Concert by José Cura & Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestr

Time: 2019.10.20

Place: OAC Music Hall

World-famous for his intense and original interpretations of opera characters, as well as for his unconventional and innovative concert performances, tenor José Cura is a familiar name atop the marquees of the most prestigious theaters. But Cura is much more than an operatic star: he is a trained composer and conductor, an opera director, a stage designer, a brilliant performer, and a natural showman determined to use the best music to engage, entertain, and educate.

From 2015 to 2018, Maestro Cura has been appointed “Artist in Residence” of the Prague Symphony Orchestra. In 2015, José Cura was honored by the Argentinean Senate, with the Domingo Faustino Sarmiento Prize for his achievements in education and culture and in 2017 he was entitled Professor Honoris Causa of the National University of Rosario, Argentina.
