Biography (read more)
Georges Bizet, born Alexandre Cesar Leopold Bizet, was born on 25 October 1838 and died on 3 June 1875. He was a French composer of the Romantic era who had a brilliant student career at the Conservatoire de Paris, winning the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1857. Despite his talents, most of his stage and orchestral works struggled to find success during his lifetime, and he earned much of his living arranging and transcribing music by others. His final opera, “Carmen”, premiered in 1875 shortly before his early death and went on to become one of the most popular and frequently performed operas in the world.
Bizet’s “Carmen” is now a cornerstone of the operatic repertoire, and instrumental excerpts such as the “Habanera” have been widely arranged for other instruments, including classical guitar, extending his influence well beyond the opera house.
