Carmen:Bizet

[dwil]

I've purchased Bizet's Carmen suites 1& 2 - instrumental. Is this the same and full music without the words for the opera Carmen?

The Carmen Suites are basically orchestral highlights from Bizet's Carmen as opposed to the complete score.

However, most of the famous arias are well represented in the music with the likes of the Toreador's Song, the Habanera, Seguidilla etc featuring prominently.

Thanks. That's exactly what I wanted to know.
