He was a nice man also. A friend, who is fantastic on the keyboards, was playing in a hotel lobby. As he was playing, out of the corner of his eye he saw an entourage stop and listen. One of them began walking towards him and when he turned to look, it was Pavarotti. He handed him two tickets to the evening's performance and the use of a limo to travel to the event. It was an unforgettable evening for both him and his son. They were treated like royalty, even though no one knew who they were.
Thank you for sharing your story
He was a perfectionist. His face at the end shows the knowledge he nailed it.
A huge heart. Some people are given a gift. The rest of us just need to appreciate it.
I get teary-eyed every single time I hear him sing this song. It's amazing.
absolutely
so do I
Me too 😢😢😢❤
I get chills every time. I've heard it thousands of times and live a couple of times.
You witnessed an Angel sent to us. I'm a 56 year old punk/metal/jazz drummer, this still tears me up today. ❤❤❤
OMG. I will never get over the perfection of Pavarotti's voice. I miss him and his lighthearted duets done with non-operatic singers like Brian Adams and Bon Jovi, etc.
He even performed with the Spice Girls 😂
Same
...and Tracy Chapman.
And James brown and Steve Wonder.
He was truly a gem 💜 I grew up wanting to be an opera singer partly due to him
No one has ever sung it better. And in this performance, his face tells us that this performance was one of his best; if not
the best.
I can actually see him taking your breath away and I think it's beautiful
My singing teacher at university worked with Pavarotti once or twice. He wasn’t a young man by then, but she said it was a master class in how to perform every time, even just in rehearsals. What a treat his voice was!
That song by Pavarotti never fails to bring me to tears… it was one of my dad’s favourites… 💔 He really was an amazing singer!
No one else can sing this.
Dan Vasc can. ruclips.net/video/8ZkFeS9milM/видео.html
Caruso? Gigli? Surely Caruso is the greatest tenor ever recorded.
Actually Ge Korsten from South Africa sings it just as well!
You don't know oprea
I loved Pavarotti but I think Placido Domingo is also wonderful. I think the two best tenors ever.
This is from Puccini's Opera. It's the story of a princess who refuses to be married. To discourage men pursuing her she states that anyone wanting her must answer 3 riddles, but anyone that tries and fails is beheaded. She kills many many men until Pavarotti's character comes along. He's loved her for very long and he successfully answers the riddles anonymously. She's absolutely furious and announces that no one is allowed to sleep that night until he is found and brought to her so that she could kill him.
This song is him somewhat mocking her "Nesun Dorma" = "none shall sleep" and announcing that he will win. The last two lines that were very powerful actually mean "I will win".
Gorgeous opera and breathtaking song.
Actually, "Nessun dorma" I think it should be best translated in "none dares to sleep" or "none sleeps" .....I don't know which is the rightest.
One small correction; The princess doesn't want to marry him after he completes the riddles, so he challenges her with a riddle of his own and gives her all night to work out the answer. If she gets it right she may kill him, but if she is unable to answer the riddle she must marry him after all. I forget the wording of the riddle, but it ends with "what is my name?" The princess believes the answer to the riddle is the name of the man, but she is mistaken (the answer to the riddle is "love."
During Nessun Dorma, the princess is torturing somebody she believes knows his name. The whole kingdom is forbidden to sleep (or afraid to sleep? I forget the specifics on that). Calaf (the man/character who is trying to marry the princess) is declaring that he will win the contest of wits along with the heart of the princess.
@@abbajabba7 thanks for this edit.
You aren't alone.
Millions of people worldwide were left speechless by this performance.
RIP Pavarotti.
And brought to tears
I have goosebumps every time I hear Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma; it's my favorite aria.
