Shchedrin wrote his "Carmen Suite" as a one-act ballet which was first staged at the Bolshoi Theatre in 1967. The music was a great success and has been recorded several times; it was composed for strings and percussion (including vibraphone) - an unlikely combination on the face of things but which here is very successful. Shchedrin has written that "in my view, the ballet orchestra should always sound several degrees 'hotter' than the opera orchestra". With his virtuoso writing he certainly achieved this aim.
