I attended the recitals in Yokohama and Nagoya. José still keeps his voice in very good shape since he started this Japan tour. Although the two recitals had the same program, it seems to me that at the performance in Nagoya, José's voice was more beautiful and powerful than on 18th in Yokohama.

Encores were almost the same as ones in previous recital in Tokyo. But, tonight we got a special present from José. He sang "Parlami d'amore" as one of the encores. This was the first time for me to hear him sing this song in his recital. It is always a pleasure for me to hear a new song.
