About
Better known as José Carreras, is a Spanish operatic tenor who is particularly known for his performances in the operas of Donizetti, Verdi and Puccini.
Born 5 December 1946, in Barcelona, Spain. He made his debut on the operatic stage at 11 as Trujamán in Manuel de Falla’s El retablo de Maese Pedro, and went on to a career that encompassed over 60 roles, performing in the world’s leading opera houses and on numerous recordings.
He gained fame with a wider audience as one of the Three Tenors, with Plácido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti, in a series of large concerts from 1990 to 2003.
He is also known for his humanitarian work as president of the José Carreras International Leukaemia Foundation (La Fundació Internacional Josep Carreras per a la Lluita contra la Leucèmia), which he established following his own recovery from the disease in 1988.