I NEVER tire of this performance. Still get goose bumps and a lump in my throat, decades after the first time hearing The Master. Now off to work with a calm fuzzy feeling 😊
When Pavarotti was born, God breathed on him. There's no simply no other explanation for a voice like that. Yes, there are other tenors such as Mario Lanza and many others that I like. But no one brings the emotion to the music quite the way he does. And he makes it look so easy. He almost never looks like he's straining at all. Love this video and could watch it all day.
I saw Luciano twice live and he was the GREATEST tenor known
I regret that I never saw him in person. Such incredible talent! You don’t even have to speak Italian to feel the emotion. What a voice!
I listen to this to remind me there is still beauty in this troubled world. Always makes me cry!
I feel like you're a baby hearing and seeing things for the first time. I am so glad you have an open mind to hearing other types of music.
Nessun Dorma is from the Puccini opera, Turandot. Whenever I hear Pavarotti perform this, I hold my breath and tear up. With all respect, no one else can sing this song like he did.
Here are the lyrics in Italian and English:
Italian:
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, Principessa,
nella tua fredda stanza,
guardi le stelle
che tremano d'amore
e di speranza.
Ma il mio mistero è chiuso in me,
il nome mio nessun saprà!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo dirò
quando la luce splenderà!
Ed il mio bacio scioglierà il silenzio
che ti fa mia!
(Il nome suo nessun saprà!...
e noi dovrem, ahime, morir!)
Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincerò!
vincerò, vincerò!
English:
Nobody shall sleep!...
Nobody shall sleep!
Even you, oh Princess,
in your cold room,
watch the stars,
that tremble with love and with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
my name no one shall know...
No!...No!...
On your mouth, I will tell it when the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve the silence that makes you mine!...
(No one will know his name and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win! I will win! I will win!
I always love seeing people become overwhelmed with emotion the first time they encounter the master performing.. we all were exactly the same way ❤.. how lucky we are to have this recording to watch and enjoy..
Have you noticed the subconscious reflex to sit up taller as Pavarotti reaches that final crescendo. Sebs did it - eyes widen, eyebrows up, sits back up in the chair, jaw dropped and SMILED!! Goosebumps had to be rising! Bravo.
I understand how you feel. Pavarotti's voice always takes me away, like I'm far above the world, and when the song ends, I don't want to come back. He truly was the Master.
The finest male voice ever recorded.
Great reaction by you.. made me grin when he literally sat you back in your chair :)
Caruso still. There are many. Pavarotti had a limited repertoire
I think Jilted John takes a bit of beating.
@@davidcopson5800 his voice is not holding it and it is all a struggle. Low notes right at the beginning slipping.
Might i suggest the earlier scene that is the setting for Nessun Dorma and you will see what I mean. You tube Non Piangere Liu Domingo and Leona Mitchell. It looks green but it is fine. Listen to a voice holding every note as does Pavarotti's.
@@davidcopson5800 please if you feel like it shut your eyes and listen to Caruso sing Nessun Dorma in around 1914 following through his top notes to his low notes. He was known as the great caruso. There are so many wonderful tenors but I think he is my best.
Corelli was better
I was lucky enough to see Pavarotti many many times at NYC's Metropolitan Opera House and this video was later in his career, he was the most amazing singer I have ever seen, he had a clear , strong, beautiful voice and his Belcanto technique was flawless and he made it appear effortless but as a classically trained singer I assure you that it is very hard work but the training teaches you to make it look like it is easy . Thank God that so many of his performances were recorded, there will never be any like Pavarotti.
Assuming that most people probably don't speak or understand Italian .. you have no idea or clue as to what the song is actually even about but we love it anyway because it simply sounds incredible and it almost takes you somewhere else. And therein lies the beauty of music for me at least.
Grandma listened to Opera. Still makes me cry. Thank you Grandma.
Luciano the Great, what else can you say. Still can't believe there are people who don't know who he was. Thank you for your appreciation of this great artist!
Goosebumps every time I watch him
I love listening to Pavarotti. His was the last concert my hubby took me to. My husband passed tragically 3 weeks later. Now when I listen to Pavarotti I feel closer to the man I thought I'd be with forever.
