CarmenCo (Boat of Garten)

Boat of Garten Community Hall, 7.30 on Sunday 9 November 2025

Emily Andrews: Flute/Mezzo Soprano 
David Massey & Francisco Correa: Guitars 

The trio are all prizewinning Royal Academy of Music graduates and classical soloists in their own right. 

CarmenCo is more than a concert: It occupies the borders between a play and a concert.  It is a concert of Spanish and Spanish inspired music presented as a play, with costumes, props and a storyline which roughly follows the story of Bizet’s opera Carmen, but told from her point of view.  Dare you consult the cards with her?  What does she think of the men in her story?  Did she foresee her gruesome ending?  And does she like the opera Bizet wrote about her?  A fun-filled evening of fantasy, comedy, drama and tremendous music arranged from Bizet’s Carmen and Spanish and Spanish-inspired music by Boccherini, da Falla, Garcia -Lorca, Granados, Ravel and Albeniz, all arranged by the musicians for guitars and flute/voice.
