Description
This well-known aria from Bizet’s Carmen is sung by a bullfighter describing various dangerous situations in the ring. Transfer all that energy and excitement to your playing when taking on this piece. The arrangement should be comfortable for advanced bands, providing a challenge to stretch intermediate players, particularly woodwinds. There are solo passages for trumpet and alto saxophone, as well as interjections for a variety of other instruments.
Enjoy!

Included in the purchase is the conductor's score and a full set of parts including supplementary parts (as specified on the cover page).
