Detailed Description
SKU: A0.1562145
Composed by Georges Bizet (1838 - 1875). Arranged by BRIAN W. COPPING. This edition: pdf, streaming. 19th Century, Contest, Festival, Opera, Romantic Period. 11 pages. EMK Music #1134181. Published by EMK Music (A0.1562145).There is an optional Contrabass part so it can be performed by a String Orchestra. There is also a Third Violin part which is an alternative to Viola.
Habanera from Bizet’s Comic Opera Carmen literally means ‘music or dance of Havana’. In the Opera, it is an aria that signifies (from the French) that ‘love is a rebellious bird’. Bizet acknowledged that he had adapted the tune from an earlier composition by the Spaniard Sebastian Iradier. The effective use of triplets, chromaticism and ritornelli contribute to a haunting and timeless rhythmic gem.
