Opéra de Montréal presents a webcast of one of its most important recent productions, Bizet’s Carmen. Presented in 2019 at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier, this great classic of the repertoire is the result of a collaboration with Quebec filmmaker Charles Binamé, who directed it. This new version of Carmen, directed by Pierre and François Lamoureux, features the Orchestre Métropolitain, the Opéra de Montréal chorus and the Petits chanteurs du Mont-Royal. In an all-Canadian cast, mezzo-soprano Krista de Silva lends her voice to the famous gypsy, tenor Antoine Bélanger assumes the role of the brigadier Don José, baritone Christopher Dunham plays the bullfighter Escamillo, and soprano France Bellemare sings the role of Micaëla.
