Customer Reviews Love the music! I was already very familiar with the music, and this version of it is absolutely perfect!. Great Instrumental Carmen How can you go wrong with this? The NY Philharmonic and Leonard Bernstein. . . perfect together. Best of Carmen e. I definitely prefer Carmen performed by only the orchestra (i. , no singing), so looked specifically for that when deciding what to purchase. This is an excellent price for an excellent recording. Bernstein knew what he was doing! I actually lost this CD awhile ago, and liked it so much I went out to replace it with the exact same version. If you too like Carmen without the singing, I would highly recommend this album. . .
