BWW Review: This CARMEN's Ready for Her Close-up on Film in Atlanta
by Richard Sasanow - September 20, 2021
For one of the most popular operas in the traditional repertoire--ABC in the opera world means AIDA, BOHEME and CARMEN--the work by Bizet has had to have more lives than the proverbial cat to get there.

It is current proof that opera doesn’t have to stand still like a statue in an art museum to show that it is alive and well and, this time around, living in Texas.
