Carmen (Georges Bizet)

On Tuesday I went to the opera with my colleagues and over 200 students. It was a compulsory school trip which worried me a bit. Forcing 19 year olds to go to the opera could have devastating effects on future art appreciation, couldn't it? I needn't have worried. The girls loved it, and they understood more than I did (it was sung in French) as there were Japanese subtitles in LED lighting at the side of the stage. I've never seen that before!
