    What I find so amazing about Dan aside from his incredible voice, is that he appeals to people who never liked metal or opera . He has been able to capture a wide range of people and introduce them to different genres that they never thought they would enjoy. Not many artists are able to which between genres with such ease.

    Dan’s tears are very real. He shared this love of opera with his late father. Thank you for not being an opera snob. Dan is an amazing artist who sings many many genres. I feel immensely blessed I found him singing on RUclips last Christmas.

    I loved your professional breakdown of Dan's performance of this beautiful aria. Back in the early 90s, I was fortunate enough to see Pavarotti in concert while living in Houston (absolutely phenomenal and worth every penny). When I recently heard Dan sing Nessun Dorma, I was blown away at how well he did it for someone who was not a professional opera singer. I did pick up on some of the same things you pointed out, but I also loved it so much, regardless. Dan has received classical training and even taught voice lessons at one time. Being Brazilian, his first language is actually Brazilian Portuguese, and he's learned English as a 2nd language. He's part Italian on his Dad's side and his Dad was an opera fan, especially Pavarotti and Bocelli. Dan is currently learning Italian, too. He's always learning & refining himself in every way possible. Some of the tension & raw emotion you saw may have been due to the fact that he did this only months after the death of his father from cancer and Dan did quite a few songs in honor of his father's memory. Dan also did "American Trilogy" by Elvis Presley as a tribute to his father just mere days after losing him because his father was a really big Elvis fan, as well. Dan does everything from Folk/Operatic styles to 80s Rock & Heavy Metal. He also converts regular songs to metal versions and he has a metal band called Fearless consisting of his younger brother and two close friends from church. He's collaborated with other RUclips personalities on numerous works and also with professional artists like Fabio Lione (Rhapsody and Angra), Luis Mariutti (Angra and Shaman), John Schlitt and John Lawry of Petra, etc. He also did some backup work on one of Sir Christopher Lee's Metal albums just prior to his death. Lee was going to lend his voice to narration on Dan's band's album (Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom), but sadly passed away before that could be done.
    Some other songs you might enjoy would be Dan's duet with Rhen Stillnight perfoming the Bocelli and Brightman song "Time to Say Goodbye", his Phantom of the Opera covers, his version of "Gethsemane" from rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar, his Handel's Messiah Hallelujah Chorus (One Man Choir), and his phenomenal version of Amazing Grace which was what introduced many of us to him. Opera singer Peter Barber did a reaction to Dan's Amazing Grace, then discovered Dan's Witcher covers because he's a fan of the games & series just like Dan. Those covers are conversions of bards songs played with lute accompaniment into heavy metal infused versions that actually have more views than the originals. He is such a multifaceted, creative artist who's always good at surprising us.
    Thank you so much for lending your professional take on Dan's abilities with such kindness & appreciation for who he is.

    When you talk of his tension, it could be emotional as this was one of his late Italian father’s favorite Italian songs.

    Very nice and professional analysis without detracting from the overall work of art. Dan is Brazilian and not a professional opera singer. His passion is metal, symphonic metal. He can handle any genre. His voice is unparalleled in every area. All cover songs are recommended, as are his own songs. Have fun browsing his channel. I'll be back for the next reaction. 🤘💪♥️

    Hey:) Thank you so much for your great and incredible reaction and analysis to this fantastic vocalist, Dan Vasc!!! I was very happy that you enjoyed Dan's beautiful performance. He always impresses me with his beautiful voice, his vocal range and the great and true delivery in his presentations!!! I think you'll enjoy seeing him perform Hallelujah, where he performs his own choir with 24 voices. Another great and magnificent performance was in Gethsemane, where he proves to be an excellent actor as well. Dan is brilliant at everything he sets out to do 👏🏻. I look forward to more reactions from Dan. Thanks again ;)

    Dan makes any song he performs his own. No way in any form is he an opera singer. I think he did this aria well not to shabby. He is a metal singer. He does have over 200 songs he's been at it long time. He range is low to very high. He is a very gifted and talented young man, how is always willing to learn . Enjoy Dans rabbit hole, which we all have loved. Thank you for being fair. I enjoy opera too.

  • @KarySR47
    @KarySR47 3 месяца назад +10

    It's very interesting to hear a reaction to this cover from someone who knows about opera. I know nothing about singing or music, so I've always wondered how close Dan's singing here got to classical opera style. I also appreciate that you still understand that Dan is not an opera singer, and he was trying to do his own thing here.
    Now it would be nice to see you react to something where Dan is more in his element. Some of my favorites I can suggest are his covers of "Toss a Coin to your Witcher", "Burn Butcher Burn", "Bring me to Life", "Black Wind Fire and Steel", and his most recent "My Heart Will Go On" (mostly because hearing this song in metal style is pretty funny).

