You have a beautiful voice Cai and it is developing beautifully. Yet again though, the Piano is TOO overpowering. I don't like being negative, it is not your fault, but tone down the Piano. Take care 🙂
Your singing is amazing! Your gentle and clear voice remains unchanged from when you were a treble. Even more impressively,I feel more powerful in your voice now.
What beautiful thing to see you tall and confident. Your baritone is glorious. I applaud you, I applaud you! We all do. Thank you for sharing your glorious voice with us.
I actually feel bad being so critical. I’m assuming that the pianist may be a vocal coach who doesn’t possess the skill required for accompaniment. It’s very difficult to play softly, especially on an overly bright piano. The pianist is probably doing as well as he can, but perhaps they should ask someone at a local university or music school to accompany instead.
The pianist is first-class. Unsuccessful sound recording. I don't know how the sound recording was done, but recording with a properly positioned phone sounds better. 😀
This voice has improved so much since age 15. Take it slowly though allow it to develop at its own pace. Look forward to hearing it continue to develop.
You were just what I was looking for! Your voice matches mine perfectly, and I'm taking this peice to contest and I strive to train my voice like yours has been.
Nice phrasing Can't wait to hear him in a few years Ditch that hyper bright awful bangy piano that covers his voice A nice warm dark piano wouldv accompany rather than dominate
Per la gloria d'adorarvi voglio amarvi, o luci care. Amando penerò, ma sempre v'amerò, sì, sì, nel mio penare, penerò, v'amerò, luci care. Senza speme di diletto vano affetto è sospirare, ma i vostri dolci rai chi vagheggiar può mai e non, e non v'amare? penerò, v'amerò, luci care!
Singing with a body in adolescent transition is no small task. It sounds like your voice may come with you, in spite of the limited audio capabilities of the recent recordings. Stay focused on breathing (new ribcage and diaphragm) and sustained notes (volume of breath dependent on ribcage and diaphragm). With that new body a voice will settle in. I ended up a bass-baritone and am still singing. I understand that you don't know where you might land. The point is to keep on singing.
I stumbled on this wonderful performance by accident, while I was looking for something else, as one does on RUclips. It is only the second performance of this piece that I have ever heard, the first being Pavarotti's forty years ago on a local classical music station here in New York. I just found Pavarotti's performance (or something very like it) at ruclips.net/video/YtjzMsHuk6U/видео.html It is, of course, invidious to compare the two: Pavarotti was on a concert stage and Cai was in more austere surroundings, Pavarotti was in mid-career and Cai is at an early stage, etc. But the reason for the comparison is to look at the accompanists. Pavarotti's was discreet, and stayed in the background while the singer evoked the dual emotions of suffering and love that the words call for. Cai was, as always, textured and nuanced, and you can see it in his facial expressions, but the sound was trampled on by the relentlessly loud and mechanical hammering of the pianist. So, Cai, I would love to see this done again, but with an upgraded pianist. And, selfishly, I hope you apply to Juilliard before too long!
I've discovered an even more unfair comparison. I recently found Gigli's 1947 performance at ruclips.net/video/iMkZdy_oByg/видео.html Compared to Pavarotti's interpretation, Gigli's is lilting and optimistic, and it evokes much less of the suffering and much more of the joy in the text.
what a great thing a new video, the musical skill is always the same, the quality of the video is always the same! how wonderful, congratulations all deserved
Bravissimo Cai! 👏 A "classic" piece performed with musicality and clear italian diction. A young baritone voice and musical skills that will give you so much satisfaction!! 😎
The voice is in excellent condition and the upper range is sounding more secure now. Don't forget that a little facial expression is always a useful tool, especially as a singer is also a storyteller. The piano is recorded too loud, though, as has already been said in another comment. Keep up the good work!
The accompanist would do well to lighten his touch and remember that he's there to accompany, not drown out the soloist. But superb vocal control from this gifted young soloist.
Prise de son catastrophique en ce sens qu'en temps normal, c'est le chanteur qui prime à l'audition et l'accompagnateur se fait discret dans les parties chantées. Là, le son d'un mauvais piano (et d'un mauvais pianiste) couvre complètement une voix qui vient d'on ne sait où.
мастерство не пропьешь, как умело сдерживается голос, прекрасное чувство , 5555555 гармонииyou can't drink the skill, how skillfully the voice is restrained, a wonderful feeling, 5555555 harmony
И насколько интереснее стал голос за год (посмотрела видео, где ему 15 лет, там голос более плоский что ли). Красивый баритон, такой бархатный, ласкающий слух.
