🇨🇦 Lara is a fully trained lyric soprano who writes, produces, arranges and sings most of her own performances ! She is a pure Master Class every time ! 🇨🇦
And fluent in Italian, French, English and Spanish, she speak pretty good in Russian and Portuguese too and can also hold simple conversations in Dutch (Flemish) and accessory a proud quebecers of adoption 💪🏻
Adagio is an italian word, that means "Slowly". This is also used in music to define the pace of a music (a bit slow, between lento and andante) and also as a name of a piece of a sonata, concerto or symphony that is using that specific pace. The music from this song of Lara Fabian is a pop translation of an italian classic piece called "Albinoni's Adagio". It was written in 1958 by Remo Giazotto who was an admirer of Albinoni, a musician from the 17th/18th century. He claimed it was from him and gave his music this name but there is consensus today that he most probably has composed it himself. The classic music piece is globally famous and there were many different translations into different songs, with different music compositions, mostly operatic, and different lyrics (the band Renaissance, Daniele Licari, Sarah Brightman and Sissel Kyrkjebo for instance). But the most famous version, by far, is Lara’s version: it was translated into a pop song for her, she wrote lyrics in italian then co-wrote the english lyrics for it and is the original performer of these 2 versions. She kept the title Adagio and wrote a story with a double meaning: a woman that is awaiting to find her love / an artist that is awaiting the god of inspiration. This song has become a classic and has been covered by many : Shirley Bassey (!!), Dimash (Lara is his absolute idol and he covered several of her songs), Floor Jansen, Polina Gagarina, Dmitri Hvorostovsky, Julie Anne San Jose, Charice Penpengco, Giulia Falcone, Laura Bretan, Il Divo, Rimar, Vitas, Anastasia Luna, Evgenia Fanfara, , … They made great covers but none of these match the amazing storytelling performance of Lara, or her ability to use vocal subtleties to be in sync with the music, exposed in her live from the concert From Lara with Love. th-cam.com/video/bqoS-KOLV_4/w-d-xo.html Her italian version is also amazing. A famous italian version: th-cam.com/video/qf7xcMN-TYI/w-d-xo.html Or you can check her recent excellent renditions: - in Zagreb, late april 2024 (italian) : th-cam.com/video/06WOD2AxTTM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=pXrU2vQ1Lrca2PTs - In London, Royal Albert Hall, with Hauser playing cello, on May 9th 2024 (english): th-cam.com/video/ikWpOJT4y9g/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WSoA4RXiw-TMmRNv
Lara Fabian a spellbindning artist. She steals your heart every time. Crazy good vocalskills. Masterclass performer and storyteller. My all time favorite female singer. Thank you for reacting to Lara. Cheers from a finn in Sweden .
Lara Fabian, she reigns supreme. She IS our Queen. With all said and done, take your Q from her. This song belongs to Lara, the original composer and performer. Even the great Dimash took his Q from her,especially in this particular song. Despite the heights she and Dimash have reached, they remain humble. There is no arrogance there. Thank you for your reaction.
🇨🇦 Watch for the comment(s) from Eric Sicard to learn more about the song and the singer ! He is our resident Lara expert and if you are lucky, he will also tell you about other songs (over 200) in her repertoire ! 🇨🇦
Adagio dates back as far 1685 as an instrumental piece played during Opera breaks. Lara was asked to write lyrics, she responded “Are you crazy? That is an Italian Masterpiece! Eventually, Lara was convinced she wrote Italian & English Lyrics for Adagio. You will find Dimash attempts to cover everything Lara sings. Our friend Gabriel Henrique has preformed with a Full Orchestra twice in Romania, once in Italy, at a NATO Summit in Washington D.C. that brought other singers from around NATO. Gabriel had a solo concert. Recording with version’s, not simply covers.
One technique which many TH-cam reactors overlook, even in otherwise excellent analyses, is a solo singer's use of microphone position. Lara is a textbook example of good microphone placement and close miking. As a treble soloist, as far back as the 1960s, our performance coach trained us in this.
First, I am technically a vocal coach now due to my current regular student (and others that have come and gone at this point) and am new to the game, but still a coach now so the title isn't a lie. Second, just because I say Je Suis Malade by Lara Fabian (as this example makes sense for the video I got a lot of comments on this under) that DOESN'T MEAN that's who wrote or composed it. It means that's the song and that's the singer performing it. I hope I don't have to clarify that too many times because it shouldn't be that hard to understand. If it helps I'll put Sung By (Insert Artist) instead but good grief if that's what it takes. Not trying to put anyone down, just shocked at how one word makes so many of you misunderstand what the whole title means (which is of no one's fault, if anyone more my fault than yours, again, trying to say it as respectfully as I possibly can). Third, I know you guys said to stop pausing it so that I can react and explain later. Not only did I not do that here, but that will never happen because as a coach you guys should know why I get amazed in a structured way involving individual time taken to explain each point instead of keeping track all the thoughts and stuffing them at the end of the video to make it longer than necessary with the everlasting risk of me forgetting a point I would've made more easily if I had just paused it. So, no: I will not wait until the end. I will make time for each point throughout the reaction every time.
Nice reaction and analysis For me this, Caruso and Je Suis Malade from this show are her peak performances If Je Suis Malade was a masterclass of performance and interpretation, Adagio is a masterlass of vocal skills And Caruso might just be a mix of both
...Her version? ....1998, this is the original!!! Adagio is an old classic music composition. Lara wrote the lyrics on that composition in English and in Italian . Lara sings, ferformes and records ADAGIO in those two languages. I prefer the Italian version, Italian is a more collored language.. The song ADAGIO with English and Italian lyrics is covered by many other artist all over the world and is used in many singin contests all over the world.
You need to go check out Nightwish for cool vocals and performance! Symphonic metal. Quite the experience. Could try Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013
an incredible video with an explosive lara fabian rarely broadcast in reaction "un ange est tombé" a must-see th-cam.com/video/JEVAglyeoeQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=A8gMDm7f4G0tU-33
An ordinary singer, there are a lot of them. Bloggers admire everything because they don't know anything about the art of singing. All for the sake of content
I can listen to her songs over and over again. 😊
Fantastic performer. Classy lady. It can't get any better.
Thank you for your reaction, shes amazing, and it's not her version, its her song she wrote the lyrics
Lara is The Queen of Resonance and vowel coordination. She is The Ring. The perfect singer.

