Hardback

Description

Awarded at the 2022 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards.

The Merimee classic that Bizet brought to the opera is presented here in a new version, inspired by the choreography by Johan Inger for the Spanish National Dance Company.

Discover the story of Carmen through the pure and crystal-clear eyes of a child.I am nine years old.

I love playing with my ball and my friend who is a corporal in the Alcala Dragoon Regiment.

My neighbor Carmen is the most beautiful woman I know.

Everyone loves her, but she prefers to fly. My neighbor Carmen works in the cigar factory outside my hometown.

She is such a dazzling woman. When the siren sounds signal the end of the working day, the square gathers a huge crowd of admirers from all over.

However, Carmen is a free spirit, and she always repeats the same motto: "Love is a rebellious bird that none can tame, and it is quite in vain that one calls it.

If it suits it to refuse, nothing to be done, threat or plea. An endearing story that will bring the little ones closer to the world of opera and dance and will invite readers to reflect on the true nature of love. Premiado en los Moonbeam Children's Book Awards en 2012.

El clasico de Merimee que Bizet trajo a la opera se presenta aqui en una nueva version, inspirada en la coreografia de Johan Inger para la Compania Nacional de Danza.

Descubre la historia de Carmen a traves de la mirada pura y nitida de un nino.Tengo nueve anos, un balon del que no me separo jamas y un amigo que es cabo del Regimiento de Dragones de Alcala.

Mi vecina Carmen es la mujer mas guapa que conozco. Todos la quieren, pero ella prefiere volar. Mi vecina Carmen trabaja en la fabrica de cigarros de mi ciudad.

Es una mujer tan deslumbrante que, cuando suena la sirena indicando el fin de la jornada, la plaza se llena de admiradores.

Sin embargo, Carmen es un espiritu libre, y siempre repite: "El amor es un pajaro rebelde.

No se lo puede domar facilmente ni someter a ninguna ley.

Por mucho que lo llames, no ira a ningun sitio al que no quiera ir". Una historia que acercara a los lectores al mundo de la opera y la danza y nos invitara a reflexionar sobre la verdadera naturaleza del amor.
