If this is enough for not occour in Copyright restrictions I think is the smarter way. U dont blur, you dont stop every 10", 1/3 less of dysplay we can survive ;)
i Saw Pavarotti 6 time in my life...one time was working in his restaurant (Europa 92 in Modena)... I was arranging the pantry and I was signing a Luciano song for fun ... and suddenly I heard a high pitch coming from the main room ... it was Luciano (Pavarotti) himself singing along whit me...(or making fun of me :-) )... a moment i willl NEVER forget...
Pavarotti never made fun of anyone , he was a class act and as humble as they come. You only have to watch his Pavarotti and friends concerts to know this
@@jackwhitbread4583 There are classy, ironic and friendly ways to make fun of someone without offending, when using common sense it's possible to make and take jokes even among people who don't know each other, at least here in Italy, i dunno about where you come from
@@michaelburgess6556 Maybe that’s what he is doing now singing to the Angels,, I was living in Australia when I first heard him sing. I was not a big fan of Opera but he sure changed my mind. I listen to him sing at least once a day it’s food for my soul
ci sono tanti tenori bravissimi...ma la dolcezza e allo stesso tempo la potenza ce l'ha solo la voce del nostro grande "maestro" Luciano Pavarotti! meraviglioso!
I think it is impossible not to appreciate the beauty of his voice, his complete control of the notes and the wonderful music written by Giacomo Puccini (Opera Turandot). Whatever musical type you love (rock, punk, rap, trap or everythink you want), this romance and this singer give you goosebumps!!!
Well,this is OPERA. Luciano was born for this and je became the number one in past century. His purity,perfect speeking,his singing rich in mid tones and power in hight tones,made him "THE MAESTRO" perfect video to shows what is opera. Talent,hard daily practice and passion. Ps: rewatch his face at the end.
I live in Pescia, a city in Tuscany a few kilometers from Lucca where, on December 22 1858, Giacomo Puccini was born there. This below is a story from a friend of mine: Puccini had been attending Pescia for over twenty years, since in the spring of 1895 he wrote to his sister Ramelde, whose husband Raffaello Franceschini was director of the Tax Office of Pescia, asking to help him find a house to compose his new opera in all calm. After various searches, the suitable accommodation is identified in the villa of Count Orsi Bertolini, now Anzilotti, on the hills of Uzzano, in the locality of Castellaccio. Surrounded by olive trees, cypresses and a large garden with a pool in the center, the Villa del Castellaccio proved to be the appropriate environment to inspire him to continue his work, since here he ended the 2nd and 3rd act of Bohème starting the fourth, then finished in November in Torre del Lago. It is said that in the summer at night Puccini used to bathe in the villa's tub, covered only by a white sheet, and how the neighboring peasants seeing him in the moonlight became frightened by believing him to be a ghost. Another singular episode occurred when the Mochi brothers invited him for a replica of his famous Bohème at the Pacini Theater. At the beginning of the second act, the tenor complained of a sudden drop in his voice, declaring it impossible to continue the work. Violent protests broke out in the stalls and above all in the gallery, so much so that, in an attempt to save what could be saved, the soprano who played Mimì declared herself willing to play both roles, female and male. So the work went to the end in an atmosphere of pure student spirit. After this, everyone turned to the royal box where Puccini was to see his reactions. Contrary to what everyone expected, Giacomo burst out laughing stating that he had never seen that melodrama transformed into a very funny comic opera. That evening ended at Cecco's, where the Mochi had invited him. Before leaving, Puccini said jokingly: "If you try to repeat one of my works in Pescia, I'll come with a hunting rifle and I'll shoot you all." This obviously did not happen and the friendship with the two brothers became even closer, in the memory of this funny incident. Subsequently Puccini was also co-opted into the board of directors of the Civic Theater, today Pacini managed until 1895 by the Accademia degli Affilati. Thanks to his sister Ramelde Puccini, in his Pescia period he was introduced to the good Pescia society, he met the most influential local personalities and cultural environments, becoming