This major new Urtext edition of Bizet's classic opera is a reconstruction of Bizet's original intentions as indicated in the vocal score he himself prepared in 1864. With the original French text and an English translation by David Parry, and supported by complete orchestral material, this is both an authoritative and practical edition:

Unique sources