THE voice! 🥹🤗🥰👏👏👏🥰🤗🥹
The maestro that was Luciano Pavarotti R.I.P maestro. Another great tenor was the late great Mario Lanza ❤️❤️❤️
Pavarotti's first experience of singing outside his home area of Medena, Italy was when he was 19 and sang with a choir from his home town at the Llangollen International Eisteddfod in Wales. It was in June 1955. As a 6-yr old, this concert was my first time at a big musical event, and our children's choir sang just after the Modena choir. Obviously, back then I didn't know I was sharing a stage with a future singing icon. Pavarotti returned to Llangollen 40 yrs later for the 50th Anniversary Eisteddfod. I wasn't able to be there, but my oldest son and my daughter went. What a treat.
Great reaction! You're very expressive.
Pavarotti is the GREATEST tenor to EVER grace a stage! You don’t need to know what he says to understand what he means. But if you wanna know what it means in English:
None shall sleep!
Even you, oh Princess,
In your cold room,
Watch the stars,
That tremble with love
And with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
My name no one shall know,
No... no...
On your mouth, I will tell it,
When the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve the silence that makes you mine!
(No one will know his name and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win!
I will win!
I will win!
Caruso? So many.
I was just listening to another channel and it was Rob and Austin from Home Free doing this song.. and I loved it .. but I just had to listen to the master.. Luciano do it again..non opera fan except for this song.. lol.. my Mother and sister tried their best to make me an opera fan.. no.. but I do love this song and Luciano is perfection with his tenor voice.
Every hundred years or so comes a mezmerizing opera tenor. Enrico Caruso was one. There are a few very grainy recordings of him. Ours is Pavarotti. Aren't we lucky to have digital recordings of this man. As I get older I come to appreciate his talent even more. I wish he were still alive so I could witness his voice in person!!
Yes! Mr. Duran; he was a truck driver before he took singing lessons! He's ALL MAN!!!! The greatest tenor that ever graced a theater or stage!!!....RIP
Growing up in an Italian family, Pavarotti was played often in my grandparent's home.Even as a child, I remember loving his voice. It stood out to me, and I could feel the emotion behind the music, though I did not understand the words (often Italian or Latin). My uncle said he was going to take me to see him, because he was going to be playing in NY. Well, my uncle tried to get tickets, but they sold out too quickly, and the price for scalped tickets was ridiculous. Sadly, I never got to see him live. It must have been amazing.
It is funny because this was an old Pavarotti. If you listen to his younger self, he was, somehow, even more amazing.
I've seen his performances of this aria from his youth where he held that last note far longer. But I think that was when he was still showing off. By this point in his career he understands that it's not about him, it's about serving the purpose of the opera. Also, in his youth his tone was more nasal, here it's round and full. This performance was Pavarotti experienced and at the height of his powers.
So Glad you did this one!!! Pavarotti was the best - hands down - the end! And he was at his best so ging puccini! And of puccini operas - no one sange nessum dorma (and Sooo many have recorded it) as well as him.
My personal fav is his Olympic performance. It was the turino olympics- right next to his hkme town. The crowd sang the choir part - after all their italian so they know it - and he knew this would be the last performance. He was dying of pancreatic cancer. It was so meaningful and special. Theyll never be another like him!
I loved his Pavarotti and friend specials because they showed he wasnt a diva - he lived mysic and no matter what kind of music you did .... if you did it well ...he reveled in your mysic just as much as he did his own!
I love to watch reactions to this...he was a legend for a reason
My mother in-law loved Pavarotti. Thank you for this reaction.
Luciano Pavarroti is the absolute best. I was blessed to see him live in concert & was blown away
You must not miss... Pavarotti and James Brown on stage together Singing " Its A Mans World " it will blow your mind its SO Good !!!
