      It looks to me that, contrary to the "But he seems mad" comment, it's more of an exhaust feeling. It feels like "Crap. I just can't get away from classical music...I'm just so tired of hearing it played." I'm glad he shakes off that feeling and gives a great performance.

      As a singer, I was also impressed how he was able to belt out those notes and volume while having his arms crossed(for some parts). You restrict your diaphragm and breathing while doing that, so apparently the singer is just that damn good(which he is). They both did an amazing job.

      For note I'm actually not so sure... could be totally wrong but I have a but of a feeling by his expressions that he was actually trying to work out where the guy was at in the song and whatnot as it varied from his standard if the whole thing.
      I only say this because I'm a professional musician myself of several instruments and it really does look like that. I don't think if it was staged you could put it in so genuinely. And trust me those are the real expressions of someone lost as to where you are in a piece, not someone that has practiced it several times

    Singing is way more complicated than I originally thought, there's so many slight things you can do to change your tone. The main one ive noticed is how much air you put behind a note, things sound way different based on your exhale speed. And you can sing for longer between breaths or with more power depending on the amount of air used. The most impressive part of opera singing to me is their extensive use of full exhalation but never hearing them breath

      Not quite, Sunshine. Iraq invasion was evil and lethal. This talented artist offers neither effect.

    Насколько скромен этот восхитительный певец! В конце он похлопал пианисту! Безусловно, это труд выиграть все ноты, но его пение просто божественно. Никакие басковы, которые мнят себя оперными певцами не то что рядом не стояли, а вообще не стОят и ворсинки на его пиджаке. Браво! ❤

    I don't believe for a second that they didn't plan this, but I like the story that they just happened to be there at the same time and had practiced this Aria so well.

      It's great but of course definitely staged. OP just get more clicks with a title that misleads people into believing it was pure coincidence.

      I have to disagree. The singer wasn't warmed up and didn't "hit" every note just at the very beginning. I believe it was spontaneous.

      @@bjbj3853 there's footage of the singer reacting before we know he's a singer. That's proof. Also, there's a camera man in the restaurant

      If they planned this, they didnt go over what parts would be played. If anything it was a planned prank on the singer or something.

      Also all you would have to do to get multiple camera angles here would be to walk around after and hand out a card with your social info on it for them to tag you. Wait a couple weeks, check the tag and bam multiple camera angles
