Cahn Auditorium
Joachim Schamberger, director; Patrick Furrer, conductor; members of the Northwestern University Symphony Orchestra
Love, jealousy, and tragedy collide in Bizet’s classic opera as Don José turns his back on his childhood sweetheart and his military career to pursue the attentions of the fiery, free-spirited Carmen. When the popular, yet boastful toreador Escamillo arrives and sets his sights on Carmen, José finds he must compete for her affection. Performed in French with English supertitles.