To know that somewhere in cosmic time and space, the most beautiful voice singing their perfect song...perfectly. It doesn't happen lightly and it doesn't go unnoticed. Maybe you do not like opera...but you know this is the very best this song will ever be sung. So I have heard the most beautiful, perfectly tuned human voice singing Nessun Dorma. I had the opportunity to see him perform once. I do not remember what his first song was. He was much older and maybe not as perfect. I do remember how the first note he sang felt. It blasted across the coliseum in Biloxi, Mississippi and engulfed the entire space..the air, the people, the hallways..it covered everything. One of my top 10 life memories to date.
Chills. Every. Damn. Time.
One of the greatest tenors of all time,he had such a beautiful voice.
Perfection. Makes me cry in the beauty of it.
This song is straight emotion and makes you happy to be alive.
It never fails to give me chills
The Master enjoying his work. The Greatest of All Time! Check out "Ave Maria". Nessun Dorma means no sleep....no one sleeps. Years and years of practice. RIP Luciano.
Seeing him in concert is one of my joys
David! What an awesome taste of music you've got - thank you! 👌🏻
And Sebastian, I really like your reactions. With your lovely wife too! 💪🏻
Pavorotti said, Elvis can sing like me but I can't sing like elvis! I saw him in concert and he changed the whole atmosphere!! ❤
Pavarotti played this role in the opera "Turandot" many times, where players have to sing and act. In this concert, at the end of this song where he sings "I will win, I will win, I will win", his facial expressions reflect that role, he is acting. There are many operas on RUclips, some with English subtitles so you know what its about. Start with light, comical operas like The Barber of Seville (Rossini) and The Marriage of Figaro (Mozart). Other fan favorites are Carmen, LaTraviata and Madame Butterfly. They will make you cry.
No words needed after that voice, brother. Great video!!
You should seek out the clip from the Grammys a few years back where he was scheduled to receive a lifetime award & sing this, but was struck ill. At the least minute, Aretha Franklin agreed to step in & she stunned everyone with her rendition & did him proud!
Pavarotti -- to hear his voice in the 1970s brought life back to opera.
A great reaction to one of the most powerful performances ever (in my opinion). A bit of performance geekdom for you. Luciano sings for a little over 3 minutes. That standing ovation you see starting at the end of the video. That lasted for over 20 minutes!
The greatest operatic tenor who ever lived...... in my opinion! :)
Caruso? Pavarotti 's range of operas was very limited.
Wow.....the Three Tenors performance at Caracalla in 1990, I believe was played all over the world....everywhere....very famous concert with Luciano, Jose Carreras and Placido Domingo. The whole concert is fantastic. Zubin Mehta, the conductor here was the conductor. If you have never read anything on it, researched the charity work it accomplished, DO. The concert is world class.
He has to make it till sunrise in order to "win". And that is the sound of victory at the end! Now that's just my feeling when I hear this.
As we say in Texas; y'all b eafe.
The performance of a lifetime
the last notes of this never fails to give me chills...he's amazing.
Pavoratti said he “dies” every time he performs. He leaves nothing within himself, all is given as he sings.
One of top voices of the last 100 years !
Goosebumps everytime ❤
THERE IS ONLY ONE AND ONLY WILL BE ONE PAVAROTTI....NO DOUBT!!! HE MAKES ME CRY EVERY TIME WITH THE BEAUTY OF HIS VOICE!
The way his first note flows so effortlessly into the music and his obviously having been transported to some wonderful place at the end it is effortless. No one ever will compare.
This is why the world loves opera.
His is often considered the gold standard for performing this song. However others have performed it with extraordinary beauty. Including Sarah Brighten, and the amazing Jose Cura. I would love you to react to Sarah Brightman and Jose Cura performing a duet on "Just Show Me How to Love You." Their voices together are otherworldly and the song is soul shakingly beautiful.
