José Cura is an Argentine operatic tenor, conductor and stage director from Rosario who launched his international career in the late 1980s and early 1990s, performing in opera houses across Latin America and Europe. His musical style centres on the dramatic spinto tenor repertoire and on integrating singing with conducting and stage direction, with a career that has evolved from principal operatic roles into regular work as a conductor and director across a wide operatic repertoire and contemporary productions.
