The Habanera is the aria Carmen sings when she first appears on stage. It is also known as 'L'amour est un oiseau rebelle'.
Carmen was based on a popular novella of the same name by Prosper Mérimée, which enticed French readers with exotic tales of Spain. Its heady combination of passion, sensuality and violence initially proved too much for the stage and Georges Bizet's opera was a critical failure on its premiere in 1875. Bizet died shortly after, never learning of the spectacular success Carmen would achieve -- it has been staged over 500 times at Covent Garden alone.
Carmen contains many well-loved numbers, such as Carmen's seductive Habanera and Escamillo's rousing Toreador's song, in which he celebrates the thrill of the bullfight. Richly coloured designs capture the sultry heat of the Spanish sun, while ranks of soldiers, crowds of peasants, gypsies and bullfighters bring 19th-century Seville alive. This combination of memorable music, vivid setting and dramatic story have made Carmen one of the most popular operas in the world. - Розваги

they all look like a part of some interactive Renaissance painting
N337av G#o5h you mean Renaissance?
@@honeybee1256 shoot I wrote that so long ago, and so late one night, that I had Renaissance pop up in my mind but "medieval art" pop up in my text. Thank you for replying to this comment and bringing my memories back of when I used to watch shit on UA-cam late at night. And thank you for correcting me :P
So true m8 technology has come far
Right????
good analogy!
To answer all the corset stuff, corsets actually help the singer cuz it forces you to have correct posture and therefore is easier to sing in. Hope that helps :)
They help with posture, and also are useful to press the diaphragm, but they also restrict breathing. Everyone who has worn a corset knows how hard is to breath with that thing on.
Sorry for my spelling mistakes, English is not my mother tongue.
Key Delgado that’s right, but other than that corsets actually help the singer.
@@keyd4211 Your English grammar and spelling are actually very good. Very well done! 👍
Let me help you out with a couple of things..
The word your looking for is 'Diaphragm' (tough one to spell correctly even for fluent English speakers) but we know what you meant.👌🏽
Also, when you referred to the corset as "breath taking" you were very close and elaborated on it with your next sentence which was also nicely done. But I believe you meant to say "restricts breathing"👍🏼
One more thing, you don't need to use the word "is" after the word "It's" as the word "It's" combines the words "It & is" to create "It's"👍🏼
English is my mother tongue and I had no problem whatsoever understanding you so you did very well!👌🏽👍🏼
Out of curiousity, what is your mother tongue? (I'm going to guess a Mediterranean language, perhaps Portuguese/Spanish/Italian etc?)
@@danemanton86 I'm a native american, my mother tongue is Spanish-Mapudungun. Mapudungun is the tongue of my people.
@@keyd4211 it restricts breathing only if you don't wear it in the right way.
As a French, I can only but to praise her French. She's singing it perfectly and everything is understandable!!
yah because fuck her singing
Can I ask, I'm trying to go for opera, but I'm absolutely terrible when it comes to vowel management. Do her 'rr' sound better?
@@cuteboi-qg9gi her R sounds good for singing, but not exactly French. It sounds like French like an accent which works in context.
In spoken French, the R is not rolled, and quite similar to the German R but a bit harsher.
@@cuteboi-qg9gi
Fellow franchie here!
The r needs to sound as if your trying to clear an itch in your throat so it comes from the very back of your mouth at the entrance of your oesophagus is the best way I can describe it!
Good luck on your opera journey I’m sure you’ll master it
@@Echalolotte Thank you! 🥹🥰
Imagine if time travel was a thing.
Can't imagine how proud people from the old days would be to know that operas like these still exists.
I would give anything to go back in time to watch a performance when it was first composed.
fun fact, when carmen came out people hated it, they threw everything they could at singers and orchestra because for them it was unacceptable to see character like carmen on scene since every opera before carmen was idealisad version of life and this one wasn't. bizet was shocked with his unsuccessful premiere because he thought that what he made was a masterpiece. so, he changed the whole orchestra and all the singers for the second play, but unfortunately it wasn't any better. he tried that another time and after the third failure he had a heart attack on the way home probably because of the shock and disappointment. so i think that people from the old days wouldn't appreciate carmen's existence in 21st century that much. at least that's what they taught us in school
@@ksenijakrstic698 A lot of great artists sadly weren't appreciated in their time
Mozart knows that his operas still live
@@ksenijakrstic698 Thats nonsense. There was no idealized version of life in opera or the stage. Look at Rigoletto. El Duke is a jerk, Rigoletto sort of deserves what he gets...

