					| Description | 
  					Carmen has a fatal hold over Don Jose who will do anything for her. But she will not be possessed. After Carmen takes up with the toreador Escamillo, Don Jose's final fatal confrontation with this untameable free spirit is one of those memories that defines great opera. |