honorary president of the Valdinievole Cycling Union and, having a passion for hunting. he also became honorary president of the newly formed Valdinievole Hunting Society. In nearby Montecatini, Puccini was a frequent visitor to the thermal baths where he spent his days walking in the green city or listening to good music at the Tettuccio establishment in the company of Verdi, Leoncavallo and Mascagni and frequenting characters from the opera world such as the librettist Giovacchino Forzano, the conductor Arturo Toscanini and tenor Enrico Caruso, while in Monsummano he made friends with Ferdinando Martini. In Pescia Puccini was also appreciated for his sporting skills, in fact being a bicycle enthusiast he was associated by his friends Anzilotti, Mochi, Lavoratti, Pacini, Bartolozzi and Palamidessi to the Pesciatino cycling club and in their company he embarked on some excursions in the surrounding area. He also participated in some races making himself honorable so much so that in an article published in "Eco della Valdinievole" on 29 June 1895 we read: "On Tuesday 25, the Valdinievole Cycling Union had the honor of hosting Giacomo Puccini, the lucky author of Manon Lescaut. Strong and likeable type of man, he is a passionate hunter and talented cyclist. Our Union today has the pride and the fortune of having him Honorary President. But be aware that as in the field of music, even in cycling he sows many on the road. Unfortunately, the other day I saw how he reduced his traveling companions. Respectfully speaking, they looked like many peppers ». Puccini was also honorary president of the Pescia Hunters Section, founded on January 1, 1900, by Raffaello Lavoratti, municipal secretary of Pescia, who was its first president (he was responsible for one of the first drafts for a single law on the hunting of young Italian state), and being a passionate hunter he went with his small boat especially on Lake Massaciuccoli, where he had a villa and which was managed by the Marquis Ginori-Lisci, together with well-known personalities including the Pesciatini brothers Mario and Davide Bartolozzi, the brother-in-law Raffaello Franceschini and Giovanni Manfredi known as “Lappore”, due to his white eyelashes, managing to bring back as many as 50 coots in a single hunt, not disdaining small birds, woodcocks, hare and wild boar. Puccini also loved to take trips to the villages of the Valdinievole with his mighty car, even in a caravan with other friends who owned one like the Vivaldi-Mochi and the Magnani. Nice and with a strong sense of humor and like a good Tuscan, he was a lover of good food, he ate everything, not just the game he got from hunting. He especially loved the foods of his land, including the Sorana beans that he tasted with trusted friends from Pescia in the "Da Brandina" wine shop which later became the famous "Da Cecco" restaurant, so much so that he sent his friend and publisher Giulio Ricordi a recipe specifying add some ingredients such as sage leaves or garlic heads.
He is simply THE GREATEST. After him a lot of other talented singers has sung this song, but they simply can’t compete with him. I have goosebumps every time, and tears in my eyes. He is really missed.
I agree with you, very little has come after him, but I don't agree on the "greatest". Before Pavarotti there were undoubtedly better tenors. Try listening to Giacomo Lauro Volpi's Nessun dorma (Puccini wrote this romance for him). There is a version in which Volpi sings it at the age of 80 played in Barcelona !! The theater literally exploded !! Then again Franco Corelli, Enrico Caruso, Beniamino Gigli, Mario Del Monaco, Giuseppe di Stefano. In short, it is no coincidence that bel canto was born in Italy!!! Anyway, I love Pavarotti very much!! OMG I forgot Aureliano Pertile....a fantastic tenor and a beautiful strong voice!!
When I was just a child my grandfather always sang me this 'aria' from Turandot and a tear fell... so for me this song is so moving.... Ang thanks for your music 😍
Pavarotti orgoglio Della Terra che Sono nata. Arte, cultural, voce e passione senza fine. Canta in Cielo Luciano. Canta in Cielo con il Signore, Angeli, arcangeli e tutti I Santi.
you just heard the most gifted angelic voice ever created in this world. He had a God given gift that bought joy to so many people around the world. he truly was a gift from heaven
Fun fact: during the first lockdown a guy went viral by singing this from a rooftop but instead of the original lyrics he just cursed god through the whole tune. True story.
