Daniel Catán (April 3, 1949 – April 8, 2011) was a Mexican composer of Russian Sephardic Jewish descent known particularly for his operas and his creative friendship with the tenor Plácido Domingo. Catán composed his music in a neo-Romantic style that was highly lyrical. Opera News stated that his music had "a distinctive lushness that seemed of a piece with the twentieth century's great movie music yet remained unquestionably operatic in scope." <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Daniel+Cat%C3
