    Every performance is beyond expectations. I just keep waiting for the next performance. Since her three performances in Hollands Got Talent she has gotten better in time, don't miss any performance.

    Great reaction, John! Amira won Holland's Got Talent at age 9. Amira is a world-class super soprano. In this video she beautifully projects the very high note Eb6, which at the age of 13 is absolutely paranormal. She sings classical, semi-classical, crossover, gospel, musical and great movie soundtracks. She has sung so far in 9 different languages: English, Dutch, Spanish, German, Afrikaners, Italian, French, Latin, and Swedish. She is the youngest soprano to reach number one on classical music radio in Europe. She has been donating half of everything she earns to build playgrounds in poorer schools in South Africa since the age of 9. At age 10 she received in the Vatican the Humanitarian of the Year award.

    13 years old here. Won Hollands Got Talent in 2013 at the age of 9. At the time of her audition she sang O Mio Babbino Caro and won the golden ticket to the semi finals where she performed Ave Maria by Gounod and then performed Nessun Dorma in the finals to win. You might find it interesting that at the time of her auxition she had never had a vocal lesson. As you surmised there was more raw talent in that tiny 9 year old body then most highly trained 35 or 40 year old performers.
    My suggestion would be to start at the beginning and follow her growth as she learned and grew both in size and ability. You have an amazing journey ahead of you. Amira (pronounced A meer ah) is currently 19 years old

    This girl can sing a simple ballad, a prayer, an opera aria, a musical, you name it and give you chills and maybe tears every single time. I have not found any one else that can do that to me. And what is so amazing is she is so very young. An amazing talent!!!!

    Yes, it was a large production - Title "Classics is Groot" ("Classics are great" in Afrikaans). It was held in 2017, in Pretoria - the capital of South Africa. This was item #19 of a total of 31 items in the concert; Amira also performed Item #14 ("Nessun Dorma" - from the opera "Turandot" by Puccini - singing in Italian, and in item #15 ("Flower duet" - from the opera "Lakme" by Delibes - singing in French, with Corlea Botha), and in the two last items, "Amigos para Siempre" and "My Way" for both of which the whole cast was on the stage. Since January 1 2018 she has been living in South Africa, where she finished high school last year, with an astronomical pass.

    If you were already so amazed by Amira's "Amazing Grache", her interpretation of "Your Love" will blow you away.

  • @andrewclayton4181
    @andrewclayton4181 Год назад +8

    Simply she is the best. She likes to sing opera arias. ( Nessun Dorma, o mio babbino caro ) religious hymns, ( How great though art, Nearer my God to thee) Movie music ( Nella Fantasia, Gabriella 's song, your love) theatre musicals ( sound of music, phantom of the Opera. )
    Classics is Groot, in south Africa, always go for the big production, but she doesn't need it listen to her sing Gesu Bambino, in her local church. Awesome.

  • @johnbattles1002
    @johnbattles1002 Год назад +10

    Great reaction! Her name is pronounced "ah-MI'-ruh." She's 13 in this performance and is now 19. Please react to her audition at age 9 singing "O Mio Babbino Caro" for Holland's Got Talent. She went on to win that season's show! Her name, in Arabic, means "princess," but we fans know that she is really an angel from heaven! The beauty and purity of her heart, soul, and Christian values are as exquisite as her vocal and physical beauty and purity, shown through her humanitarian efforts over the years and her foundation called Gelukskinders ("Lucky Children") through which funds are raised to build playgrounds in South Africa (where she now lives) for impoverished children and their school districts! She is precious!

  • @LucyQuinn99
    @LucyQuinn99 8 месяцев назад +2

    As someone who knows Amira personally I can state:
    Amira is widely considered to be the best singer in the world. She has amassed over 1 billion fans worldwide. Miss Amira also recieved a 10,000 person standing ovation at just the age of only 9. She also won Holland's Got Talent at age 9 as well. Amira has had no lessons or voice training to date. Amira's voice and quality might only be achievable after 20+ years of nonstop hardcore training. She has sought out vocal teachers and lessons countless times only to be told "I'm sorry, there is have nothing more I can teach you." She is now 18 years old and her voice is only going to get better. She says she learned from watching RUclips videos.
    Over 1 billion fans
    Over 5 billion views

