Jose Carreras

Spanish tenor Josep Maria Carreras i Coll known simply as Jose Carreras in the world of music is perhaps best known internationally for his performances in the operas of Verdi and Puccini yet he infrequently tours to different countries in order to spread his music to fans who may not necessarily be able to access it live otherwise.

There is a definite ambience before Jose steps out as the audience chatter in hushed anticipation as the accompanying musicians file out onto stage and take their place. There is sections of brass, strings and percussion tonight all to aid in the recreation of Jose's performance yet the man himself is very much at the centre of this precise operation. Often lit by a chilling spotlight, he holds the attention of the whole room with his surpassable vocal as he holds the tenor notes like no other. The evening is a celebration of classical music with one of the most incredible frontman you would have the opportunity to witness.
