Georges Bizet, compositor y pianista, es celebrado como uno de los compositores de ópera franceses más importantes. Su obra, aunque trágicamente breve, posee una brillantez e individualidad que enriquecieron profundamente un período vibrante de la música francesa. A pesar de la controversia inicial y una recepción tibia, su ópera más famosa se ha convertido en universalmente querida y es representada en todo el mundo. Bizet fue un pensador racionalista que encontró en los autores paganos una inspiración artística mayor que en la rigidez e intolerancia que percibía en la literatura cristiana contemporánea.






The book delves into the orchestral suites arranged by Ernest Guiraud from Georges Bizet's opera Carmen after the composer's death. Compiled between 1880 and 1882, the first suite features five selected pieces, including the Prélude and Final (Les Toreadors), with orchestration closely mirroring Bizet's original work. Guiraud's efforts not only preserve Bizet's legacy but also enhance the accessibility of his music for concert performances, showcasing the enduring impact of Carmen in the classical repertoire.
Valued by scholars and academicians, this book holds significant literary importance and contributes to the knowledge base for future generations. It has been reproduced in its original print format, preserving any marks or annotations to maintain its authentic character.
