A BALLET BY ANTONIO GADES & CARLOS SAURA. Inspired by the works of Mérimée and Bizet’s opera, Carmen marks the first collaboration between Antonio Gades and filmmaker Carlos Saura. To capture the very essence of Andalusian culture, the Spanish choreographer chose a striking contrast between Bizet’s extraordinary music and that of a live flamenco orchestra. More than 20 years after the death of the iconic choreographer of Spanish culture, the Gades Foundation sustains his legacy at the highest level and continues to perform around the world.
