Georges Bizet Books

October 25, 1838 – June 3, 1875

Georges Bizet, a composer and pianist, is celebrated as one of the most significant French opera composers. His oeuvre, though tragically brief, possesses a brilliance and individuality that profoundly enriched a vibrant period of French music. Despite initial controversy and a lukewarm reception, his most famous opera has become universally beloved and is performed worldwide. Bizet was a rationalist thinker who found pagan authors more artistically inspiring than the rigid, intolerant nature he perceived in contemporary Christian writers.
