 Carmen Story Origins
Carmen was brought to the U.S. in 1878 as presented by Colonel James Mapleson's troupe at the New York Academy of Music.
Most press notices were hostile and many indignant, even hysterically attacking the music or the libretto.
They reformed the story to make it work as opera and to suit the taste of the day by removing the crudely realistic features.

 Carmen Sandiego - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rumors, spread through AOL chatrooms (circa 1994,) state that Carmen went "commando" under her trenchcoat, though, in the deluxe version of the Where in the World?
To inspire kids to learn geography, the creators wanted a female "heroine" whose name sounded exotic but was unmistakably simple to pronounce.
The third show was an animated series titled Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego?

 Amazon.com: Bizet: Carmen / de Los Angeles, Gedda, Micheau, E. Blanc; Beecham: Music: Georges Bizet,Sir Thomas ...
Carmen's Habanera and Seguidilla from act I are not arias but songs, and the distinction is not just a matter of the dance rhythms.
If anyone were to try to make a stage play out of Bizet's Carmen, not only would Carmen's solos still have to be given as songs, much of the music comprising the entire work would probably still have to be there as songs, dances and instrumental interludes for the band.
I heard this first when I was a teenager and found de los Angeles to be more like a noble princess than a sexy woman but she grows on you, each time you listen to her.

 Past Productions: Carmen
From the vivacious Toreador Song to perhaps the most famous aria of all, "The Habanera," the rapturously melodic music of Carmen is more than unparalleled; it's unforgettable.
Serrand views the piece as one that demonstrates the struggle of morality vs. human desire and distills the essence of Bizet's grand pageant to create a potent and volatile chamber opera between the four principals, accompanied by dueling grand pianos.
A sold-out hit in Minneapolis and winner of Outstanding Musical of 2003 by the Star Tribune, the production is now being restaged with A.R.T. actors, singers and dancers joining the Jeune Lune company, with a new set design for the Loeb Stage.

Carmen is about to leave too when José appears from the shadows.
For his Carmen Suite, Shchedrin re-scored Bizet's music for strings and percussion and inserted the farandole from L'Arlésienne and the Danse Bohemieme from La Jolie Fille de Perth.
Shchedrin writes, " Bizet's score is one of the most perfect in the whole history of music, and so I felt that it was very important, while working on the piece, to bring out the differences between my transcription and the original by means of tone colors.

 Jazz: McRae
Carmen McRae always had a nice voice (if not on the impossible level of an Ella Fitzgerald or Sarah Vaughan) but it was her behind-the-beat phrasing and ironic interpretations of lyrics that made her most memorable.
Among her most interesting recording projects were participating in Dave Brubeck's the Real Ambassadors with Louis Armstrong, cutting an album of live duets with Betty Carter, being accompanied by Dave Brubeck and George Shearing, and closing her career with brilliant tributes to Thelonious Monk and Sarah Vaughan.
She studied piano early on and had her first important job singing with Benny Carter's big band (1944) but it would be another decade before her career really had much momentum.

Carmen Possum is also a musical piece by Normand Lockwood.
Thus, while carmen possum sounds like valid Latin, it only makes sense when translated as "The Opossum's Song".
The poem takes off from a play of words in the title: possum means "I can" in Latin, and "opossum" in colloquial English.

 OperaResource - georges bizet and carmen
According to a survey, the Toreador's Song is the most widely known piece from ANY work of music theatre (followed closely by the Triumphal March from 'Aida').
The spoken dialogues were later set to music by Bizet's friend Ernest Guiraud who also added some ballet music to Act IV, drawn from other Bizet compositions.
Carmen: opera in four acts, libretto by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, after the novella by Prosper Mérimée, music by Georges Bizet (1838-1875), first performed 3rd March 1875 at the Paris Opéra Comique with the following cast:

 AfterEllen.com - Carmen Redefines Family on The L Word
Later episodes refer to her Latina heritage more indirectly: In Episode Six the wardrobe department gives her a T-shirt that reads "Everyone loves a Latin girl" while the sound department doctors the show’s theme song with Spanish lyrics and congas for one of her scenes.
Carmen’s heritage is also mentioned on the official L Word website, which proffers the character’s decidedly Latino last name--de la Pica--and, lest there be any confusion, refers to her as a "Latina beauty." No other character’s ethnicity is referenced in their bio.
We can only hope that if the show’s creators finally write in an Asian American character (currently a conspicuous absence considering the L.A. setting), they will have the sense to go about it thoughtfully rather than spicing up the theme song with a gong.

One word in Act II sets the entire tone: René Pape, a preposterously slim and glamorous figure, is singing the Toreador Song, complete with leap to the stage from a tabletop between phrases without missing a beat, and he concludes with “L’amour”.
Pape’s suave and daring Escamillo, especially when on alternate nights he is singing his fussbudget Rocco in Fidelio, has made him the new matinee idol of opera in New York, just as his King Marke in Tristan last year and his King Heinrich in Lohengrin the year before made all the Wagnerians swoon.
