Carmen: Duets & Arias is an album released in 2010 by Italian tenor, Andrea Bocelli.[2] The album is a collection of arias of Georges Bizet's opera Carmen, including duets with Welsh bass-baritone, Bryn Terfel, Russian mezzo-soprano Marina Domashenko, and Italian soprano Eva Mei, from the French opéra comique.

In 2005, Bocelli recorded the opera Carmen. Myung-whun Chung conducted the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France and the Chœur de Radio France for the recording. Welsh bass-baritone Bryn Terfel, mezzo-soprano Marina Domashenko, and soprano Eva Mei, were also part of the Ensemble.[3]

In 2008, Bocelli played the role of Don José on stage, opposite Hungarian mezzo-soprano Ildikó Komlósi, as Carmen, at the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, in Rome, for four nights, from June 17 to June 28.[4][5][6] Bocelli released the complete opera recording of Carmen, in Italy, in the same year.

In March 2010, the recording was released Internationally.[7] Carmen: Duets & Arias contains highlights of arias and duets of that recording.