Actually i just saw a video of a 29 year old Pavarotto performing that same song. And he was as good as he was in the late stages of his career. Pavaratti was a gift for us. Nobody sang the Opera like he did. He owned this song. He was that song.
I just watched It a couple of days ago on an ondemand platform! Very nice docu! Anyway here on RUclips there are fun interviews of him. Both in english and Italian! He was so damn charming, nice and playful! 🤟🎵✨✌️💯👌
That’s part of who he was . Not only was he the greatest Tenor but the he became the character in who he was singing about. You can see in his face at the end of his performance he leaves the character behind and then becomes his self. Totally amazing. It broke my heart when he passed away of Pancreatic Cancer in 2007. He had returned to his home in Moderna Italy to spend what time he had left with his family. R.I.P you are badly missed
I love it when metalheads show their true appreciation for great music from wherever. You've got some great listening ahead of you. First, there's the same aria sung by Jonas Kaufman at the British proms another great performance to cherish. Then there's the Bell Song from Delibes "Lakme" (get the version by Lily Pons: untouchable) and of course the Flower Duet from the same opera sung by Frederika von Stade and Kathleen Battle if you can find it. Other than opera, in the pop realm try Lara Fabian singing "Je Suis Malade" with english subtitles her performance will leave you on the floor in tears. Have fun! Stay safe, stay sane.
We as americans need to familiarize ourselves with more universal music. I'm a classically educated pianist and opera and classical music are in my roots. But I'm 64 in a band, play rock and roll blues r&b, etc. I'm still learning rock from the 90s 2000s. But classical and jazz keep me centered, especially an artist like him Love to see everyone's first reactions to this genius
Sig. Mand è da notare che un grande cantante lirico articola per intero i termini in Italiano quando canta, senza cioè saltare sillabe delle parole come fanno ad esempio cantanti non italiani.Pavarotti pertanto è immenso quando si cimenta nel canto , è semplicemente " divino "
GRANDE LUCIANO. Non ci sono parole per descrivere la grandezza di LUCIANO,sono sicuro che il Mastro PUCCINI sarebbe stato molto fiero ad ascoltare le sue interpretazioni. Grandioso orgoglio della nostra ITALIA. Grazie.
I wanna say one thing: many singers can do this song (just search on youtube), but Pavarotti had a unique voice...a VERY beautiful voice. It was like a Les Paul, you know... Hey Ang, I'm happy for your song! It's good! Rock on! ^m^
I think is simply amazing see your reaction and appreciation for the Italian song, and make me so proud! LUCIANO and his voice is something for the humankind!
If anyone is interest this is the story of the song: "Nessun Dorma" is a song that is part of the opera "Turandot" by Giuseppe Adami and Renato Simoni. In the plot of this opera Turandot is a chinese princess known for being cruel, mercyless and coldhearted. The emperor order to her to get married and they came up with an agreement: every pretendent to the hand of the princess, obviusly with royal blood, have to solve three difficult enigmas created by the princess herself. The pretendent that fail will be beheaded. Calaf, a young prince of Persia, try to win the hand of the princess. He solve all the riddle, but the princess is not satisfied. So Calaf offer another try: the princess have to discover his name before the sunrise. If she is successful he wil die, if not they get merried. Turandot gives order to all the population to not sleep that night and to find Calaf's name. In case of failure the population will die. So in the night Calaf sings: "Ignote prince (Calaf): No one sleep! No one sleep! You too my princess in your cold roomm, looks at the stars that tremble in love and hope... But my mistery is closed inside me, no one will know my name! No, no, on your mouth i will say that (his name) when the light will shine! And my kiss will melt the silence that bring you mine Choir: No one will know his name... And ahimé (i don't know how to translate this, literally is "ouch me", it means that you are desperate), we will all have to die, die! Ignote prince: Vanish, night! Set, stars! (both imperatives) Set, stars! At the sunrise I will win! I will win! I will win!"
Great to see you enjoy this performance. You are 100% right: the best tenor ever! (to my taste at least), a cathedral of gorgeous singing. An anecdote about him: when he started his studies in singing, he used to live in a 16 apartments block, and he said to a reporter, one time: 14 other tenants were shouting "shut up!!!", the 15th one being out to the market. So yes a lot of practice. His technique is flawless: no effort whatsoever, at least in the vocal cords, and jaws, etc. He is my number one choice.
