    Tara, your reaction was educational and entertaining. Amira is an angel with a most-beautiful voice. I can't help tearing up watching her sing. As a 73 year old pianist, I've accompanied choirs and soloists, but no one like Amira. She is wonderful ❤ !!

    Amira's well-trained soprano's technical prowess is unheard of at the age of 10 - and the voice of an amazing child prodigy is heard. Very early on, Amira's vibrato and squiro virtuosity is miraculous, touching the hearts of listeners and giving the whole audience a standing ovation.

But I must say your reaction is one of the best, maybe even the best reaction.

    So many people say young people can’t sing opera because they’re voice is so young. But there always exceptions. You can tell she’s singing with ease. There’s no tension to straining. And she doesn’t do the classic thing that some children do where they push the larynx down to sound more mature. I think that’s where problems start

    Amira has been my favorite singer for a long time. From the first time I watched her on Holland's got talent and fell in love with Amira as she came out on the stage and how confident and how she was enjoying herself and loved singing for everyone. I have enjoyed watching her grow and mature and have loved all her songs but I must say I have not enjoyed any one as much as I have enjoyed your expertise critiquing her and your knowledge in how you explained the things she was doing as she sang. The one thing I know she sings from her heart and how deeply she feels about what she is singing. She wanted to sing and listened to RUclips and found she loved Opera and listened and learned. She was very young when she started and is 18 now and still is as sweet and talented now . She was 9 when she won Hollands got Talent. I am so glad you found her and hope to see you soon listning and critiquing once again. You have a beautiful voice as well and am going to see if I can find you singing and will love to hear your beautiful voice in song. Thanks so much really enjoyed Tearesa

    Wonderful reaction Tara!!!!!!! oved it!!!! Best opera singer reaction ever!!! She had NOOOO training until Andre spent a day with her before she went to the live shows of HGT in 2013. Not sure how many lessons she had between that time and the next summer when she did this performance. She watched the lips and repeated it till she sounded like Maria Callas or whomever she was studying. Yes, Andre does a masterful job of translating Amira to the orchestra. And Amira conducts Andre--nobody else has mentioned this!! She is so much in the music. I have never heard of "covering" till you said it. Amira did it because she saw Maria and or others and tried it till she got the sound they had. That's how she taught herself!!!! Thanks so much for all your knowledge!!

I strongly recommend Amira's "Nella Fantasia" performance from 2016. She hits puberty at this point and her voice just takes off more than this one!

    Hello, lovely Tara!
    I don’t know who suggested to react to little Amira (‘cause she is almost 18 now) and whoever it was I thank him (her) and of course I thank you for taking that suggestion - you made my day. The last word of the song is “morir” (dying), which has two “R”s in it and little Amira had this cutest thing about her “R”s … I don’t know if you noticed … anyway, that was also a great part in her advantage besides that covering technique you mentioned.
    I was so happy to see you again with your hair arranged in that Russian style - thanks for that too.
    From Romania, with love …

    An absolutely first class reaction Tara. It is so refreshing to listen to a Reactor that actually knows what they’re talking about & to explain to the viewers the finer points of the artist’s performance. First time listener & have immediately subscribed to your Chanel.
    I see you tend not to reply to the viewers comments, but am asking you to give at least a thumbs up if you intend to continue with future Amira reactions.
    There is one point that is often missed. That is that Amira is Dutch & this Aria is in Italian, so we have a ten y.o having to learn & understand the lyrics of a completely foreign language, & then to put so much passion into it is mind boggling.
    Cheers Graeme

    This is by a mile the best covering of Amira's talents I have seen so far. And yes, Maastricht in the very south of the Netherlands is so non-comparable to the rest of the country that it makes you wonder how it ended up there and maintained its uniqueness over the centuries. The Dutch sometimes refer to it as the Paris of the North, in my humble opinion it beats Paris in any regard. On one of her last interviews on Dutch TV (Gelderland) she claims it's actually not her singing, just being an instrument for some other force, which makes you wonder why Maria and Amira share the same syllables. She's said it before and sometimes its almost visible when she ends a song and returns to the "normal" young lady she is.

