about

Habanera is Georges Bizet's most celebrated aria. He died just after Carmen's 1875 premier. The habanera rhythm (heard in the traditional bass line—we switched it to a pilón) is Cuban; it reached Bizet via Spanish composer Sebastián Yradier. The spoken intro is from the opera's recitative: “When will I love you? My goodness, I don't know. Could be never, could be tomorrow. But not today, that's for certain.”