    Thanks for your reaction. Dan was classically trained. He may not sing in the "traditional" way, but you can bet that it is exactly the way he has chosen to express himself. He can sing in many genres. Keep in mind that he lives in Brazil and speaks Brazilian Portuguese and also very good English. He creates his videos at home. So it may not be sung in the traditional style, but I have to say I find it my favorite of all the versions I have heard. JMHO

    Love, love, love our reaction! Helps me a lot to prove to myself that I'm right in my assessment of Dan Vasc's vocal performance. Thank you so much! You've said that "he approached it in a way that's authentically him " and Dan Vasc does this in all the covers he released on RUclips. I never know what I get when he covers a new song, but I always know that it will be an epic and surprising rendition that sounds better than the original and that he once again goes all in.

    I am appreciative of this reaction. I love whatever Dan does. Opera is generally not relatable to me. The reaction was done is such a pleasant way that I really learned a lot. The mood was good and it would be unlikely that someone would be offended by the criticisms. They would want to listen to learn. I find myself fascinated that opera isn't just unnatural sounding singing (to me), rather I learned that operatic singing is learning how to use all of the body. I had no idea. Sir, I would like you to react to a metal song of Dan's. I would find it interesting to see your comments on how Dan uses his voice in metal. Thank you.

  • @TheAnnestube

    I can only say this - If 'real' opera was performed like that, and sounded like that, i would be spending every single evening in the opera house.
    After listening to Dan's version of this iconic song, traditional opera versions always leaves me in some peculiar way disappointed and wanting.

  • @mamiemartinson4649
    @mamiemartinson4649 3 месяца назад +3

    Dan Vasc is from Brazil, so lots more rolling of the R's are common. He's the only heavy metal singer I can listen to and this was so powerful and moving. If you listen to his version of Amazing Grace he cycles through several styles of approach and it's respectful and then soulful at the end which is different than I've ever heard it done. But his approach makes sense from a point of telling the story of someone saved by grace and so deeply grateful and aware of one's flawed nature.

  • @pyewackett5167
    @pyewackett5167 3 месяца назад +8

    Thank you for the in depth analysis of Dan's rendition of Nessun Dorma . He is from Brazil and his native tongue is Portuguese but he mostly sing in English but does some Christmas sone in Italian. You may enjoy his rendition of Music Of The Night or Gethsemane but you check some of his others works: Toss A Coin To Your Witcher and Burn Butcher Burn ( from the Witcher), I'll Make A Man Of You (Mulan), Amazing Grace, Bohemian Rapsody, Dawn Over A New World (Dragon Force), Handel Hallelujah (which he sings all the parts), his latest release is My Heart Will Go On (with a metal twist). He can sing any genre of song and a catalog of 240+ videos and just in May reached his goal of 1 million subscribers. There is so much to chose from. Dan puts is heart and soul in every song and brings a emotions balance and inspiration. Looking forward to you next reaction from Dan.

  • @crystalinahenry4104
    @crystalinahenry4104 3 месяца назад +15

    I'm glad to see you have finally discovered Dan! He is from Brazil, and his diction in most of his songs is really good. Generally you can understand most of the words in his songs, which can't be said about some metal singers, that's for sure! You need to watch some of his Metal songs to see what he can really do! :)
    I would recommend I'll make a Man out of you for his theatrics, if you want to see his breath control, watch Black Wind Fire and Steel, to see the range of what he can do with the metal Genre, watch Bring Me to Life, to see a bit of his fun personality, watch Bohemian Rhapsody, or Pour some sugar on me (trip to the beach),
    If you want to see some of what he calls insanity, watch his 24 man choir Hallelujah Chorus! If you want to see his range, watch any of his female covers, but his Nightwish ones are especially amazing.
    He also does an amazing rendition of Amazing Grace, and has some Christmas metal covers.
    I have subscribed to your channel, and I'm hoping you will do more reactions to his other works. :)
    I really enjoyed your analysis of this. Keep it up! :)😊

    You got him, Dan "unique take" Vasc. The rolled R's are natural to his Brazilian heritage, but he does have some experience with the classical world, I believe. He is a true crossover artist...not a metal singer, not a showman singing showtunes and definitely not a female singing female covers. He's not even a Disney prince, but he has covered all those and MUCH more. He has even turned himself into the entire choir in Handel's Messiah.

