Bizet, George and Oscar Hammerstein II
Carmen Jones Musical Score Collection.
New York: Williamson Music Inc. 1943. Collection of three musical scores from Bizet and Hammerstein's popular musical. Quarto three volumes original illustrated wrappers. The collection includes piano scores for Stan' Up An' Fight Dat's Love and My Joe. In very good to near fine condition. Carmen Jones is a 1943 Broadway musical with music by Georges Bizet orchestrated for Broadway by Robert Russell Bennett and lyrics and book by Oscar Hammerstein II which was performed at The Broadway Theatre. Conceptually it is Bizet's opera Carmen updated to a World War II-era African-American setting. Bizet's opera was in turn based on the 1846 novella by Prosper Mérimée. The Broadway musical was produced by Billy Rose using an all-black cast and directed by Hassard Short. Robert Shaw prepared the choral portions of the show.The original Broadway production starred Muriel Smith alternating with Muriel Rahn in the title role. The original Broadway cast members were nearly all new to the stage; Kennedy and Muir write that on the first day of rehearsal only one member had ever been on a stage before. The 1954 film was adapted by Hammerstein and Harry Kleiner. It was directed by Otto Preminger and starred Dorothy Dandridge and Harry Belafonte. In 1992 Carmen Jones was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally historically or aesthetically significant."

BIZET, Georges 1835-1875
Carmen Opéra Comique en 4 actes Tiré de la nouvelle de Prosper Mérimée Poème de H. Meilhac et L. Halévy . Partition Chant et Piano arrangée par l'Auteur . à Jules Pasdeloup. Piano-vocal score
Paris: Choudens Père & Fils PN A.C. 3082 1875. Large octavo. Quarter dark red morocco with marbled boards spine in gilt-ruled compartments titling gilt marbled endpapers. 1f. recto title within decorative border verso blank 1f. recto named cast list and index verso blank 351 i blank pp. <br /> <br /> Cast includes Lhérie as Don José Bouhy as Escamillo Potel as Dancaïre Barnolt as Remendado Dufriche as Zuniga Duvernoy as Moralès Nathan as Lillas Pastia Teste as a Guide Galli-Marié as Carmen Chapuy as Micaëla Ducasse as Frasquita and Chevalier as Mercédès with set designs by Charles Ponchard. <br /> <br /> A presentation copy with an autograph inscription signed by the composer to the French critic and writer Henri Blaze de Bury 1813-1888 to title: "A Monsieur Blaze de Bury Son bien reconnaissant et dévoué Georges Bizet" possibly following Blaze de Bury's favorable article about Carmen in the "Revue des Deux Mondes" after hearing the opera.<br /> <br /> With occasional performance markings in pencil.<br /> <br /> Binding worn and rubbed. Slightly browned; moderate foxing throughout more pronounced to first and last leaves; numerous tears some quite significant in 3 cases with the loss of several measures of music; old repairs to blank margins of many leaves occasionally obscuring printed area and several additional old repairs; a number of leaves partially detached; inscription slightly trimmed by the binder just touching two letters of the dedicatee's name but not Bizet's signature. First Edition first issue with the error in the index listing the Finale of Act II on p. 175 no note to p. 20 and a footnote to p. 49 pre-dating the publication of the full score published posthumously. Rare. Crawford p. 53. Fuld pp. 585-586. Hugh Macdonald: The Bizet Catalogue Online.<br /> <br /> Bizet's masterpiece composed in 1873-1874 to a libretto by H. Meilhac and L. Halévy after Mérimée was first performed in Paris at the Opéra-Comique on 3 March 1875 under the baton of Adolphe Deloffre 1817-1876. <br /> <br /> "Bizet might have surpassed all the many composers active in France in the last third of the 19th century had it not been for his untimely death at the age of 36. Carmen first performed three months before his death has become one of the most popular operas of any age. .<br /> <br /> Carmen was orchestrated at Bougival in the summer of 1874 and rehearsals began in September. Bizet arranged the piano score himself and played the piano for rehearsals. . It is recognized as one of the greatest of 19th-century operas and certainly the most popular. Its tunes are familiar to millions and its evocation of Spain where Bizet never set foot has done as much to propagate the elements of the style as Spanish music itself. . In Carmen the combination in abundance of striking melody deft harmony and perfectly judged orchestration ensures the opera's immortality. It magnificently transcends both the genre of opéra comique and the norms of 19th-century French music. . <br /> <br /> Carmen has remained one of the most frequently performed operas in the entire repertory. Many great singers have been associated with its leading roles. The orchestral suite drawn from the opera is often played and in 1954 it extended its currency in a film version Carmen Jones. For three-quarters of a century it was regularly played not as an opéra comique with dialogue as Bizet wrote it but with the Guiraud recitatives. It is now played almost everywhere in opéra comique format although the edition on which modern performances rely that of Fritz Oeser published in 1964 has aroused bitter controversy since it includes a quantity of music that Bizet himself rejected in his own edition of the vocal score published in 1875. That first edition published by Choudens is exceedingly rare for it was replaced at an early stage by the first of many corrupt editions from the same house." Hugh Macdonald in Grove Music Online.

Small annotation in black ink to upper outer corner of title. First Edition early issue with "Op. 24" added to title but still with the address 265 Rue St. Honoré. <br /> <br /> In one act to a libretto by Louis Gallet after Alfred de Musset's story Namouna Djamileh was first performed in Paris at the Opéra-Comique Salle Favart on 22 May 1872.<br /> <br /> "Bizet's score is full of inventive touches especially in its use of chromatic colour widely mistaken for Wagnerism in 1872. In the final duet the music takes on a more serious and passionate tone and Djamileh is characterized from the beginning by a darkly expressive melody. Her main solo the 'Ghazel' blends exotic colour chromatic side-slips suppressed passion and the key of D minor to give a strong foretaste of the Habanera in Carmen."
