Flower Trivia – the answer
August 13th, 2008
On Tuesday, I asked: What is the famous aria that Don Jose sings to Carmen in the second act of George Bizet’s “Carmen?” What happened in the first act that set up the scene?
Answer: The aria is “La Fleur que tu m’avais jetee’ (the flower that you threw at me). Don Jose tells Carmen that the only thing that kept him alive in prison was the cassia flower she had thrown at his feet when he was arrested for fighting with his co-worker.
