Katharine Goeldner, Adam Diegel,Candace Evans, and John DeMain (see photo above) were also on hand for a lively discussion about interpreting this ever-popular and ever-present work. The presentation ended with a hilarious look at the music of Carmen in American popular culture. We even un-earthed John Corigliano's "Electric Rock Opera" version of the Bizet, called The Naked Carmen. Needless to say there's a reason you may not have heard of it.
Yesterday was also a great day for Madison Opera in the news:
- 77 Square asks "What's not to love about Carmen?"
- 77 Square also chats with director Candace Evans: "Carmen director returns to her roots"
