Carmen er det mest kendte værk af den franske komponist Georges Bizet, og en af de mest berømte operaer i hele kunstarten – numre som Habaneraen og Toreador-sangen har gennemsyret den folkelige bevidsthed, som lidt andet har gjort. Operaens hæsblæsende kombination af lidenskab, sensualitet og vold viste sig i starten for meget for scenen, og den var en kritisk fiasko ved premieren i 1875. Bizet døde kort efter og fik aldrig at vide om den spektakulære succes, hans Carmen ville opnå: Operaen er blevet opført mere end fem hundrede gange alene i Covent Garden.
