So glad you checked this out! And yes! The conductor is absolutely essential! While yes, we have the sheet music telling us WHAT to play, the conductor tells us HOW to express what we're playing and helps every individual person play TOGETHER! We can all have different ideas of (tempo) speed, and loudness... The conductors keeps everyone together, playing in sync! 🙂
And that conductor is none other than the Maestro, Zubin Mehta.
Yes, the "all cohesively doing it together" that you observed in elementary school was brought about by the skill of the conductor.
Luciano was the best of the best!! ❤
The greatest opera tenor since Enrico Caruso.
Luciano was known as the "King of the High C". He passed away in 2007 at the age of 71. He was the greatest. I think he held that last note for 18 seconds.
Nessun Dorma isn’t even a high C, but I’ve heard his high C, and it is ENORMOUS… while I was training as an operatic tenor I aspired toward his tones and AT LEAST the high C… I walked at graduation with the power of Pavarotti and a range higher than Jose Carreras high Eb5 (there a little, if ANY tenor arias are composed at this range… F5 was my record that I could hold with stability for a few seconds before losing my breath)
I used to have a neighbor that was studying to be an opera singer and she would practice in the evenings and it was, by far, the loveliest neighbor noise I’ve ever had. Free concerts all the time! 😊
Lucky you!
It doesn't even matter that we can't understand the words.... it's just so beautiful
Music is a universal language, and that’s what makes it so powerfuk
One of the most beautiful melodies ever written.
Did you hear that crowd roar at the end? Sounded like he just scored the winning touchdown on the final play of the game!
The amazing thing about Opera, is even though, I cannot understand a word he is singing, I can feel, every note, every nuance, & every emotion 💖
Since you are so good with the 'meaning' of lyrics let me give you a little clue about what Nessun Dorma is about. It is from the Opera by Puccini 'Turandot'. It is set in centures ago China and it is about a princess who does NOT want to marry so she has set up a quiz and if the suitor - of which there are many since they'll become prince - can't answer three questions they are executed. So lots of dudes have died! Along comes the man that Luciano is singing the part of and he's gonna try cause he's desperate. And guess what, he gets all of the right answers so now she has to marry him, but she still doesn't want to so he gives her a test. Tell him his name by the next morning and she doesn't have to marry him. So she orders the people to find out his name or they'll die the next day.
He sings Nessum Dorma (meaning nobody sleeps!) and this song's lyrics are so beautiful
None shall sleep,
None shall sleep!
Even you, oh Princess,
In your cold room,
Watch the stars,
That tremble with love
And with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
My name no one shall know,
No... no...
On your mouth, I will tell it,
When the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve the silence that makes you mine!
(No one will know his name and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win!
I will win!
I will win!
Now that I gave you that how about reacting to this one? th-cam.com/video/C1ZL5AxmK_A/w-d-xo.html and I'll tell you it's story 😛
Thank you! I've wondered but not enough to look it up. Appreciate your efforts, internet stranger!
Thank you
I feel like he saw God on that last note. 😳🤯
♥♥♥
Luciano sang for his Father. He honestly believed His Father had a better voice than Him. True humility there. Thank you for your lovely reaction ❤❤
His performance in Paris in 1998 he holds the note forever! It is worth watching unreal!
Regarding the conductor: He's like a coach. He has taught the team/orchestra how to execute the notes and then he's reminding the team how to do it in coordination. An orchestra without a conductor is like a team with written instructions of the game (as in everybody hears their own version of the piece in their head and plays to that).
Also: a lovely reaction!
Yes, the musicians do watch the Conductor. He/she is in charge. They control the time, tempo and mood of the music. They're the coach of the team.
Very nice reaction, bro 👍 in my opinion Luciano was the greatest opera singer of all time. And he did many duets or things like that with musicians of popular music, like no other. Greetings from Austria, and God bless
FYI, the conductor does a vital job. The thing to remember is that symphony concert halls are designed to direct all the sound from the stage out to the audience. So this means that the musicians on stage can't really hear each other, depending where they're sitting. The conductor gives the visual cues that tells them when to speed up, slow down, play louder, play slower, when to come in on their various parts, etc. Yeah, sure, every musician knows every note of their parts by heart, but classical musicians basically do live performances as their main job, so no matter how many times they've played a piece together, they still have to adapt to each in the moment. Plus, each conductor brings in their own idea of what the piece should sound like, so there will always be differences from one show to another. That's what the conductor does. So in this case, the conductor was making sure the orchestra and chorus were following along with Pavarotti. That's why he kept watching him.