Big Luciano ❤️ Many of his feauturing are memorable, to name a few: with James Brown (two sacred monsters!), Bryan Adams, Celine Dion, Lucio Dalla (Caruso, magnificent !!!), Zucchero. Please react Tazenda-Bertoli. Thanks 🙏
Pavarotti was an italian tenor, “Nessun dorma” is a romance of the lyric opera Turandot, Giacomo Puccini 1924. Tartar Prince Calaf, is waiting the Sun to rise, and finally conquer the love of the Princess of the ICE, Turandot. Pure Art. I love your music ❤
This is the moment when his characther sings during the night before the contest. He's in danger of losing his life. But he is sure he's going to win, against all chances. It's a sort of declaration:"I'm going to win, no matter what!". It's THE courage. THE love.
First, this is a great aria by Giacomo Puccini from his opera Turandot. Second, that's the great conductor, Zubin Mehta. Third, Pavarotti is one of the greatest operatic tenors ever (there are others but most of them were dead by this point....). An okay singer, or okay conductor can make, or break a performance. This is the best of the best so, you chose well! Next, please try: American soprano Leontyne Price singing Summertime (from George Gershwin's Porgy & Bess).
It is heartbreaking to listen to the interpretations of Niente Dorma by maestro Luciano Pavarotti. A very powerful voice, but at the same time enveloping. Other tenors don't have his vocal strength or his sweetness. When we Italians listen to "Nessun Dorma" we immediately recognize whether we are listening to Pavarotti or other singers. This composition is so beautiful that I have loved it since I was a child, just as I loved the "Pavarotti and friends" concerts. I listen to "Nessun dorma" even in the only symphonic version with the cello. For us, Pavarotti's death was the fall of a living legend, it was a state funeral followed on TV with the participation of all of us and unparalleled emotion.
I am happy that Count Metal, 27 years after Pavarotti performed his world famous area singing "Nessum Dorma" from the MET, enjoyed this master piece of classic music.
Your videos are the best and they're goin better and better, as an italian woman I really love that you're so interested in our music. Hope you the best!!!
I watched this on PBS when they broadcast this for the first time in 1994. I was 16 years old and had never heard a lick of opera in my life. I remember tears rolling down my face when I heard this man sing this. Absolute perfection. His voice can only come from God himself. Still brings chills and tears to my eyes every single time I hear it.
A person with your cultural curiosity cannot fail to come to Italy🤩 I recommend, in addition to the Vasco concert, to go and see an opera. And considering that you like Puccini, I inform you that in September 2022 in Venice they are giving the Madama Butterfly by the same author😁
And that's not even his best recording of this piece 😅 You should hear him singing nessun dorma back in the days, when he was around thirty years old. I don't know where he found all the breath necessary to hold those last two notes but it really feels like half an eternity.
The song is about a man determined to win the heart of the woman he loved. He was sure in his objective and the end the lyrics are: Set stars! Set stars! In dawn, I will win. I will win! I will win!
The two microphones that you see are not playback phones they are stereo recording phones. He is singing in front of a full orchestra with a full choir UNAMPLIFIED.
Try bizet's The Pearl fishers opera and the duet with Matthew polenzani and Dmitry hvorovstovsky French duet with 2 male artists. It's about brotherhood.
Pavarotti is once in a lifetime. Another unbelievable singer - Dimash Kudaibergen - a guy with an 6 octave range and trained since the age of 5 years old. Please react to Dimash singing " Ogni Pietra" the fancam version or from his own channel at the Arnau Concert. It's mind blowing. All the best from Germany 🇩🇪 and stay safe ☀️ Petra
PAVAROTTI He dictated with many great artists of world music in Pavarotti and friends concerts all donated to charity. He was a great man. My favorite performances are Pavarotti ft James Brown with it's a man's world and Bryan Adams Great Bryan sung in Italian (precisely in Neapolitan dialect) He was very good🥰 I would like you to see them.
