Definitely I love the Carmen role, but this one don't represent Carmen for me, first at all she has not a Spanish face, she is probably from Latin America, secondly - and this is a very interesting subject to discuss - I don't conceive Carmen as a mature woman, I think was Mortier (Brussel's La Monnaie Opera House Director, now of Teatro Real in Madrid) that has represented a Carmen as a young woman "una gitanilla" (a young gipsy) with the "certain inocence" and caprices of a wonderful seductrice young woman. Carmen is an opera I like very much, Merim?e has created a great role and Bizet a great music, when I'm in Sevilla and I walk through "El barrio de Triana" the Bizet's music comes automatically to mine head.... Mopnsieur Escamillo thank you very much.... from Don Jos?
