About

From the hero of Werther to the villain of Carmen, Carreras has shined in a wide range of operatic roles. His membership in the Three Tenors increased his fame yet more; now, he's the star of his own 2-CD anthology: Nussun Dorma from Turandot; E Lucevan Le Stelle from Tosca; C'est Toi! Ce'st Moi from Carmen plus everything from Grieg and Strauss to Rodgers & Hammerstein!