Without understanding the Italian, to me it feels like life had unfairly handed him a monumental tragedy, but with all the bravery he could muster, arose victorious in the end and conquered whatever it was. Close? Maybe?
Don't sleep!Don't sleep! You too, oh Princess In your cold room Look at the stars that tremble with love And of hope But my mystery is closed in me No one will know my name No, no, I'll say it on your mouth When the light shines And my kiss will break the silence That makes you mine Vanish, oh night! Set, stars! Set, stars! I'll win at dawn I will win I will win
Sorry guys, had to slightly put performance video off screen due to the video being blocked the first time I uploaded it 🥲
If this is enough for not occour in Copyright restrictions I think is the smarter way. U dont blur, you dont stop every 10", 1/3 less of dysplay we can survive ;)
It's a smart method. 👍

IL NOSTRO GRANDE lUCIANO... PERSONA GRANDE ANCHE NELL'ANIMA! HA RESO LA MUSICALIRICA UNA MAGIA PER TUTTI! UN ABBRACCIO LUCIANO
"Nessun dorma" is an aria from the final act of Giacomo Puccini's opera Turandot.
Somebody calls it "aria"! FInally!
Sono felice che apprezzi l'arte musicale italiana
You said well... This is PURE CLASS!
that's why Italian music deserves to be know all around the world, now it's so underestimate a real shame!
Well,this is OPERA. Luciano was born for this and je became the number one in past century. His purity,perfect speeking,his singing rich in mid tones and power in hight tones,made him "THE MAESTRO"
perfect video to shows what is opera. Talent,hard daily practice and passion.
Ps: rewatch his face at the end.
I live in Pescia, a city in Tuscany a few kilometers from Lucca where, on December 22 1858, Giacomo Puccini was born there.
This below is a story from a friend of mine:
Puccini had been attending Pescia for over twenty years, since in the spring of 1895 he wrote to his sister Ramelde, whose husband Raffaello Franceschini was director of the Tax Office of Pescia, asking to help him find a house to compose his new opera in all calm. After various searches, the suitable accommodation is identified in the villa of Count Orsi Bertolini, now Anzilotti, on the hills of Uzzano, in the locality of Castellaccio. Surrounded by olive trees, cypresses and a large garden with a pool in the center, the Villa del Castellaccio proved to be the appropriate environment to inspire him to continue his work, since here he ended the 2nd and 3rd act of Bohème starting the fourth, then finished in November in Torre del Lago.
It is said that in the summer at night Puccini used to bathe in the villa's tub, covered only by a white sheet, and how the neighboring peasants seeing him in the moonlight became frightened by believing him to be a ghost.
Another singular episode occurred when the Mochi brothers invited him for a replica of his famous Bohème at the Pacini Theater. At the beginning of the second act, the tenor complained of a sudden drop in his voice, declaring it impossible to continue the work. Violent protests broke out in the stalls and above all in the gallery, so much so that, in an attempt to save what could be saved, the soprano who played Mimì declared herself willing to play both roles, female and male. So the work went to the end in an atmosphere of pure student spirit. After this, everyone turned to the royal box where Puccini was to see his reactions. Contrary to what everyone expected, Giacomo burst out laughing stating that he had never seen that melodrama transformed into a very funny comic opera. That evening ended at Cecco's, where the Mochi had invited him. Before leaving, Puccini said jokingly: "If you try to repeat one of my works in Pescia, I'll come with a hunting rifle and I'll shoot you all." This obviously did not happen and the friendship with the two brothers became even closer, in the memory of this funny incident.
Subsequently Puccini was also co-opted into the board of directors of the Civic Theater, today Pacini managed until 1895 by the Accademia degli Affilati. Thanks to his sister Ramelde Puccini, in his Pescia period he was introduced to the good Pescia society, he met the most influential local personalities and cultural environments, becoming honorary president of the Valdinievole Cycling Union and, having a passion for hunting. he also became honorary president of the newly formed Valdinievole Hunting Society.
