Conductor at the Santa Creu Theater of Barcelona, Carnicer dedicated himself mainly to opera, in a style halfway between Rossini and the bel canto composers such as Bellini or Donizetti.

He wrote symphonies, overtures, songs, chamber and quite remarkable church music, all of it within a completely Romantic aesthetic; he was one of the first composers to exploit the most exotic resources of Spanish Folk music during a time when it was beginning to be fashionable in the rest of Europe.
