oh, I'm late. José Cura is indeed a phenomenal tenor. One of his favorite roles is Verdi's "Otello". A very rich voice and excellent actor too, José is everything a singer may dream to be. I'm glad that you discovered him. As usual, he was ignored at the small circle of opera directors of Argentina, especially in Buenos Aires, until he made a brilliant career in Europe, then he was invited to sing at the Colón Opera House, and he accepted without any hard feelings.
Watch at his CD of popular songs, they are excellent too. Un abrazo, Andrés
