Speechless at such beauty.
Fantástico! Davóne tem uma voz linda e um equilíbrio interpretativo único!
A true inspiration for young singers.Every performance I have seen him in so far was a real revelation because of the level of his dedication to the matter,not to mention his singing and acting talent. It's comforting to know the world has such people!😊
Nice to hear you! I’ve also loved the Ives forever. It stands up very well to its German cousins.
Amen to that.
I love her singing so much but all the contemporary material is so somber and depressing sounding. I've listened to several of the recordings she's made, every time it's contemporary or outside the standard lyric mezzo baroque and classical rep, it's somber.
I like the experimental spirit... Looking forward to the final product. Would like to hear more Bach
Davone sounds very similar to gospel singer Wintley Phipps🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I heard Joshua in Santa Fe in 2006 and have remembered what a beautiful, focused tone his voice had. The voice is still beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful. It touched my soul. Thank you!!
Will you marry me
So pleasant person with nice voice. New Fiorenza Cossotto!
Wonderful!
She is so especial, i love her...
And great insight
Que voz extraordinária tem o Davóne Tines. Maravilhosa interpretação!!!
So beautiful. It's one of the songs I want sung at my memorial...if the Lord tarries!
Ms Schultz is a natural storyteller 💮
Emily is fabulously talented ❣
Wow!
Extraordinary and heartbreaking 💜
At 3:56 there is an impressive high B flat!
A wonderful natural talent with a great heart
Yes give me Jesus Hallelujah 🙌
Wonderful, moving !!!
Wonderful!
The big voices assayed the gospel songs. I can't help but think this is among the very strongest devotional examples. Came with chills when I first heard Fernando Ortega sing it.
Why talk about another singer when we listen to an excellent one? It's hardly tricky!!!
@@pierre-henrivinay438 We might say, 'It's not rocket science'
Good heavens, Rodney Gilfry is a talented opera singer. No wonder I have a crush on him. Peter Walsh is an excellent pianist even though I bet that it took patience for him to play that 🎹well. In fact, I've seen an opera in elementary school, but I don't remember the title of it. Time flies when I'm finally employed at a commercial real estate company, LOL.
I heard you in Falstaff at the Santa Fe Opera. Your aria was ethereal. I hope you will record it and post to TH-cam. You are my new favorite soprano. Good luck in all you do.
Davone feels it
Quelle classe ! Wunderbar !!!
Very impressive! Shall we connect?
What a voice!!!!!!
excited for Vocal Arts and even more excited to see Flight in TWO WEEKS at DALLAS OPERA!
Always wonderful, could listen all day.
Great classical vocalization!
What an amazing rich voice!
1:09 - important point about becoming a countertenor. He probably started when he was about 16/17
An absolutely fantastic insight into an amazing voice! Thanks
Wonderful artist - beautiful voice!
Love this man
