Music reviews of Artist Portrait Jose Cura

Music Review: Primo Tenore
Rating: 4 Stars

As the Domingo/Pavarotti era has come to a close, we find that a new generation of tenors awaits their time.
Jose Cura is without a doubt one of the greatest tenors of the new era!

Now I realize this statement will raise quite a few eyebrows, as I know that many, many tenor lovers, particularily those who have a deeply rooted affection for the lyric tenor voices of Pavarotti, Alvarez or Gigli, do not think Mr. Cura's dark and muscular tenor worthy of consideration.

Let it be known that, to date, Mr. Cura IS the foremost operatic tenor of the world.
He has more CD's on the market than any of his contemporaries (Alagna, Licitra, Alvarez), and a wider international appeal.
In fact, I was introduced to the Cura voice in a record store in southern Germany. I was looking for a Bocelli CD and the store clerk advised me to check out this Jose Cura. I bought the Verismo CD and upon hering it, I was convinced that this man would be the successor to the aging Domingo.

Anyhow, this CD is a great sampling of most of Mr. Cura's current CD releases.
His reading of Puccini's "E Lucevan Le Stelle" and " Nessun Dorma" are inspirational. His take on Verdi's "Nun Mi Tema" form "Otello" showcase why Mr. Cura has become the most sought after "Otello" of the post-Domingo era.

The only reason I did not give this CD a 5 star rating, is because of the inclusion of a few tracks from Cura's "Anhelo" which was supposed to be collection of Argentinian "folk" songs. However, the end result sounded more like a Spanish version of German Lieder...which is to say boring beyond imagination.

I would have much preferred to have a few songs from the exquisite "Bolero" CD included. For some reason not one track of what I consider Mr. Cura's finest CD was included in this compilation.

Overall this is a fine compilation of a PRIMO TENORE.