In nearby Montecatini, Puccini was a frequent visitor to the thermal baths where he spent his days walking in the green city or listening to good music at the Tettuccio establishment in the company of Verdi, Leoncavallo and Mascagni and frequenting characters from the opera world such as the librettist Giovacchino Forzano, the conductor Arturo Toscanini and tenor Enrico Caruso, while in Monsummano he made friends with Ferdinando Martini.
In Pescia Puccini was also appreciated for his sporting skills, in fact being a bicycle enthusiast he was associated by his friends Anzilotti, Mochi, Lavoratti, Pacini, Bartolozzi and Palamidessi to the Pesciatino cycling club and in their company he embarked on some excursions in the surrounding area. He also participated in some races making himself honorable so much so that in an article published in "Eco della Valdinievole" on 29 June 1895 we read: "On Tuesday 25, the Valdinievole Cycling Union had the honor of hosting Giacomo Puccini, the lucky author of Manon Lescaut.

But be aware that as in the field of music, even in cycling he sows many on the road. Unfortunately, the other day I saw how he reduced his traveling companions. Respectfully speaking, they looked like many peppers ».
Puccini was also honorary president of the Pescia Hunters Section, founded on January 1, 1900, by Raffaello Lavoratti, municipal secretary of Pescia, who was its first president (he was responsible for one of the first drafts for a single law on the hunting of young Italian state), and being a passionate hunter he went with his small boat especially on Lake Massaciuccoli, where he had a villa and which was managed by the Marquis Ginori-Lisci, together with well-known personalities including the Pesciatini brothers Mario and Davide Bartolozzi, the brother-in-law Raffaello Franceschini and Giovanni Manfredi known as “Lappore”, due to his white eyelashes, managing to bring back as many as 50 coots in a single hunt, not disdaining small birds, woodcocks, hare and wild boar.
Puccini also loved to take trips to the villages of the Valdinievole with his mighty car, even in a caravan with other friends
who owned one like the Vivaldi-Mochi and the Magnani. Nice and with a strong sense of humor and like a good Tuscan, he was a lover of good food, he ate everything, not just the game he got from hunting.

This opera, turandot, like many others, can be seen at movie theatres across the country this wednesday through the metropolitan opera Broadcasts.
There is a documentary about his life done by Ron Howard. Not only is it wonderful, you'll find him as a young man there.

Pavarotti Is The Greatest Tenor Of All Times!!!
I wanna say one thing: many singers can do this song (just search on youtube), but Pavarotti had a unique voice...a VERY beautiful voice. It was like a Les Paul, you know...
Hey Ang, I'm happy for your song! It's good! Rock on! ^m^
TRUTH! There are many good singers but a singer like this comes once in a lifetime!
I think is simply amazing see your reaction and appreciation for the Italian song, and make me so proud! LUCIANO and his voice is something for the humankind!
Looking at it a year after you published... I'm still emotioned.... it was one of the favourite songs of my mom ❤
Dude you got it. One of the less people who don´t interrupt and cut of the flow of heart-power.
Very well -chapeau!
What I like in your reviews is the love you hold for music as Art, in any forms.
Opera is it’s highest expression
The thing is, folk who are born with pipes like this, so rare and booming, they enter your inner core and throw shit around. LOL. 😎🙌💥
La sua voce ha raggiunto l’apice negli anni ‘60/70… the best
Mad Ang
What can you say? Amazing!
Thanks for Maestro Pavarotti! GREAT performance GREAT Melody and GOOD React! ♥️
If anyone is interest this is the story of the song:
"Nessun Dorma" is a song that is part of the opera "Turandot" by Giuseppe Adami and Renato Simoni. In the plot of this opera Turandot is a chinese princess known for being cruel, mercyless and coldhearted. The emperor order to her to get married and they came up with an agreement: every pretendent to the hand of the princess, obviusly with royal blood, have to solve three difficult enigmas created by the princess herself. The pretendent that fail will be beheaded.
Calaf, a young prince of Persia, try to win the hand of the princess. He solve all the riddle, but the princess is not satisfied. So Calaf offer another try: the princess have to discover his name before the sunrise. If she is successful he wil die, if not they get merried.
Turandot gives order to all the population to not sleep that night and to find Calaf's name. In case of failure the population will die.
