You clearly did one of the most genuine and sincere reactions I've ever seen about Amira. Indeed, everyone wonders how she was able to sing so well and to sound so mature, at such a young age. I presume the best answer would be, "she did not know it was impossible so she did it"... 😊
Great reaction! Subscribed. Amira was actually 9 years old in this video. She won Holland's Got Talent without any formal training in classical singing. Amira has already recorded several albums, winning two diamond, two silver and two gold records. From the age of 9 until today, Amira donates half of all her net income to her charitable foundation to, among other things, build playgrounds in poor schools in South Africa. I suggest reacting to the video of her singing in English at the age of 13 “Amira Willighagen ~ Live in Concert ~ Amazing Grace”, with 32 million views. It is the most viewed video of Amazing Grace, sung by a female soloist, on TH-cam.
Amira is the rarest of rarest diamonds in this world for sure. She is simply spectacular and a beautiful precious heart as well. That she is God's gift to a hurting world in these last days there can be no doubt. Thank you for your very kind and sincere reaction to our angel and welcome to her world. Hope you do many more reactions to Amira.
Hey Vikki, thanks for the comment. I was blown away by Amira's performance. She has such an amazing voice. The fact that she could produce that massive, opera sound at such young age is astounding.
Great reaction. Amira is always Amazing. She is a gift for humanity. Not only talented, but humble and she raised a foundation to build play grounds in very poor zones IN Southafrica and other needs where she donates half of her incomes. Always worried and pleased to help through the gift of her voice.
The aria Amira sang age 19 was Ebben? Ne Andro Lontana. She does sing classic cropssover, musicals, hymns, etc. Fluent in three languages, she has sung in around 10.
Gehen sie auf die Reise mit Amira. Sie singt, seit sie neun Jahre alt ist.Alle lieder sind fantastisch.❤ Jetzt ist sie ein Profi und die beste Sopranistin in der heutigen Zeit. Ich freue mich auf ihre nächsten Kommentare!!!
Amira was a talented long distance runner already at the age of 9 years old which she was during Hollands Got Talent. Long distance running develops bigger volume lungs with gives great breath control. By the way Amira was self taught at 9 years old from watching TH-cam video's. She never had singing lessons.
Some more mainstream songs of Amira's enormous repertoire I can recommend besides her amazing opera arias and sacred songs.. are two from her teens that your subscribers would be familiar with... First.. on the big stage ..The Sound of Music medley Second.. her contribution to an online concert for veterans.. with just her father on piano... When You Wish Upon a Star... Both examples of her versatility while retaining that unmistakable richness of her voice..
She is quite outstanding. She does sing timeless classics, and also song which are inspiratiobal. She emanates a positive vibe. Its odd that the compiled video songs aren't in order. The last one, Ave Maria, was her semi'final offering, and should sit between the opening audition, and the talent show final, Nessun Dorma. It ought to finish with the astounding Ebben. Ne andro lontana, one of the most difficult arias to master. Great reaction video by the way. Look forward to more.
❤She won "Holland Got Talent" Self thought with Her Angelic Voice and you will see She is a Real One cuz Not even the Best Opera Voice, She Donated then half of the price for a Foundation she created at the age of 10 yrs, at this time she had done a lot of things for many others Foundations around the Word...... THANK YOU FOR REACT TO HER❤ It was a very Great Honest Reaction, I hope you keep doing it ❤ Have a good day ❤
The performance at the end "Ave Maria ", she was coming off a bad cold with chest infection. She is not only an absolutely God gifted singer,. She is also an absolutely incredible young woman in every respect. You might even be interested in what else she does when she isn't singing like an angel. You mentioned that at one point she looked like she was going into a trance. Where that really shows is when she sings songs of faith. It's as though she is no longer there but, standing in the presence of God, singing directly to Him.
"O Mio Babbino Caro" ("O my dear papa" comes from the Puccini opera "Gianni Schicchi" (written in 1918). It is nowadays something of a showpiece for operatic sopranos. You should see her performance of it from 2014, with Andre Rieu. "Nessun Dorma" ("None shall sleep") comes from the Puccini opera "Turandot"; it was written for a Tenor (Pavarotti was famous for singing it). Amirs sings it one octave above the written score. It was her final performance on Holland's Got Talent - and won her 50,000 Euro plus a trip for her whole family to Las Vegas. The "Ave Maria" she sang for the semi-finals (in Latin) is the version by Gounod, to music by Bach. The 2023 performance was "Ebben ne andro lontana" ("Well, I will go far away") from the opera "La Wally" by Catalani, written in 1892. If you want to follow Amira's progress, here are some suggestions - at age 13, the Flower Duet (with Corlea Botha) from the opera "Lakme" by Leo Delibes (sung in French); at age 14, "Gabriella's Song" from the Swedish film "As it is in Heaven"; at age 15, a medly from "The Sound of Music"; at 16, "La Vergine Degli Angeli" from the opera "La Forza del Destino" by Verdi. At 19, "Pie Jesu (Faure).
When she sang Ebben Ne Andro Lontana the full video included comments from the panel and a biographical sketch (see the Full Segment). From the opera La Wally, by Alfredo Cataloni. Worth a look.

Best voice on the planet. Never get tired of Amira. Great example of how to behave as well.

Not only is she great singer, but is a great person. She gives half of what she earns singing to the children in South Africa to help them.
Amira on a nother level

She is the best to me.
