25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi Schiller12! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at :Harvard University Department of Psychology ↗ that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections ↗ or reverting obvious vandalism ↗. Any edit that changes the ''meaning'' of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit ↗ for more information.

''Influences'' eliminated

As you apparently put a lot of effort on 5th September and later into editing the ''Influences'' item in the InfoBox for Albert Einstein ↗ I don't suppose you were delighted to see that on 3rd October (a mere four weeks later) your work was eliminated as part of an effort to remove ''Influences'' items from all articles about scientists. Not only that, but in a discussion at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Infobox_scientist the article on Einstein was given as an example of "abuse" of the ''Influences'' item.

What about of Bizet's Carmen (1973 Bernstein recording)?

The 1973 '''Leonard Bernstein recording of ''Carmen''''' is a complete studio recording of Georges Bizet's opera ''Carmen'', conducted by Leonard Bernstein and featuring the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and a principal cast led by Marilyn Horne as Carmen and James McCracken as Don José. The recording was made for Deutsche Grammophon and was notable for its use of the original spoken dialogue (''opéra comique'' style) rather than the sung recitatives that were common at the time.

Background and production

The recording followed the highly successful new production of ''Carmen'' that opened the Metropolitan Opera's 1972–73 season. Bernstein was passionate about the opera and championed the use of the authentic original score, which employed spoken dialogue between musical numbers and restored music that had often been omitted in traditional performances. This approach emphasized the work's classification as an ''opéra comique'' and highlighted its raw, naturalistic drama.

The recording sessions took place in September 1972 at the Manhattan Center in New York City. The production team aimed to use early quadraphonic (four-channel) recording technology to create an immersive, theatrical sound experience for home listeners. The recording featured the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, but the Manhattan Opera Chorus was used instead of the Met's own chorus due to union disputes.

Cast

The principal cast was largely the same as the critically acclaimed stage production at the Met:

'''Carmen:''' Marilyn Horne (Mezzo-soprano)

'''Don José:''' James McCracken (Tenor)

'''Escamillo:''' Tom Krause (Baritone)

'''Micaëla:''' Adriana Maliponte (Soprano)

'''Zuniga:''' Donald Gramm (Bass)

'''Moralès:''' Raymond Gibbs (Baritone)

'''Frasquita:''' Colette Boky (Soprano)

'''Mercédès:''' Marcia Baldwin (Mezzo-soprano)

Reception and awards

The recording was an immediate commercial success, selling over 100,000 copies upon release. It went on to win the '''Grammy Award for Best Opera Recording''' in 1973.

Critical reception was significant and debated, focusing on Bernstein's unique musical vision:

'''Bernstein's Tempo:''' The conductor's interpretation was noted for its deliberate, sometimes slow tempos, particularly the famous prelude. While some critics found this "lethargic," many others viewed it as a profound and "dramatically intense" approach that heightened the tragic atmosphere of the opera.

'''Use of Dialogue:''' The decision to use spoken dialogue was largely praised by enthusiasts of the authentic score, bringing the recording closer to Bizet's original intent.

'''Vocals:''' Marilyn Horne's portrayal of Carmen was widely lauded for its "magnificent" vocal power and characterization. James McCracken's Don José was praised for its intensity and dramatic commitment, though some reviewers felt his vocal style was not perfectly idiomatic for the French repertoire.

The recording is still considered a classic and a key part of both the ''Carmen'' discography and Leonard Bernstein's recorded legacy with Deutsche Grammophon.

Track Listing

The recording was extensive due to the inclusion of full dialogues and musical passages often cut in other versions. It was released as a 3-LP set and later transferred to a 3-CD set.