Hahahahaha Funny

Tolis Tsipos ffs shut up
@@tolistsipos7210 do you mind getting over yourself?
Ah yes, an opera about Spain, written in French. Makes perfect sense. Still, love is a rebellious bird. Beautiful.
Well, we have operas in Italian about Japan, ancient Egypt, operas in French about India, etc.

Hum, why shouldn’t French authors write about Spain ?
It’s the same concept as a translated book, the language doesn’t matter.
@@aspic5881 because in that time they think in Spain like a exotic place. They have many bad topics abaut Spain because the war of independence, the first place where Napoleon was defeated was Spain, the resistance of the civilian population men and women shocked them
😮 I think she really nailed the portrayal of Carmen. Every move and eye contact exhibits a sense of free, wild, untamable spirit. Such a captivating performance 👍
Who's carmen ?
@@user-ye3vl7ok4f Carmen is the protagonist of this theatrical play. She's a gypsy girl who works in a tobacco factory in Spain. A woman of irresistible charm and rebellion like no one else.
I had no idea what she was singing about, but now that I know she does play the part amazingly. She is in sync with her words. It is also said her accent is impeccable.
Nice rack as well
My favourite Operatic song and this lady is sublime
You Mean Opera Song
@@MyHeroAcademiafan248you mean “hello I am a pedantic t***”
I think it’s the first time I understand EVERY SINGLE WORD. Her diction is incredible and all of that while playing her role magnificently, WOW.
哈哈哈哈i love jennie too
The worst is that she’s romanian and sings in perfect French without being French like dude chill out we understood you’re talented x)
Yes! Her diction is incredible.
@@steflupr7766 Actually, she is Italian, which probably helped with the diction. And I agree with you, her diction is very clear as if she pronounced each word carefully.
@@steflupr7766 Romanian is a romance language. France is very widespread there.
What an extraordinary interpretation. You can tell she actually understands the words she's singing.
I speak french. And I swear if I didnt know who she was I would have thought she spoke french fluently
Sam Velasco what do you mean?
@@lz2141 That she's really GOOD at speaking French
Most singers do.
She's fluent, you can find her doing an interview on Carmen in French. How's that: an Italian actress speaking French in an English theatre as she plays a Gypsy in Spain!
Anna Caterina Antonacci best soprano after Maria callas. she has a charming voice and beauty 😍
Türk buldum :D
She was on the show getting gabagool? Lol
No other rendition of Habanera will have me as spell-bound as this performance. And now I love it even more now that G-Idle has sampled this!!
omgg I didn't know until (G)i-dle's performance in mma that they sampled a classical and I've been looking for this T^T omgg this is so great
I just found out gurlllll
Wow what a way to find out
what song
@@O_o-simp the song that used Habanera as a sample is Nxde by G-(I)DLE
This classic aesthetic made the Carmen experience much much much more "real" and immersive than this year's (2019) minimalist, weird, cold, dehumanised, staircase version.
Te alabamos :v
Now kids, BaCk In My DaY
Smhuck off Jesus
Yes. I suspect most of us theater-goers prefer classic aesthetic to many today's productions by directors who seemed to have declared war on visual beauty and operas set in time/place the composer intended. The directors don't care though, they have their half-baked "concepts" to show. I guess the crazier they are the more attention they'll get from the press.
HazyDay - a new piece of art would be a new opera written in styles you mention. I have no problems with that. But what you are talking about is plagiarizing old art and using it for purposes of directors who aren't talented enough to actually create something new. Operas have music and they have words. Words have meaning, and some of us actually understand them. In many cases, these words mention specific time frame. Bizet's Carmen is by Bizet with libretto of Halevy and Meilhac based on a novel by Merimee. What these directors do is throwing the work of librettists and authors out of the window, then writing their own plot which often renders the original words meaningless. Incidentally, I like the Met Carmen in spite of updating even if I consider the updating unnecessary. In most cases, however, the directors just ruin the original work.
I don't even really like operas, but my god her voice is beautiful.
That's how you start liking operas.
That's how I got into operas
not only her voice ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Blogaman Endomo 😂
BJMcB92 she has bigger b00bs ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
how lucky are we to be able to appreciate such beautiful music?? when this was released, most people would probably only hear it once (maybe twice) in their life!
Sadly i think this had bad reviews before, but gladly it deserves the recognition and attention it's getting now, but i still don't understand how people from the past didn't appreciate this beauty.
Her voice rising and falling in harmony with the fire in her wildly glowing eyes..
If Carmen actually looks like this, no wonder men were ready to die for her.
Yeah, this is the only Carmen that made me go "ok, I get it now".
she's 55 and still slayin lmao

