Musician

The high note is not the only thing.

If money was my only motivation, I would organize myself differently.

The public made me and then encouraged me for many years, and my future even now depends upon it.

On the other hand, I have devoted so much energy to reach the top that I accept the stress of being there.

I feel at home in an orchestral score.

We all have a destiny in accordance with the breadth of our shoulders. My shoulders are broad.

Should it happen tomorrow, I would fall to my knees to give thanks to God for such a career.

This season, over eight productions, I am presenting four young tenors.

I was married at 16, a father at 17 and divorced at 18.

Let us be clear: I take ten times more money for a concert than for an opera performance.

Every three days on average, I am alone on stage, facing the public.

When working with an orchestra, you never spend more than 20 minutes per recording session.

My strength is my enthusiasm.

When I was a young man, I was a baritone, very far from possessing the whole range of the tenor then.

I feel like a little boy who is constantly offered new toys.

But enough joking. I am singing. This is all my life.

In the last century, everybody was singing lower.

To stay at my best, I have to stop talking during the preceding day.

But I won't deprive myself of singing opera as long as my voice follows.

I attended less than two years of Conservatory in Mexico City.
