The music of Micaela and Escamillo may be less original, but the charm of the former and the coarseness of the latter are intentional attributes of the characters.
The opera is the supreme achievement of Bizet and of opéra comique, a genre it has transformed in that Bizet extended it to embrace passionate emotion and a tragic end, purging it of artificial elements and embuing it with a vivid expression of the torments inflicted by sexual passion and jealousy.
however, was condemned for its 'obscene' libretto, and the music was criticized as erudite, obscure, colourless, undistinguished and unromantic.

Drum music was brought to Barbados by the first Africans who arrived as slaves in 1627.
The English colonist thought that the slaves would use their drumming music to organize and ignite rebellion against them, so they instituted a law in 1688 to prohibit the playing of the drums and other "heathenous noises" on the plantation and even in the town.
The music takes the form of three major patterns - the Waltz, the fassie (or March) and Tuk, which itself is an infectious 4/4 rhythm.