she's over 40 btw
Bravo to her
Yeah man look at those calves 🦵
Last night I saw Carmen, it was my first time watching an opera...what a magical experience. I only knew the most known parts of the music, but seeing it live was of course a complete different level. What a fantastic play!!!
I have seen other beautiful singers as Carmen, but Anna Caterina makes them appear too ladylike! She absolutely OWNS this role.
Her vocals are higher than my college grades 😭
Nope! Not the vocals, it's the corset that equal my grades....DD

How the fuck can you sing in a corset.
You find ways

you just answered your own question.

It wasn't _nearly_ as tight as it could be.
+kirikakirikakirika well, it depends on the mass of the person wearing it. If she'd weigh 300 pounds her colon would be near her tonsils.

was here tens of times but again because of GIDLE
I discovered this in 2020, and I think I watched this for 2 weeks straight. now I'm going to be obsessed with it again
I-is that a corset!? *She's singing with a corset on!?*
I think is a costume to resemble a corset. Or maybe one of the more traditional ones that doesn't sufocate because it's not that tight
•cl0ud 9• Oh christ, the one video I thought I’d never suspect another fucking Gacha UA-camr and here you are.
Don't worry, she would sing that bad without the corset.
@@maricz4 a traditional corset doesn't suffocate, it just supports. And especially opera corsets do have a bit more of a stretch to them since the garment need to fit while their lungs are completely expanded
@@sarahsstitch2491 i just said that
Damn, that corset though.

Sarah Hamilfan it's boned, probably with metal. i don't know much about victorian/modern construction
And she’s singing in it, oml, that must hurt with all those deep breathes
@@TA-ls5nr She's singing an opera, has minimal time for breathing between her verses, and she's wearing a corset. Mind you she probably wore that for nearly the entire opera. Of course its painful!

Jedna z najwspanialszych OPER,Muzyka poważna wznosi na wyżyny i porusza każdy zakamarek serca i duszy.Kocham od zawsze.
Omg, she’s amazing, her voice is very beautiful.❤
She is really theatrical and seems to focus alot on the portrayal of her character... I appreciate that very much coming from a theatre background myself! Doing so she doesn't sound as belcanto as many other opera prima donnas but that rather seems to fit the bohemian character of this opera better actually and above all else it enables her to make the pronunciation and deliverance of the libretto paramount which she absolutely does to a tee! I am able to distinguish most of the words, which I usely have alot of trouble with in opera (and many other genres of music to, to be fair) and my French isn't even that good! On top of that the way she tells the story, both by means of her vocal expression and body language, really helps me to understand the story and what the opera tries to convey and that makes it so much easier to enjoy for me!
Also, even at the very beginning of the aria she made quite a dramatic impression on me and I was indeed somewhat abashed at her unawed, taunting and unapologeticly languorous appearance and aura as if I were an easily embarrassed young aristocratic gentleman of quickly disgruntled Victorian parents instead of an emancipated early twenty-something millenial (who has seen quite enough liberal sexual images and originals through modern media to not be shocked easily) raised by parents who themselves came of age during the height of the sexual revolution. It must've been something in her personality and portrayal itself that envoked the association of something dangerously rebellious in me...
long story short: I am impressed by her. Chapeau!
Charlye'Charleston 5
And I'm really impressed by this comment! You seem to be very intelligent!
Great insight.
The review of an artist's dreams.
Out of all clips on youtube, this has to be the perfect one. None can express the song rebelliously except this one. The acting and the style is exactly the feeling Bizet want to express in my claim.
exactly, all of the others seem so tame, while this one goes full-on and portrays it even as being raunchy, which is how it should be done. Props to them

