Here is me playing a few pieces from Carmen. I usually do them as a medley, but I have made the videos as 3 separate videos. It's certainly not the sound that a real orchestra gets with these pieces, but they were fun to try to learn and play etc.

Toreador:
Habanera:
Carmen Prelude:

If anyone's interested in playing these pieces, I modified some 'fake-book' type of sheets for these pieces, with easier-to-read chords and other details etc. If anyone wants I can send them …

Beautiful work, Jim. I really like your choice of sounds and your arrangements...your music definitely has your own unique stamp on it.

Hi - thanks for the comments … I wondered if many people might like to hear some operatic/orchestral-sounding music … I like lots of classical music but I'm typically not a big opera fan. However, the music from Carmen was on my "I wanna learn some of these pieces" list for a while!
