Beautifully illustrated, annotated and arranged, this piano picture book includes a short biography of Georges Bizet, a short history of the work Carmen, a short synopsis of Acts 1 through 4, and moderate-level arrangements: Prelude; Yes, Love has brightly coloured wings (Habanera); Have you come from my mother?; I see my mother there; Outside the walls of Seville (Seguidilla); I'll drink your health, too; Into the fight, Toreador!; Nestling here close to my heart; Introduction to Act 3 and Introduction to Act 4. The artwork found throughout the book, depicting each arrangement, is intriguing and dramatic. Drawings by Brigitte Smith.