Really, this French? I know a bit of French and thought this was Italian. Looks and sound so Italian to me.
1st lyric:" l'amour est un oiseau rebelle que nul ne peut apprivoiser" if you're an heir of the nobility in France that's how you speak french ^^' but it has nothing in common with italian ( except the latin origin of the words :p)
It always amazes me that voices like this actually exist! So beautiful!
Listen also to Elina Garanca in this. Also Rinat Shaham and Anita Raccelishvili. This is only among contemporary singers.. This requires both a glorious natural voice and years of training, and, yes, it is amazing.

Me as well, the intro just got stuck in my head. For the last half an hour, I was searching for what it was called so I could listen to it.
same here 😂
..some classical opera to balance your inner demons :P
Metal already does that very well. Some people find it hard to understand, and it is even harder to explain it to them. Negative music helps take negative energy away. An example would be that you are just PISSED at something, would you put on a very positive song then start having more positive energies yourself? Or would you just get a little more angry at the song? I personally would get more angry at the song, of course others will have different reactions.
*How to belt effortlessly in a corset 101*
Opera singers don't belt. Different technique. I know, you probably just meant singing, so just FYI.
@MEanME In a sense. They use their chest voice for lower notes and head voice for higher notes (pop singers mostly use their chest voice and use falsetto for very high notes, but falsetto creates a breathier sound, not suitable for classical singing), and they work on eliminating the break between registers, blending them which of course only works with right voices. Classical singing requires both the right voices and years of training. Additionally, while pop singers rely on microphones, opera/classical singers are trained to project the sound so that it is heard over the orchestra. They use a low larynx technique which allows them to use the open areas - cavities - in their head to create resonance enabling their voices to carry over the orchestra. This gives more information: vocalprocess.co.uk/what-is-belting/
@MEanME (to add to my previous comment re: corsets) - I read they don't put it on too tight. They also inhale when it's tightened so that they can breathe normally. Some singers actually prefer it as it gives them extra support.
@@jewelmarkess it's called SARCASM - but it flew over your head and smashed into a window

Honestly imo I think those genres are pretty comparable to opera in the sense of how it feels to listen to them, the music is very assertive and loud and the vocals are hard to do and it gives goosebumps and feels kind of like it fills your ears in a good way? Idk if that makes sense but yeah 🤷🏻♂️

