The thing that is so great about Elina Garanca's Carmen was that she knew how to bring the seductive energy to the character with her voice and acting to the point where it feels real. Carmen is a character who's not only seductive, but she's her own boss and Elina nailed it! This is Tony-winning acting!

Like Shakespeare, it's not enough to just say the words, you have to properly PERFORM it. The Queen of the Night aria from Mozart's the Magic flute is a magnificent feat of vocal gymnastics when merely sung, but PERFORMED, this is a mother making a demand of her daughter with the musical equivalent of "I brought you into this world, and I CAN TAKE YOU OUT OF IT". [For prime example look for the KZbin video of it performed by Diana Damrau, The Royal Opera] Carmen is an utterly amoral temptress, wanton and seductive, and she needs to be performed that way. Elina Garanca NAILED IT.

I think the role of Carmen has to bring a sense of Alure and Seduction, a hint of mischief and danger, with the exception of grace.

Good support and breath technique is the answer. You only need to stand and plant yourself if you're a beginner. Lots of singers with good support and breath techniques can sing laying down, it happens a lot in rock singing especially. An example would be Maynard James Keenan from Tool and his weird posture in Sober live, and when he once sang a song while wrestling a drunk audience member who invaded the stage.

L'amour est un oiseau rebelle Que nul ne peut apprivoiser Et c'est bien en vain qu'on l'appelle S'il lui convient de refuser Rien n'y fait, menaces ou prières L'un parle bien, l'autre se tait: Et c'est l'autre que je préfère Il n'a rien dit mais il me plaît L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour est enfant de Bohême Il n'a jamais, jamais connu de loi Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi! Si tu ne m'aimes pas Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime! Mais, si je t'aime Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi! Si tu ne m'aimes pas Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime! Mais, si je t'aime Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi! L'oiseau que tu croyais surprendre Battit de l'aile et s'envola L'amour est loin, tu peux l'attendre Tu ne l'attends plus, il est là! Tout autour de toi, vite, vite Il vient, s'en va, puis il revient Tu crois le tenir, il t'évite Tu crois l'éviter, il te tient L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour est enfant de Bohême Il n'a jamais, jamais connu de loi Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime Si je t'aime, prends garde à toi! Si tu ne m'aimes pas Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime!

I've seen Carmen live a couple of times, and also watched more renditions than I can remember. However, Elina's portrayal of the lead better captures the sultry, mischievous and positively devilish flirting character of Carmen better than any soprano I have seen. It's all in those eyes which are simply mesmerising.

CptSeagullEight - a lighter voice will not be able to get through the card scene in this opera. Think Julia Migenes-Johnson. She was a fantastic Carmen in the 1980s movie, but she herself said that she couldn't sing this role on stage. (edited to add) Besides - Carmen isn't an ingenue or young lady. She is a vulgar gypsy who works in a cigar or cigarette factory and occasionally helps smugglers by seducing body guards. Lighter voices are better suited for ingenues like Zerlina.
@jewelmarkess6 жыл бұрын
CptSeagull Eight Antonacci has an interesting voice. She actually started as a mezzo soprano and then switched to soprano roles apparently, so she clearly has strong low notes, IMHO. Now, Sarah Brightman would be a joke, she'd not even be heard in soubrette roles which is why I named Migenes-Johnson who has a light soprano voice and mostly performed in musicals, but who nevertheless was able to sing Lulu at the Met to much acclaim. Migenes-Johnson was a nice Carmen in the movie, not sure if you've seen it.
@jewelmarkess6 жыл бұрын
CptSeagull Eight - I was curious about Antonacci, so I read about her. I am not a singer even though I had voice lessons for personal enjoyment when I was already out of college and working. I had a light soprano, but it is way too light for opera. At any rate, I could never sing in public, totally losing it in front of people, maybe only in front of friends in my living room. I don't know much about metal though. Brightman voice is very small, nice timbre but so thin, and yes, she cannot do lower notes.

She is a dynamic, forceful talent of very high intelligence and naughty humor. A tremendous musician too. Very different from the very great Cecilia Bartoli in tone and style but are we not fortunate to walk this scorched earth with two such enormously gifted, hard-working musical singers/actors as these two ladies....keeping in mind how very easy it is to criticize and find fault even with the Angels.