    Dan puts his own artistic style and spin on every song he sings and he may not follow exactly the strict rules of classical music or opera but the average untrained person will not hear what you hear. It was very interesting to hear your professional reaction and opinion. His talent is beyond words and so many of us feel his music in our souls. I've never cared for metal or opera but I can listen to any of his songs and be moved to tears and experience chills like I never have with any other singer. I think 1.1 million subscribers is just the beginning for this young man. I am thrilled for him and look forward to hearing any covers he chooses to sing - he sings most songs better than the original singers. Amazing! Thanks for your reaction!

I hope you will react to more of Dan's work, such as Amazing Grace, Angels We Have Heard on High, and his metal covers such as I'll Make a Man Out of You, the Disney Mulan song, and Priscilla's Song (metal cover) from the Witcher. Thanks so much and I have subscribed and looks forward to more.

  • @rjross1087
    @rjross1087 3 месяца назад +6

    I enjoyed your reaction and analysis! Dan never set out to become an opera singer, but found that he needed to learn how to become a good singer before he could become a good metal singer, which is still a technique that amazes me - it doesn’t involve the vocal cords! - and he has become a GREAT metal singer. As I’ve often said, no opera singer could sing his version of Burn Butcher Burn (from The Witcher), which I highly recommend. Dan is often called The Man with A Thousand Voices, and several are on display in that song. I think his voice is gorgeous and his expressiveness and charisma extraordinarily. As others have said, he also sings in a number of genres besides metal. Try The Music of the Night or Gethsemane for Broadway Dan, or Angels We Have Heard on High, in five languages and with a “chorus” of Dans, or some of the other suggestions already made. I truly appreciate hearing from people who know what they’re talking about. Thanks so much!

    Btw Dan is also a gamer, has his own retrogaming channel, and has a hysterically funny sense of humor. His actual full name is Daniel Vasconcelos (plus a few other names), but he shortened his name when he branched out to a wider audience outside of Brazil.
    He does everything out of his home, often mixing & mastering his work, plus is quite good at theatrical elements & filming aspects, too. Yet, he leaves all his work on his RUclips page and website in order to gauge his progress and inspire others to pursue their goals relentlessly. He's also considerably humble with an innate sense of honor & integrity while being just enjoyable to hang out with on a live. Those qualities have endeared himself to many, and that is why Vasc Nation has grown exponentially in recent years. Some of Vasc Nation are the very ones who've reacted to his music and now also follow him on other social media platforms.

    He does speak fluent German in addition to Brazilian Portuguese. What I love most about Dan is he doesn't sing a song He emotes a song . Since he hit a million subscribers maybe you could do a Million Dreams from greatest Showman. He also does Music of the Night from Phantom and Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar that very much would be quite at home on a Broadway stage . Thank you very much and I hope to hear more of Dan on your Channel

    I absolutely loved your reaction to Dan Vasc with the pros and cons.I have learned more about singing. You go into such great detail.. I watch and listen to him alot because he does so much with his voice. Thank you,
    He used to listen to opera with his dad, who is now deceased. Dan sings a variety of predominantly rock ‘n’ roll music. He is a performer and has learned how to use his facial expressions to develop his personal style of singing with many different effects. As a power, metal singer, he likes to make all songs his way. I caught a lot of that in your critique. He puts a lot of his passion into his music where in this song he looks like he’s ready to cry. So glad you enjoyed him because he is an excellent performer.His performances are simple but engaging. Absolutely fascinating!!!.

    I’d love to see you do a reaction video of Dan performing as a one man choir Handel’s Messiah. It showcases his vocal ability like no other video! I’m 63 yr old grandma from the Midwest and love everything Dan does. I’m one of his 1,000,000+ subscribers. #VascNation 🎉

    Really enjoyed your analysis from an operatic standpoint. Dan has such an amazing range and can cover so many genres. This cover is not trying to impersonate Pavarotti or any other amazing operatic tenor. More opera with a little grit 😁. Love your enthusiasm in the reaction❤.

    But isn't it wonderful to have the whole package? Dan is handsome, so are you, where Pavarotti is not easy to look at. Maybe I sound very shallow but I prefer the whole package that Dan offers! And I know he struggles but he can bring happiness also❤❤❤

    I once attended a management seminar that taught that each criticism I a negative performance evaluation should be clothed in a compliment to soften the blow. An iron fist in a velvet glove sort of thing. I don't recall your presence in that room, but you must have been there! Your recovery after laughing out loud at our dear Dan was a master class in that concept! I nearly choked on my chardonnay! Priceless...

