This is a medley of four famous tunes from Georges Bizet's masterpiece opera Carmen: March of the Toreadors (theme 1), Habanera, Toreador Song, and March of the Toreadors (theme 2). This arrangement for unaccompanied viola is a bit challenging. It makes an exciting addition to any concert.
Note: the live audio and video are from the cello version; the viola version is identical, but up one octave.
