Is it possible to reduce large opera scores to scores for a small ensemble which even includes a guitar? If you let yourself in for it, you will be amply rewarded: beautiful melodies, magnificent interaction of harmonic and musico-dramatic elements of surprise, and a recognition value among the audience who loves to discover great known melodies like 'Carmen' by Georges Bizet in an entirely new musical environment. Thus, with the guitar in the role of the foundation which is given interesting, previously unknown tasks, this piece is a most welcome addition to the existing chamber music repertoire.