I love that you reacted to this, but so many reactors listen to just this song, and then NOTHING ELSE. If I could make a reaction suggestion, look up his rendition of ‘O sole mio. There are multiple versions of Pavarotti singing o sole mio, but the version I would recommend, just to pick one, is the duet version with Bryan Adams. I love how happy Pavarotti seems in this version, though he also seems to really be enjoying himself immensely in the three tenors version as well.
You can't think of what to say because his voice and this song give you emotions and awe that you can't describe. I grew up liking pop and rock/ metal. I have so much appreciation for other genres now, and this is one of my very favorite vocal performances of all time. I'm amazed. Every. Single. Time.
I never got into this music until i seen the concert U2 did with him. He sang with so many people its amazing!
As a child I suffered from terrible insomnia. It wasn't until I found the late night opera program on the radio that I was able to sleep. I understand what you mean by relaxing your brain when hearing this beauty.
This was the 1st Three Tenors Concert. Pavarotti, Josè Carreras and Placido Domingo, Conducted by Zuban Metta. The entire concert is Amazing.
Thank you. A great reaction with nothing needed to say. We all feel the joy and the elation of the music.
I love seeing the emotion you went through at the end. His performance no matter how many times I hear it has that affect on me.
this is one of the best performances of Nessun Dorma, although there are other renditions by Pavarotti that show that he did vary in his performance a bit.
Done not so flawlessly but with so much emotion is one video that might still be out there on youtube of a young Italian tenor singing Nessun Dorma from his balcony during the first and horrible covid lockdown in Italy. Gives me chills, still, because the climax of "vincere" took a completey different meaning then.
Mr. Pavarotti was a wonderful tenor. Lord welcomed him home way too soon. My mother had the great privilege of seeing Luciano perform in ‘89. She still to this day, some 35 years later, talks about how he had the voice of an angel and wishes we could have seen him perform together. Andrea Bocelli is going to have to do! 😂❤
This story and when this Aria comes in.....it's so powerful for human emotion. I will win! To know the story is to give this Aria all the power it truly brings and is.
I’ve loved this song for years and I’ve never known the words. Still tear up every time😢
Saw him in person 1977. Was so close to him his sweat almost hit me. There will never be another like him.
It doesn't matter how many times I hear this masterpiece. I'll have goosebumps and my eyes in tears
I used to sing but lost the ability from lung disease. I appreciate many singers but opera stirs your soul! You hear the magnificent talent these people are blessed with who have honed their instruments!!!
He makes it look effortless, but it is anything but. It is a lifetime of incredibly hard work and discipline and a staggering amount of talent. That is opera. When done well, it is simply unbeatable.
He gives me goosebumps and makes me cry every time
Beautiful it makes me cry
I was there. Luciano was in his finest voice.
Dan Vasc does this song also. He used to listen to Pavorotti with his father. Check his version out.
HE IS GONE NOW BUT IS VOICE CAN ALWAYS BE HEARD!! NO ONE ELSE LIKE HIM!!
One of the all time greats. An obvious statement but still.
Some might argue there were a very few who were Pavarotti's equal, but no one has ever been better.
You don't have to understand Opera to "get" Opera. This song brings me to tears and goose bumps every time Every Time !!!
You might want to check out Dan Vasc’s Nessus Dorma. It was his late father’s favorite opera (he was of partial Italian heritage). Dan performed this song shortly following his death. You can see the emotions overtake him, as he and his dad were especially close. Dan’s performance is, as with everything he does, literally extraordinary!!🌻
Wow!! I really love your reactions....this was so sincere! I can listen to this over and over and it is fun to see different reactions and yours was fine!!😊❤
Plus, you're channeling his beard power. Facial Hair Fabulous
Yeah, that's what he did, made people just feel good. Miss the guy so much
Unquestionably the GOAT. God rest his dear sweet soul. 💔 🙋♂
Aaaaah love me some Pavaroitti! Loved his movie Yes, Giorgio!