For example: Once upon a time, I went to a classical concert at Carnegie Hall in NYC. The featured artist was a pianist who was popular at the time, a guy named Ivo Pogorelich, I think. I can't remember who was conducting. It was similar to this except it was the orchestra and the piano, rather than a singer. And apparently, the pianist and the conductor had a difference of opinion about the proper tempo of one of the pieces they performed that night. The conductor, it seemed, wanted to go faster than the pianist did. In the middle of the piece there was a long section of the piano playing variations solo, and at the end of that, the orchestra was supposed to come back in with a lot of energy. So as that part is wrapping up, the conductor raises his arms to alert the orchestra that their cue is coming up - and they're all alert, instruments ready - and the conductor has his arms in the air, and he looks at the pianist, just like Zubin Mehta looked to Pavarotti. And the pianist looked up at the conductor, and started playing his notes slower ... and slower ... and slower. Staring right at the guy who has got everyone waiting, and going ... plink ........ plink ........................plink....... It was so petty and so funny. I can just imagine how much that conductor and everyone in that orchestra hated that pianist.
Anyway, that's the conductor's job.
Delightful watching you discover grand opera, through one of the 20th Century's greatest tenors, singing one of the most beloved arias of all time. Easy to see and especially hear why! (another vast rabbit hole to explore)
When he says "they are all in sync" that's because of the conductor.
Luciano was known as the”King of the High C’s”. And for good reason.
Maestro Supreme!! His voice is liquid gold. Another football world cup song, something about opera and football goes together lol. It's the drama. Classic 👍💜
I can't listen to Pavarotti without tearing up! And it's in Italian....He had such an incredibly powerful voice no one could touch it....I'm so happy you reacted to him..A legend. He was also very good friends with Princess Diana...
Every time i hear this song, man, the emotional power of the song chokes me up
"When they all do it together . . . ." THAT's what the conductor makes happen.
The conductor is the glue that holds the performance together. The score, the musict, the soloist and the choir. There is alot going on...the conductor is there to keep it all in sync.
Pavarotti was a phenomenal tenor. Pure God given talent
What you hear here is one of THE two tenors in the last 120 years and this recording is a masterpiece.
Apart from any featured solo guest artists, the conductor is vital and is the highest position in Orchestra. The second most important position is first chair violin. Classical music has such complexity to it and such constant changing of tempo and Dynamics and Arrangements of all those interest payments, it would be impossible to do without a conductor. And the conductor has to know a lot about all the instruments and has to be able to manage a score that might at any given time have 24 or even more simultaneous parts for the various instruments, and it is an extremely difficult thing to do. And at that level, those kind of conductors are known for bringing their particular style to the work.
Pavarotti, the greatest tenor of several centuries. We were blessed to have him..
Everyone in the world should hear this performance. "Vincero!" - "I will win!"
The conductor keeps the whole orchestra in time, amongst other things. Classical music speeds up, slows down, goes soft, quiet, strong and loud according to the emotions of the song etc - the dynamics and changes of tempo are way beyond what popular music normally uses. Imagine an orchestra of 75 or so, all with different parts, different instruments, unable to see each other, all slowing down precisely without someone to keep them together and guiding them? It would be a shambles.
I love that you are so open to so many types of music. So him in the 90s. cried the entire performane. he was so emotional in his vocals.
Yes, the conductor is very important. The conductor is setting the time for all the musicians to follow. Even in an ordinary-sized orchestra, the musicians on one side can not hear the musicians on the other side of the orchestra. They would get out of time with each other quickly without the conductor to set the time. That is what he is doing with the baton. He also uses the motion of the baton to give other instructions. In this case, the conductor has a third job. He is taking direction from Pavarotti. He is paying close attention to Pavarotti, following Pavarotti's pace and relaying it to the orchestra. He is keeping everyone together. This orchestra is so large that not everyone can see the conductor. There are two video screens overhead, allowing the musicians to watch the conductor on the screen. This performance is MAX EVERYTHING. The orchestra is the largest I have ever seen, and they are the best musicians in the world. The conductor is the very famous Zubin Meta, he is the best in the world. The choir is huge! I don't know which choir it is, but I'm sure they are the best in the world too. And of course, Pavarotti was the best in the world.