Cai!!! 😍We've been waiting for a long time :). Your voice - a baritone with a beautiful velvety color - has already been formed. You want it to reach its full mature depth and you take your time so as not to force it. But there is already enough time (more than half a year) to reveal yourself to us.... unless your excessive aspirations do not allow you to do so now... because you prefer a more refined audience.... It would be unfortunate if you he withdrew altogether, gave up for some reason, having such a unique voice 💯👍👏🎶🎤❤☀😃🐯🐬..... Piotr from Warsaw
Rob, you’re not the focus here so please don’t show off your eloquent piano playing, it’s not about you! Being respectful to Cai by quietly accompanying him would be much better
It is amazing and gratifying to see how the adorable boy treble has turned into an equally incredibly talented and handsome young man baritone.
Absolutely!!! Gorgeous young man, fabulous voices.
Great!, but next time, move the mike away from the piano and closer to Cai.
Anybody else find the accompaniment too loud?
Not only too loud.
Dude has extreme model and singer potential.
Pity the piano comes out to loud.
Quelle magnifique voix de bariton, continue bravo 👏
❤ Beautifully sung! What a beautiful dark voice you have. Those high notes give me wonderful shivers
You have a beautiful voice Cai and it is developing beautifully. Yet again though, the Piano is TOO overpowering. I don't like being negative, it is not your fault, but tone down the Piano. Take care 🙂
Totally agree. It could be something as simple as standing closer to him and farther from the piano while recording.
Wonderful Cai.
How his voice deepened: from tenor went to baritone and continues to be wonderful!
Well done Cai, you are developing very nicely.
Still a great singer with all the talent needed ! Thank you Cai. Still listenning to your previous RUclipss as as you were a treble.
You sing with skill, control and a richness of tone. Congratulations and best wishes.
Glorious!
Beautiful voice, and beautiful music too..
Thanks for sharing, Cai, it's always a joy to hear from you, it would have been even better if the mic was just a tad closer to you. 👏👏👏
Your singing is amazing! Your gentle and clear voice remains unchanged from when you were a treble.
Even more impressively,I feel more powerful in your voice now.
Mike, please?
What beautiful thing to see you tall and confident. Your baritone is glorious. I applaud you, I applaud you! We all do. Thank you for sharing your glorious voice with us.
Beautiful voice〜😘💕
It is beautiful, Kay!
Beautiful the piano comes out to loud 😊👌👍🏼🎶
Toujours une aussi belle voix Merci continues
You sound fine, but the piano is too loud and ugly again.
Lack of feeling of the pianist!
I actually feel bad being so critical. I’m assuming that the pianist may be a vocal coach who doesn’t possess the skill required for accompaniment. It’s very difficult to play softly, especially on an overly bright piano. The pianist is probably doing as well as he can, but perhaps they should ask someone at a local university or music school to accompany instead.
The pianist is first-class.
Unsuccessful sound recording. I don't know how the sound recording was done, but recording with a properly positioned phone sounds better. 😀
You’re right. If the microphone were about 400 meters away from the piano, the balance would be much better. Certainly it’s not the pianist’s fault.
@@larrysstudents145 400 meters??
It's probably already in the next building. 😂
This voice has improved so much since age 15. Take it slowly though allow it to develop at its own pace. Look forward to hearing it continue to develop.
You were just what I was looking for! Your voice matches mine perfectly, and I'm taking this peice to contest and I strive to train my voice like yours has been.
The music drowns and dominates Cai's beautiful voice! I don't want to hear the piano, I want to hear Cai!!!!
Beautiful ❤️. We keep cheering you from far away. Greetings from Poland
You have a euphonious voice cai! 💕🙏
Really great!
Щиро бажаю успіхів у співочі кар'єрі юнакові!
Dark, smooth, very beautiful. Thank you. (The accompaniment is too loud and expressionless.)
This has often been criticized, but these recording guys refuse to learn. It' s always the same; they destroy the beautiful voice of the singer.
@@bgunternNothing destroys his voice - he just really needs his own mic and/or some isolation/mixing.
astounding as always, such delicately mastered tone and breath work!! what a joy :)
Nice phrasing Can't wait to hear him in a few years Ditch that hyper bright awful bangy piano that covers his voice A nice warm dark piano wouldv accompany rather than dominate
Wonderful well done.
Your voice is developing very nicely, Cai. Waiting for a new studio performance.
Bononcini’s Per la Gloria d’Adorarvi is not easily mastered but Cai shows us how to bring it to life!!! BRAVO! Wedi'i berfformio'n hyfryd, hogyn.🤓
Nice grace notes and trills. You’re finding your way nicely as you discover your new voice. Good luck, lad.
Beautiful, incredible, and soothing. Love his voice ❤❤
大人の声になっても素晴らしいです！ 才能豊かです。
Bravo Cai! Thank you for sharing your God-given talent with the world. We need it!
Per la gloria d'adorarvi
voglio amarvi,
o luci care.
Amando penerò,
ma sempre v'amerò,
sì, sì, nel mio penare,
penerò,
v'amerò,
luci care.
Senza speme di diletto
vano affetto
è sospirare,
ma i vostri dolci rai
chi vagheggiar può mai
e non, e non v'amare?
penerò,
v'amerò,
luci care!
Too bad the piano is so loud. Great singing though!

