It suggests the fluttering of a bird (Carmen sings that 'love is like a bird that flies when you try to catch it'). Shortly after this, the menacing 'Fate Motive,' is stated, which  repeats throughout the opera as an omen of death. The famous Habanera is played straight, without the impromptu quality of the previous section, but in the repeat, the flute plays variations on the theme over a traditional orchestral background. Next, comes Les Dragons d'Alcala, a military number which was an Entr'acte in the opera; that is, an unsung interlude between acts. Lastly, while the orchestra plays the Song of the Toreadors, the flute improvises rapidly, and the work comes to a rousing close.’- Illinois State University Symphonic Winds. Francois Borne was a beloved 19th century French composer, flute maker and flute professor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gerard Billaudot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46965336047910,"sku":"9790043014577","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/C000680160254644_d.jpg?v=1697459154","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/borne-f-fantaisie-brillante-sur-carmen-brilliant-fantasy-on-carmen","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
