My name is José Cura – would you like to see my playlist?

»You put me in a complicated situation because I don’t usually listen to music. After hours 'doing' music, my preferred sound is silence… And I am not kidding. But here are some songs I love to hear when I break the silence, sometimes on a Sunday at home«. José Cura was engaged to direct Den Jyske Opera's version of Puccini's Tosca in Aarhus. But a few weeks ago Cura decided to perform the main character Cavaradossi at the premiere. Cura is famous for his intense and original interpretations of opera characters, as well as for his unconventional and innovative concert performances. He is originally trained as an orchestral conductor, and made history when he first conducted Pietro Mascagni's opera Cavalleria Rusticana and then stepped on stage after intermission to sing.

Seismografs playliste er skabt af kunstnere, musikere, kokke, forfattere og cykelryttere. Hver person anbefaler fem musikstykker, som verden skal høre. Stafetten sendes videre.

En playliste er en liste med video- eller lydfiler, som kan spilles på en radiokanal eller i et program til afspilning af lydfiler. Nogle mennesker mener, deres bedste venner er playlister. Playlister siges at være noget af det mest intime, man kan dele.
