that will linger long in memory. Argentinian conductor Alejo Pérez\,
  General Music Director of Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires\, makes his debut
  at Deutsche Oper Berlin. Gaëlle Arquez brings charm and sophistication t
 o the French Carmen\, and later our new ensemble member Kristina Stanek in
 troduces herself as the new Berlin Carmen.
