Zusammenfassung:"This book was born out of a previous collaboration on Carmen between its two editors: their work on the Peters Edition of the opera. Styled as a 'Performance Urtext' this edition focussed on bringing to the printed page not only the musical text, but also many of the details of how Carmen was first performed. Both editors had thus gone through every bar of the opera with a fine-tooth comb: some sort of follow-up seemed inevitable. The idea of a book on 'Carmen abroad' was hatched, focussed - like the edition of its performance. From the outset we were encouraged by the enthusiastic reception of the idea by Cambridge University Press and we began to approach potential contributors. Then the project trifurcated: not only would we have a book, we would somehow bring together contributors in a conference, and we would have a website. At first an international online video-conference was envisaged but practicalities - not least of time-zone differences - proved insurmountable. An International Initiatives Grant from Cardiff University and a Music & Letters Trust award provided the answer by providing funding for a two-day academic conference which would not have come into being without the energy, fruitful exchanges and support of all our collaborators"--
