Jose Carreras & Doris Soffel - Carmen - Final Duet - 1984

[@bethfiori4708]

Jose Carreras will always bring me back to this. His voice is both touching and magnificent, and he is just swoon-worthy.

[@bethfiori4708]

Watch Carreras' reactions. What a good actor, and, of course, an exquisite tenor.

This is the first time I’ve seen this performance. Bravi! Both were superb, but that Jose - exceptional! Thank you for posting!

Excelente escena final de Carmen. Gran interpretación de JOSE Carreras & Doris Soffel..

[@bethfiori4708]

Jose Carreras is magnificent. I never tire of listening to him in this role, no matter who his Carmen is.

José Carreras è Don José e... il più grande tenore del suo tempo! Chi dice che la sua voce fosse piccola, senta questo live. Io l'ho sentito dal vivo, in teatro: la voce era tutt'altro che piccola, si espandeva e risuonava più di quanto la sua dolcezza facesse supporre! 💚

Glory of Barcelona and ARTS: for me Jose Carreras was a splendid performer, a natural beatiful voice, a deep heart when singing without a correct tecnique. Anyway one of the best singers of 20th century.

OMG! Carreras is sooooo great!

[@alexxseeman]

@baja6211 VAI put out a DVD titled "Operafest: A Gala Concert at the Zurich Opera" but it may no longer be in circulation. Sorry about that -- I will remove the reference from the description.

Skonio reikalas!

[@jimpark0909]

vravi!!!!!!

[@mezzoly]

Although now that I think about it, the opera being in French, it should say "Vive Escamillo," eh? ;)

[@irenavisockiene3735]

Filmo scena geriausia su Domingu!

[@katef6154]

Domingo says that Carreras was born to play Don Jose

[@baja6211]

[@nene1082]

Идиотская постановка! избил от большой любви до убийства.Плохой дуэт.

[@ramoncifuentes4664]

Doris Soffel is not good.

[@YouTubesucksdick]

Ok. Do u wanna do it then ass-wipe

[@CarldeFigueiredo-lf2gc]

No, she's not good; she's magnificent!

[@clefnoteproductions6695]

It's not that she's a bad Carmen. Just because someone's a mezzo doesn't mean they should automatically sing Carmen. Ms. Soffel was lyric mezzo who sang higher lying roles like Octavian, Giovanna Seymour, Rosina etc. Not the earthy we are used to hearing in this role. That being said, Mr. Carreras was a lyric tenor who sang with much passion, but roles like this and Cavaradossi/Calaf taxed his beautiful lyric instrument
