Carmen, one of the most widely performed productions in the world since 1875. Carmen tells the tale of a cigarette factory worker’s passion, true love and jealousy and is set in Seville, Spain in around 1830. International powerhouses including Canadian mezzo-soprano Carolyn Sproule, winner of George London Prize 2019, as well as Gosha Kowalinska, champion in Spazio Musica 2010 in Orvieto are set to play the title role, whose aria “Habanera” the world remembers this classical production for. Performing alongside the international cast is Hong Kong soprano Louise Kwong, who will star as Micaëla, the corporal Don José’s childhood sweetheart from the village. Betrothed to Don José, she is deserted by him when he falls in love with Carmen, whom he is supposed to arrest for a factory dispute. The role of Micaëla is of a chaste, soft yet determined maiden who demands nothing less in singing skills than the title role.
