Wall Street Journal
On a balmy Labor Day evening, the Lincoln Center plaza was packed with people watching "Carmen" on a large screen in front of the Metropolitan Opera House. The 3,300 chairs set up on the plaza had all been claimed by late afternoon; hundreds more viewers brought their own chairs, bought cushions from a shop set up near the fountain, or stood. The crowd, a mix of young and old, die-hard fans and people who had just wandered by, seemed spellbound by Carmen (Elīna Garanča) and Don José (Roberto Alagna).
