Avec la garde montante

Avec la garde montante (segment's aria: "Avec la garde montante", from Bizet's opera Carmen, sung by Les Petits Chanteurs à la Croix de Bois with the Opéra National de Paris, conducted by Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos in 1970): "Oh, there's a lady who doesn't let much slip through her fingers if she decides she wants it. But, who will she choose next? Or will fate take her hand? Hey, Carmen, what do the cards hold for you today?" Carmen (live-acted) lays down her tarot cards which through CGI spring to life with the images the cards each depicting one of her choices from the opera: Don José, Escamillo, or Death. Directed by Pascal Roulin and Christophe Vallaux.
