Since the vibrant production of Carmen at the Metropolitan Opera in New York in 2010, interest has grown in the work's French composer, Georges Bizet. First published in 1991, Christoph Schwandt's biography of Georges Bizet is now widely recognized as the definitive work on the great composer. Drawing on recent research and revised and augmented for the 2011 edition, translated here into English by Cynthia Klohr, Schwandt cleans away the romantic misconceptions that have cluttered earlier assessments of Bizet's life and works.
