José Luis Perales (born January 28, 1945 in Castejón-Cuenca, Spain) is a talented singer and composer who has presented part of his extensive work in Carnegie Hall, New York. Since tender age, he showed his pasion for music, and at age 6, he learned how to play the lute. At 16, Perales studied to be an Electrical Engineer at the Universidad Laboral of Sevilla with a scholarship. He joined the tune and learned how to play the guitar. And it was there when he knew that music was going to be part of his life. After university, Perales went to Madrid where he finished his studies and continued with his music. His first opportunity was as a composer because he did not like to sing and did not want problems with his girlfriend, Manuela. Encouraged by her mother, Mariana, Perales sang in his hometown and some local festivals. However, it is not until he met Rafael Trabucchelli (main Spanish music producer of the time) in 1970 that his career changed totally. Trabucchelli tried to convince Perales to sing but not good results. Perales composed “Por que te vas?” (why do you leave?) performed by Jeanette, which sold 4 million copies worldwide in 1972, and it is how Trabucchelli finally persuaded him to sing. Perales humbly admitted that it was luck what allowed him to succed.... Read More About José Luis Perales Biography...