So in the night Calaf sings:
"Ignote prince (Calaf):
No one sleep! No one sleep! You too my princess
in your cold roomm,
looks at the stars
that tremble in love and hope...
But my mistery is closed inside me,
no one will know my name!
No, no, on your mouth i will say that (his name)
when the light will shine!
And my kiss will melt the silence
that bring you mine
Choir:
No one will know his name...
And ahimé (i don't know how to translate this, literally is "ouch me", it means that you are desperate), we will all have to die, die!
Ignote prince:
Vanish, night! Set, stars! (both imperatives)
Set, stars! At the sunrise I will win! I will win! I will win!"
Sorry I messed up a thing: it's "that makes you mine" not "that bring you mine"
Great to see you enjoy this performance. You are 100% right: the best tenor ever! (to my taste at least), a cathedral of gorgeous singing. An anecdote about him: when he started his studies in singing, he used to live in a 16 apartments block, and he said to a reporter, one time: 14 other tenants were shouting "shut up!!!", the 15th one being out to the market. So yes a lot of practice. His technique is flawless: no effort whatsoever, at least in the vocal cords, and jaws, etc. He is my number one choice.
Big Luciano ❤️ Many of his feauturing are memorable, to name a few: with James Brown (two sacred monsters!), Bryan Adams, Celine Dion, Lucio Dalla (Caruso, magnificent !!!), Zucchero. Please react Tazenda-Bertoli. Thanks 🙏
this is not music, this is the ascension to the Olimpo's Gods of one of the greatest artists ever
Pavarotti was an italian tenor, “Nessun dorma” is a romance of the lyric opera Turandot, Giacomo Puccini 1924. Tartar Prince Calaf, is waiting the Sun to rise, and finally conquer the love of the Princess of the ICE, Turandot. Pure Art. I love your music ❤
Pavarotti was the Greatest voice of our time.
Angelo you should listen to “PaVarotti- VESTI LA GIUBBA”!
And when you listen to this one (and you will), PLEASE pick the version with English captions.
You may not be familiar with Him or the genre of music but you picked up on many intricacies of his perfection and the beauty. Good job!
This is the moment when his characther sings during the night before the contest. He's in danger of losing his life. But he is sure he's going to win, against all chances. It's a sort of declaration:"I'm going to win, no matter what!". It's THE courage. THE love.
First, this is a great aria by Giacomo Puccini from his opera Turandot. Second, that's the great conductor, Zubin Mehta. Third, Pavarotti is one of the greatest operatic tenors ever (there are others but most of them were dead by this point....). An okay singer, or okay conductor can make, or break a performance. This is the best of the best so, you chose well! Next, please try: American soprano Leontyne Price singing Summertime (from George Gershwin's Porgy & Bess).
It is heartbreaking to listen to the interpretations of Niente Dorma by maestro Luciano Pavarotti. A very powerful voice, but at the same time enveloping. Other tenors don't have his vocal strength or his sweetness. When we Italians listen to "Nessun Dorma" we immediately recognize whether we are listening to Pavarotti or other singers.
This composition is so beautiful that I have loved it since I was a child, just as I loved the "Pavarotti and friends" concerts. I listen to "Nessun dorma" even in the only symphonic version with the cello.
For us, Pavarotti's death was the fall of a living legend, it was a state funeral followed on TV with the participation of all of us and unparalleled emotion.
Placido Domingo and Corelli - get it right!
I am happy that Count Metal, 27 years after Pavarotti performed his world famous area singing "Nessum Dorma" from the MET, enjoyed this master piece of classic music.
Giacomo Puccini and his incredible melodies ❤️
Your videos are the best and they're goin better and better, as an italian woman I really love that you're so interested in our music.
Hope you the best!!!
"This dude is one of a kind"
xD
Puccini/Pavarotti,meraviglioso.
You are correct not to pause Luciano. Welcome to the rabbit hole!!
This is not a song. Is a romance from the opera Turandot, music of Giacomo Puccini. The composer also of Tosca, Boheme, Madama Butterfly...
The GOAT of tenners.