Here because of (G)I-DLE ❤️
(( here are the lyrics both french and english))
L’amour est un oiseau rebelle
Que nul ne peut apprivoiser,
Et c’est bien in vain qu’on l’appelle
S’il lui convient de refuser.
Rien n’y fait, menace ou prière.
L’un parle bien, l’autre se tait.
Et c’est l’autre que je préfère.
Il n’a rien dit mais il me plait.
L’amour! L’amour! L’amour! L’amour!
L’amour est enfant de Bohême,
Il n’a jamais jamais connu de loi.
Si tou ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime.
Si je t’aime, prends garde à toi!
Si tou ne m’aimes pas, si tou ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime,
Mais si je t’aime, si je t’aime, prends garde à toi!
L’oiseau que tu croyais surprendere
Battit d’aile et s’envola.
L’amour est loin, tu peux l’attendre.
Tu ne l’attends pas, il est là.
Tout atour de toi, vite vite,
Il vient, s’en va, puis il revient.
Tu crois le tenir, il t’evite.
Tu crois l’eviter, il te tient.
L’amour! L’amour! L’amour! L’amour!
L’amour est enfant de Bohême,
Il n’a jamais jamais connu de loi.
Si tou ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime.
Si je t’aime, prends garde à toi!
Si tou ne m’aimes pas, si tou ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime,
Mais si je t’aime, si je t’aime, prends garde à toi!
English Translation of Habanera
Love is a rebellious bird
that nobody can tame,
and you call him quite in vain
if it suits him not to come.
Nothing helps, neither threat nor prayer.
One man talks well, the other's mum;
it's the other one that I prefer.
He's silent but I like his looks.
Love! Love! Love! Love!
Love is a gypsy's child,
it has never, ever, known a law;
love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you'd best beware! etc.
The bird you thought you had caught
beat its wings and flew away ...
love stays away, you wait and wait;
when least expected, there it is!
All around you, swift, so swift,
it comes, it goes, and then returns ...
you think you hold it fast, it flees
you think you're free, it holds you fast.
Love! Love! Love! Love!
Love is a gypsy's child,
it has never, ever, known a law;
love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you'd best beware!
Obrigado!
Wow!!! If you pause in any frame it you look like a painting! The lights, color tone, poses and expressions... Then you play it there is the music, voices, line of actions... sweet Lord, THIS IS PERFECT! I would love to see it in person!
Probably difficult to see exactly the same production now, but I am pretty sure there are clips here. There is also a DVD.
One of my most favorite Arias.
Before I was 10 I loved hearing it sung by two great artists, Maria Callas and Renata Tibaldi.
They were great but this lady, Anna Caterina Antonacci, has even more depth, incredible enunciation and at full power !
BELLISIMA !!
Lovely performance!
For those going on about how bad coursets are, no one here is tight lacing, and this style comes out in the front to allow for good diaphragm breathing which is essential for singing.

A french opera about a spanish girl played by an italian soprano in a british theater. That’s how music should be, a language that unites all mankind
Anna Cate redefined Carmen, acting the part, and vocally. Fluent in French, and a superb Mezzo, I think she had no problems with the vocal ranges. She just got into it and out it came! Fabulous!
This lives in my head everyday, rent free ❤️
I hum this to myself during night shifts for years now, so I feel you.
This lady lives in my head rent free, balcony ocean view and ten bedrooms
This was the first opera music i was exposed to its so beautiful 😍 ill never get tired of it
Truly a remarkable Carmen! It has everything,drama,raucous abandon and a complicated love affair with two fabulous stars at the top o their game!! MUST WATCH (Even if you don’t understand French!!!
I pity your wife if you think six bloody minutes is forever.

Wasn’t expecting a Freddie quote here
Freddie yes please
omg yessss i love you xoxo
LOL I LOVE THIS
Finally someone!
L'amour est un oiseau rebelle
Que nul ne peut apprivoiser
Et c'est bien en vain qu'on l'appelle
S'il lui convient de refuser
Rien n'y fait, menace ou prière
L'un parle bien, l'autre se tait
Et c'est l'autre que je préfère
Il n'a rien dit; mais il me plaît
L'amour! L'amour! L'amour! L'amour!
L'amour est enfant de Bohême
Il n'a jamais, jamais connu de loi
Si tu ne m'aime pas, je t'aime
Si je t'aime, prend garde à toi!
Si tu ne m'aime pas
Si tu ne m'aime pas, je t'aime!
Mais, si je t'aime
Si je t'aime, prend garde à toi!
L'oiseau que tu croyais surprendre
Battit de l'aile et s'envola
L'amour est loin, tu peux l'attendre
Tu ne l'attend plus, il est là!
Tout autour de toi vite, vite
Il vient, s'en va, puis il revient!
Tu crois le tenir, il t'évite
Tu crois l'éviter, il te tient!
L'amour, l'amour, l'amour, l'amour!
L'amour est enfant de Bohême
Il n'a jamais, jamais connu de loi
Si tu ne m'aime pas, je t'aime
Si je t'aime, prend garde à toi!
Si tu ne m'aime pas
Si tu ne m'aime pas, je t'aime!
Mais, si je t'aime
Si je t'aime, prend garde à toi!
Manifique.
❤❤❤
Belíssimo!