    Thank you Tara for such an enthusiastic reaction to Amira... Truth is though, this is pretty much the universal reaction to hearing Amira for the first time!
    And, yes, this performance is spectacular!
    Amira is eighteen now (ten at the time of this performance) and recently graduated high school. This dear lady has continued to improve her singing all the way through and her technique and control is pretty flawless now! Many very informed people regard her as almost peerless, even at eighteen, in the world of the lyric soprano! Sounds crazy I know!
    Even for yourself, irrespective of posting videos, you owe it to yourself to watch the prodigious amount of material on RUclips documenting this young lady's progression. IMHO many of her performances throughout her teens stand as the new standard for those arias... Again it seems crazy to say this of someone so young! Yet, I believe that many of those performances will only be bettered by Amira herself when she revisits them periodically!
    In addition it is well worth discovering all you can about Amira when she is not singing! No spoilers here! You will discover that she is not only remarkable when on stage...
    I wish you many many happy and joyous hours discovering a truly rare individual: Amira Willighagen!

    You need to watch (the full video, please) her debut performance on Holland's Got Talent (that she wins, by the way!) with this same song. Only later did she start taking classes... first she learned on her own by watching videos at home!!!! If I'm not mistaken, the interval between her debut and the performance with the wonderful Andre Rieu was only 6 months (in other words, she had still studied very little, officially speaking). She tells the jury that her brother was going to play the violin at church and she wanted to present something too. That's why she started watching music videos on RUclips, she really liked the opera performances and she started trying to imitate it at home, and she learned, but without any professional guidance, simple as that!! Absolutely incredible! A true gift!!! And she says that her dream was to sing with him, and people got in touch, sent him the video and he accepted!! Splendid!!!!!

      Her audition was on August 31, 2013. It was not broadcast until October, 2013. The semi-final and final of HGT were in the last week of 2013. She got a recording contract with SONY in January 2014, and a vocal coach ( Maike ) and started working on her first album, which she recorded in February 2014. The Andre Rieu performance was on July 12, 2014, so you are mistaken. Hope this helps.

Amira also sang this song at her HGT audition (before any singing lessons) amazing the judges, and went on to win singing Ave Marie and Nessun Dorma at only 9 years old.

    Amazing for one so young to know what she wants and goes for it with a real work ethic and be able to take on advice and actually do it. Probably being a winning cross country runner helped with her breathing too.

    She learned to sing by watching people singing opera on RUclips. I think she was 7/8 when she turned up on Netherlands got talent (I think) or the voice or something of that ilk. She sang the same song there, she’d never sung in public before. I think I’m right in saying that when asked what she wanted to do when she grew up there was no mention of singing, I think she said she wanted to take part in the olympics

      She did Hollands got talent about 6 months before this performance, when she was still 9. Andre gave her a little coaching, but he admits he is not a vocal coach, most of Amira''s skill was inate talent, and assiduously watching and copying opera singers on the Internet.

Another seggestion: Listen to Sissel Kyrkjebø ( with José Carreras When You Tell Me That You Love) Slow down with the Tabernacle Choire and much more other beautiful songs. She is brilliant!!

  • @jonlaan658

    I am not a singer but a violinist andlistener to classical since 10 years old, but probably even earlier since my parents were classical/opera fanatics before my birth and I probably got a good dose even in the womb. That said, I went from Sutherland to Callas and lately have found Leyla Gencer, as great as Callas (I believe) but not much recognized (She was Turkish and did not have the media machine behind her, I gather.) What do you opera buffs out there know of her? Let me know. Also, Ms Tara, do you have an opinion about Leyla? I am seeing more and more videos on Leyla lately.
    I see no one even close to Di Stefano these days, but I am quite prejudiced as I view Di Stefano as one who sang as if the present song were going to be his last, I mean he seemed to spill his guts in almost every performance.

    You should watch her Holland's Got Talent audition. You find out that she is self-taught by watching RUclips videos. She had no training until she did this concert.

    • @dafyddllewellyn6636
      @dafyddllewellyn6636 Год назад

      To be precise: She was self-taught ONLY up to her audition on Holland's Got Talent (August 31, 2013). She had a "master class" with Andre Rieu in London on December 7, 2013; the semi-finals and finals of HGT were in the final week of 2013; She got a recording contract with SONY in January 2014 and a singing coach (Maike van der Weile) and recorded her first album in February 2014. Her performance with Andre Rieu was on July 11/12 2014.

      You're wrong! She had no lessons prior to her Audition for HGT on August 31, 2013. After that, she got a "Master class" with Andre on December 7, 2013. After her victory at HGT, she got a recording contract with SONY and a singing coach, Maike van der Weile, and set about recording her first album - she received the first disc on her 10th birthday (March 27, 2014). Her concert with Andre was on July 11/12, 2014.