The warmth in her voice is so beautiful😍
No one sings Adagio better than Lara❤️
Except Dimash
@ I disagree, I don’t like his singing. I’m more into Lara’s warm beautiful voice.
Fortunately I’m allowed to have my own opinion👍

@@t.a.k.palfrey3882 You're right I didn't notice that. Thank you for pointing that out. I'll keep that in mind for next time.
She's not singing her version she wrote the song . Dimash covered it. 🎉❤😊😊
She is singing HER version with HER lyrics. The music was written by Remo Giazotto in the late 1950s based on a 17th century piece.

Thx..Verry good analyse.. perfect lara song again ...
Love Lara ❤️
Love from Denmark ❤️
Lara the best the queen ❤❤❤
Nice reaction and analysis
For me this, Caruso and Je Suis Malade from this show are her peak performances
If Je Suis Malade was a masterclass of performance and interpretation, Adagio is a masterlass of vocal skills
And Caruso might just be a mix of both
It s the original, not a cover. Nice vocal anlysis MadMusician
Lara is a Godess 👸🏼
Fantastic commentary and insight. First time watching you.
Lara ❤
she is amazing
Lara has been writing and performing when dimash was in diapers. She is unparalleled. The best!
La reina Lara ❤❤❤❤
Great reaction and analysis, thanks!!
...Her version? ....1998, this is the original!!!
Adagio is an old classic music composition.
Lara wrote the lyrics on that composition in English and in Italian .
Lara sings, ferformes and records ADAGIO in those two languages.
I prefer the Italian version, Italian is a more collored language..
The song ADAGIO with English and Italian lyrics is covered by many other artist all over the world and is used in many singin contests all over the world.
❤❤❤
Waiting❤ and congrates on being officialy a vocal coach🎉
Dimash sang his version. Lara wrote the lyrics to this song, so hers is the original.
You need to go check out Nightwish for cool vocals and performance! Symphonic metal. Quite the experience. Could try Ghost Love Score live at Wacken 2013
Did you just question whether Lara has perfect pitch? lmao
A break from Lara?! 🥺😢😔
