Great! This must have been the best day of Katherine's life. Here Amira sings at a Christmas concert in her hometown in South Africa in December 2022. She sings the hymn Panis Angelicus, composed by Cesar Franck 150 years ago (Mass, op. 12). Amira, of course, prefers to sing in Bb Major with an A4 - G5 range, especially for top sopranos. Amira recorded this hymn at the age of 11 on her second CD for Sony, also in the soprano key. Already at the age of 10, Amira went to Vatican City to receive the award for best religious music singer of the year at the Pontifical University. So, yeah, you can't top that.
It's a beautiful duet between them. Katherine has a beautiful voice, and they were perfect together in this.. a very gentle and peace inducing rendition!
The other young singer is Katherine Hamman. It was her mother who took the video. Apparently, Katherine was delighted to be able to sing with Amira, and she held her own quite well. I did post a request for Panis Angelicus, about six or seven months ago. The one I had in mind had Amira singing with Marjolein Acke and her young brother Elwout. The performance was from the five year anniversary of Amira's foundation, in 2019 and is quite delightful. I'm hoping it's still on your request list somewhere. Marjolein took part in Belgium's got talent as a youngster and now has her own singing career, so she's no slouch either. Nice to see you again, there was a bit of a pause through Christmas, I was beginning to get worried.
Amira then made her Christmas visit to her father in the Netherlands, where she sang Gesu Bambino, having turned into her father's church, where he was engaged in organ practice.

I always love Amira
Me too.
Anytime Amira is part of the performance it is great.

Thank you for Katherine's surname. I added it to the title.