At 10 years she created her own fundation for build playgronds in poor zones of South Afrika . Now she is 19 years old and her voice is more briliant . Amira can sing Opera songs or also songs from musicals

    Every time I see her videos it makes me laugh. As it reminds me of her first audition as a cute little girl and when she got the thumbs up she fell to the floor lying on her back with her arms and legs up in the air pretending to be a dead bug. 🤣
    It shocked and confused the judges and the audience as they didn't know if she had a seizure or what. Her parents later explained that she does that at home sometimes as a joke to express and Oh my God I am so shocked, or something like that. Just a strange sense of humor and as a little child she didn't have any social filters to not do that on stage. Hahaha!
    Go watch her first audition. She was so wonderful, cute, and so funny.

    Nice reaction,thank you.Amira had not received any formal singing lessons,before she entered "Holland's Got Talent."Before Amira went on stage,she was given a few coaching tips,by some of the organisers of HGT.She had taught herself to sing by watching videos on You Tube of Luciano Pavarotti,Maria Callas and Andrea Bocelli, while copying their mouth movements.Amira went on to win the competition, with more than fifty percent of the votes. You have discovered a human treasure in Amira and you can not go wrong in following the path of this incredibly talented young woman.Cheers from, Michael Jonathan Lewis, Johannesburg,South Africa.

    Now that I have watched to the end, well done on a great reaction. Always interesting to see a metal vocalist react to classics. I am a blues vocalist so I can appreciate the reaction and how impressed you were with her. Amira is an angel, with an incredible talent. She was discovered as a self taught kid of 9 years old when she won Holland's got Talent and since then, she has gone from strength to strength. She is an incredible young lady and the world is at her feet.

    You want a big production? See her perform at the age of 10, on stage with Andre Rieu in the Netherlands, singing O Mio Babbino Caro before approximately 12,000 people. She got a curtain call and standing ovation. She is now 19 and lives in South Africa and has sung across the world. Operatic arias, classic crossover, musicals, hymns, fun songs like Little Drummer Boy with the Mzansi Youth Choir, etc. Many of us have played her songs almost every day for 10 years. Amazing Grace was composed by John Newton (born 1725). A former slave ship captain who became a Christian and opponent of his former trade. This is his testimony of the forgiveness and grace he found in Christ. Amira would claim it as her faith also. There is much more to know about Amira, but I'm sure her many fans will soon tell you. Thank you, John, for your great reaction. Best wishes, JOE.

    Amira Willighagen has been an international Oprah star since the age of 10, singing in the Maastricht Square in front of 10,000+ people with full orchestra led by world-renowned conductor André Rieu, and this tiny girl blew them away in tears. This is an incredible performance at ruclips.net/video/66-A2MyVDbU/видео.html . Then at age 13, she performed the highly complex "Flower Duet" in concert in South Africa. Stunning performance. ruclips.net/video/Kk1l84UW1pI/видео.html In 2019, at age 15 ,she wrapped it up with "The Sound of Music" -- that was amazing. ruclips.net/video/RcojA7k7kGA/видео.html You can go back and look at her first 9-year-old performance on Holland's got Talent ruclips.net/video/qDqTBlKU4CE/видео.html, and then her Ave Maria performance.

      How did you manage to place links in your comment??? RUclips always delete my comments if I place a link, and once when I kept repeating it not understanding what's happening, they banned me for 24 hours with a warning to not do spamming. ( I was not, I was just helping someone to see a video he was looking for).

      @@danl.4743 You expect me to be a Psychiatrist for RUclips? Most people have no idea what they do or why. Sometimes they accept my links (I don't know why), and sometimes they don't (I don't know why). It may be because my posts are usually lengthy, and they might get buried or hidden in them and not caught by RUclips's software algorithms. If I just say "Oh, try this performance.. then put the link, it kind of sticks out. That is my best guess.

If you want to know how to pronounce her name correctly, in September 2021 Amira was part of a Veterans benefit concert and she introduces herself and her father on piano before singing "When you wish upon a Star" in a slow tempo that shows her great lung capacity and the power of her divine voice!
