Carmen Suites / L'Arlésienne Suites

Album by Georges Bizet & Orquestra Simfònica de Barcelona i Nacional de Catalunya & Pablo González

Carmen Suites and the L'Arlésienne Suites are orchestral suites by French composer Georges Bizet, composed in 1875 and 1872 respectively. They use operatic and incidental material with Mediterranean-influenced melodies, dance rhythms and bright orchestral colour, and they appear near the end of Bizet's career as works that extend his stage writing into purely orchestral form.