      💯 agree! My favorites of Dans are Gethsemane and Nessun Dorma even though I’m a metalhead at heart. Hail VascNation ❤

    In Brazil it is important to completely pronounce words. Also they roll "R"'s in Brazilian Potuguese. Dan feels it is important for him to speak and sing in English because the most of his listeners speak or understand English. It hasn't thrilled many Brazilians, who feel he should perform in his native languaage.
    Dan' father was Italian and they listened to opera frquently. Dan can speak five languages.

    Rob and Austin from Home Free turned Nessun Dorma into a duet. From the point of view of somebody with no classical training at all, it sounds pretty good.

    It's always fun to see someone new to Dan's music react to it...I don't think anybody expects what they hear. At the same time, it's really interesting to hear a detailed technical analysis of what he does in Nessun Dorma. I think we all know it's not gold-standard opera technique...it's still an amazing, absolutely stirring performance.

    A lot of coaches/reactors rarely talk about tension affecting the sound. Plenty of them mention posture and proper breath support, diaphragm engagement etc. Tension changes the sound a lot, I have severe plantar fascitis, doing some crazy stretching dynamically changes my breath support and I am able to sing much more freely. You do a very good job of explaining what's going on for the lamen like me, Dan introduced me to this song. Glad you enjoyed Dan, he's great, I'd suggest checking out some of his Manowar or Iron Maiden covers to hear him at his best, never a bad Dan song.

    • @Lydelith
      @Lydelith 3 месяца назад +2

      I suggest Dan's "Black Wind Fire and Steel" Manowar cover and "The Trooper" Iron Maiden cover. Not to forget his "The Number Of The Beast" Iron Maiden cover.

    I preface my comment by saying thank you. Your mastery of the art has given us an excellent review and view of what you and others classically trained see as pure and correct opera. That said, I believe the numbers of opera enthusiasts having the expectation of perfection and exactness you present to us are relatively few compared to millions of other music lovers preferences. I do appreciate your review of Dan’s interpretation of Nessun Dorma. However some like me due possibly to a lack of knowledge concerning opera may not fully understand your critique although extensive and for the most part objective. I’ll admit it was difficult seeing and hearing you laugh saying whatever it was you were laughing at was just bizarre. Maybe it was what you often said was choppy. I noticed you made compliments but other than the last minute or so they were sadly followed with a criticism. In music I understand what speaks to my heart and soul. Pavarotti, and his interpretation of this aria made it the standard, making it his own. However others have also beautifully made it their own and as you suspected this is what Dan Vasc has done. He made this aria superbly his own so much so that I now do have an appreciation for opera. Pavarotti’s rendering may be considered perfect by most but seems dry almost sterile and more about precision than the passion and emotion I so much prefer. Dan’s ‘rendition’ here and with many of his covers has given me goose bumps and brought me to tears which for me isn’t typical. Whether it be the grit the passion or Dan’s embodiment of the songs he covers, in my eyes he is incomparable. Aside from his voice he is a genuine, sincere, funny, witty, intelligent quality man of faith uniquely trained, talented, blessed and gifted. He is lovingly referred to as the Brazilian with a Million. These are just my thoughts and views, no one else’s. I’m not defending Dan. He doesn’t need it. His abilities, reputation, achievements and dedication are evident and stand on their own.
    Thank you again, Donna Woytovich

    Beautiful reaction. Thank you for your "criticism," which was nicely explained. Dan Vasc is absolutely phenomenal and has the most versatile, powerful, beautiful voice on the planet. I hope you'll react to more of the many genres he covers. I'm subbing and will be here for the next one!

    so enjoyed your very informative reaction. i learned so much. i wish all reactors were as knowledgeable instead of just exclaiming "wow" and waiting to see if any metal was introduced into the song. one of the things that you notice throughout dan's works is his wonderful diction. so many songs that i have listened to years and first understand the lyrics after hearing dan sing them. i am wondering if perhaps the connectivity that you wish would be more present has been sacrificed in the interest of diction? does that make any sense? hope to hear more dan reactions from you. subbed.

    Yes, I am here again, When I hear Dan sing I feel it in my body, sometimes when he sings I don't breathe, I hope I am a normal fan lol. I have always loved classical music but love everything he does, Are you American? if you are, listen to his "Star Spangled Banner" PS, I think he is part Italian on his dad side.

    Hey, if you ever want to look at a really good dig at the egos of classical singers, look at Mireille Delunsch's La Folie with maestro Minkowski, including not ending the notes when they should. Just say gimme if you can't find it.
    Fairy Tale next, so you can hear Dan's full range. The live version of the original very much recommended also. There's Dawn of Victory ft. Fabio Lione, Burn Butcher, Burn, Kiss from a Rose, Black Wind, Fire and Steel... But for a real outpouring of emotion, Son of Pain.