The greatest of all time
I watched this on PBS when they broadcast this for the first time in 1994. I was 16 years old and had never heard a lick of opera in my life. I remember tears rolling down my face when I heard this man sing this. Absolute perfection. His voice can only come from God himself. Still brings chills and tears to my eyes every single time I hear it.
Proud of Italy!🇮🇹 Puccini&Pavarotti ❤
Great reaction! Check out his duet with James Brown, “It’s a Man’s World.”
A person with your cultural curiosity cannot fail to come to Italy🤩 I recommend, in addition to the Vasco concert, to go and see an opera. And considering that you like Puccini, I inform you that in September 2022 in Venice they are giving the Madama Butterfly by the same author😁
Me too……wow. Beautiful. Such control and power
You should watch some clip of a “Pavarotti and friends” live program he did here in Italy.
Brian May, Barry White, James Brown and others
Good morning! You are improving your Italian pronunciation. Good boy!
And that's not even his best recording of this piece 😅
You should hear him singing nessun dorma back in the days, when he was around thirty years old. I don't know where he found all the breath necessary to hold those last two notes but it really feels like half an eternity.
What can you say. It's like he lived a life preparing for this.
Goosebumps, dear Ang! Superb Pavarotti!!!!
Best voice ever …..
Thank you for this beautiful video ❤️
He was my great friend....godfather....met in ....she introduced him to me...
The song is about a man determined to win the heart of the woman he loved. He was sure in his objective and the end the lyrics are:
Set stars! Set stars!
In dawn, I will win.
I will win!
I will win!
Great video (after "nessun dorma". Your voice is great!
The two microphones that you see are not playback phones they are stereo recording phones. He is singing in front of a full orchestra with a full choir UNAMPLIFIED.
I personally think he was the most talented artist ever..the greatest too..rip
This is one aria from the classical opera Turandot . It is know to be Pavarotti's piece de resistance.
PUCCINI, con la sua potente musica ti trasporta.... Dove non sei mai stato . Grande Pavarotti 🌹🌹
Pavarotti and J.Brown is amazing !!!!!
Try bizet's The Pearl fishers opera and the duet with Matthew polenzani and Dmitry hvorovstovsky French duet with 2 male artists. It's about brotherhood.
Pavarotti is once in a lifetime. Another unbelievable singer - Dimash Kudaibergen - a guy with an 6 octave range and trained since the age of 5 years old. Please react to Dimash singing " Ogni Pietra" the fancam version or from his own channel at the Arnau Concert. It's mind blowing. All the best from Germany 🇩🇪 and stay safe ☀️ Petra
Ciao! Bello vedere che la nostra musica emoziona … a questo punto prova anche GIORGIA “Di sole di azzurro” 😊
Pavarotti..is formidable...
You listen very well - loved your review.
PAVAROTTI He dictated with many great artists of world music in Pavarotti and friends concerts all donated to charity. He was a great man. My favorite performances are Pavarotti ft James Brown with it's a man's world and Bryan Adams Great Bryan sung in Italian (precisely in Neapolitan dialect) He was very good🥰 I would like you to see them.
Simona Fanelli
Oui moi aussi j'aime Pavarotti and friend ♥️!
So glad you reacted to this performance, can't wait to see your reaction to O sole mio from the 3 tenors, that's just an amazing performance
I second that: "The 3 Tenors O Sole Mio 1994".
I'll be honest though, it's kind of weird seeing Pavarotti described as "this dude has an amazing voice" 😂
😂😂😂 this dude
Without understanding the Italian, to me it feels like life had unfairly handed him a monumental tragedy, but with all the bravery he could muster, arose victorious in the end and conquered whatever it was. Close? Maybe?
Pavarotti is a god who walks among us.
It always make me cry...
Hi. I subscide right now to your channel Greeting from Italy!
Don't sleep!Don't sleep!
You too, oh Princess
In your cold room
Look at the stars that tremble with love
And of hope
But my mystery is closed in me
No one will know my name
No, no, I'll say it on your mouth
When the light shines
And my kiss will break the silence
That makes you mine
Vanish, oh night!
Set, stars!
Set, stars!
I'll win at dawn
I will win
I will win