AAAAAAGĢGĢHHHHHHHHHHH OH MY GOODNESS. YOUR NOW 16!!!!!!! WOW.
Cool voice
Tu voz es muy limpia y relajante ^u^ es muy agradable de escuchar.
Bravo indeed. Greetings from New England USA.
...25 years ago my first performance with this aria, but as contratenore 🙂
Music. It’s for the Music isn’t it? Always has been. That relationship that you have with it: nothing has changed.

Compared to Pavarotti's interpretation, Gigli's is lilting and optimistic, and it evokes much less of the suffering and much more of the joy in the text.
I have the Pavarotti version, but is with an orchestra, which renders the aria more beautiful, more like Baroque.
@@marcellogenesi6390 BTW, I have recently discovered the Gigli version, which I like even better.
what a great thing a new video, the musical skill is always the same, the quality of the video is always the same! how wonderful, congratulations all deserved
What a beautiful person 💛. What a beautiful singing voice 💕.
Belle voix, technique parfaite et chanson splendide ! Dommage que le micro soit plus près du piano que de ce magnifique chanteur 🤭
Bravo Cai Thomas 👍🏻
Bravissimo Cai! 👏 A "classic" piece performed with musicality and clear italian diction. A young baritone voice and musical skills that will give you so much satisfaction!! 😎
Your voice is absolutely beautiful and stands on its own tbh. I’m only commenting so that this video is shown to more people. ❤
あなたの動画に出会えたことに感謝します❤︎
同じ曲を今練習しています‼︎私も頑張ります‼︎
Put the piano lid DOWN!!
Cais Knabensopran hat sich zu einen schönen Bariton entwickelt. Aus Kindern werden eben auch einmal junge Erwachsene! Rolf
They need better mikes for him!
Great singing 😊🙌🏽

Cai you have a lovely voice ❤
He's singing the words but not feeling the words. And luci care are two words, so there is a space in between.
The piano ruins it!
Linda voz. Mas o volume do piano está um pouco alto e interferindo na voz
What a beautiful voice and what a handsome young man!
Why you say young man? I am 17 years old and i feel i am old 😂
Cai's voice is wonderful, but seriously: what's with the too loud piano? Don't you check the sound levels before you record?
Agreed, piano is not the star!
The accompanist would do well to lighten his touch and remember that he's there to accompany, not drown out the soloist. But superb vocal control from this gifted young soloist.
This is a school production not Colombia Studios or The Record Factory.
карьера мальчиков вокалистов - очень не долгая ....

and gorgeous voice as well

Masterfully done, Cai! Bravo, Sir!👏👏
❤️❤️❤️👍
From Belgium... Gorgious young man with an amazing voice... Keep it up. This is talent!!
Too much piano, not enough Cai...
I've never heard this song - beautiful! And beautifully sung.
Amazing so much talent, has a great future 😇
Very nice transition in his voice from treble to baritone. Accompanist having a little concert of his own. Hope the young man keeps his singing up!
still very good.....from Australia
so beautiful,thanks.
what an absolutely beautiful voice!
Beautiful and technically perfect.
Beautiful voice! Loved it.
Schöne Grüße aus Dresden 🤓
Again piano blasts past beautiful Cai’s voice.
They refuse to learn! Awful recording!
Could well be mic placement, not piano per se.
Really think Cai needs his own mic set up for things to balance out.

Nice voice but didn't blow me away. It's a song of undying love so where is the emotion?The passion?
Well done Cai!
I wanted to he him sing, but the pianist overwhelmed him.
