The Lyric's production of Bizet's Carmen on Friday night was FABULOUS. I had heard all the music before, played most of it, and ushered a performance of it back in college, but had yet to see the Lyric Opera perform it. Wow. This opera has some of the best music, and the Lyric makes it even better. I loved the set design and costumes, too, and can't wait for the day when I can afford a box seat (hopefully!) and no longer have to sit all the way at the back/top of the theater! I poked around You Tube for a while and found this video of Dmitri Hvorostovsky performing the Toreador Song. Enjoy!
