About This Song
About "Carmen Suite No. 1 : Bizet: Carmen Suite No. 1: 5. Les toréadors" by Orchestre De Paris
Bizet's toréadors strut into the arena with brass blaring and cymbals crashing, a parade of swaggering machismo. The Orchestre de Paris plays it with a wink—the bullfighter's bravado undercut by a whiff of absurdity, thrilling and slightly ridiculous.