Pavarotti is the greatest singer ever, he’s unequalled and is the best there has ever been and probably ever will be !
He is the best. I discovered him when I was 18 and now am 65 and I'm still in love with him, RIP Luciano...the greatest. My other love is Dmitri Hvorostovky. Rip He died at age 51 from a brain tumor at the prime of career plus he was named People Magazine's hottest 50 men.
Goosebumps 😢
Timeless!
Worlds greatest tenor.
My 14 year old daughter and I saw him in Denver in 2001. He couldn’t reach the high notes as well as in this video. But he was still amazing and funny and warm. My daughter had a Luciano Pavarotti poster in her room! So much charisma and talent!
I don't remember it snowing when Pavarotti sang this but it was great to see/hear it again.
This old grumpy guy still get tears listening to this performance.
Shirt is needed..lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌸. Respect
enjoyed watching your reaction to the Greatest Master of son, of all time
I adore you loving the opera and Dimash. Beautiful music.
Pavarotti is the greatest tenor to EVER grace a stage. If you can listen to this and not get chills you have no soul. You don’t need to even understand Italian to feel what he’s saying. But just so you can know this is the English translation:
Nobody shall sleep!...
Nobody shall sleep!
Even you, oh Princess,
in your cold room,
watch the stars,
that tremble with love and with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
my name no one shall know...
No!...No!...
On your mouth, I will tell it when the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve the silence that makes you mine!...
(No one will know his name and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win! I will win! I will win!
Cosa dire? L'Ottava Bellezza del mondo, ti voglio bene Luciano, grazie ❤
Signore Luciano Pavarotti was one of the greatest tenors of his time.
Opera was invented, when there were no microphones and speakers. The vocalists had to learn how to project their voices, so the people in the last seats could hear them.
I love how interested you are. Keep on the good work. There is a lot of good music out there, including Angelina Jordan and many others.
I recommend to you the Danish National Orchestra, playing famous film music, like "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly"

Be safe and sound man.
Elmar from Germany
SO nice to see you commenting on a Pavarotti reaction as well, Elmar !! He was the greatest of all time IMO ♥♥♥♥♥
@@poolhallshark First of all, heya to Norway, Alan😁. I w also always interested in Operette (musicals) and the three tenors earned my respect by singing modern tunes. Signore Pavarotti even invited a lot of famous singers to his birthday (I think) Party "Pavarotti and Friends" including James Brown. So very nice to write to me.
As always, be safe and sound.😄❤❤❤❤❤
@@elmarwinkler6335 Nice🙂 There is a lot of beautiful music in the world, if you know where to look and what to look for😉. I also like his performances with Zucchero. Actually, Zucchero is another one of my favorite artists.
Have a great day, Elmar ❤️❤️❤️
@@poolhallshark OOOHHH I almost forgot him, shame on me, he is a splendid musician.
Your reactions are priceless. Thanks for highlighting this.
Luciano is the best
I always think there is hope for humanity when I listen to this..That humans can imagine it, write it, produce and sing something so beautiful it...we are all capable of great things
You’ve just received a taste of what heaven sounds like
El Maestro paved the way!
thx shon! when music goes thru our soul ! u know ti ! love ur reactions -
Yes, they really watch the conductor. That's what keeps them together.
Super cool that you chose to do this, Shon! KUDOS! Love from Norway ♥♥♥♥♥
Without the Conductor, the thing would never work 😂 trust me they get attention for their live - this conductors in the famous orchestras are masters like hell
Love from Austria/Europe 🇦🇹
I think he was staring out into heaven
The conductor directs the tempo, and other queues. The orchestra is so talented and practiced, that they know what to do, but he definitely serves a purpose.
I love Luciano Pavarotti!! If you haven't seen this, check it out. He was younger here and his voice is just phenomenal. The best Nessun dorma - Luciano Pavarotti - Turandot - Puccini
The opera is beautiful. Here are the lyrics:
None shall sleep,
None shall sleep!
Even you, oh Princess,
In your cold room,
Watch the stars,
That tremble with love
And with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
My name no one shall know,
No... no...
On your mouth, I will tell it,
When the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve
the silence that makes you mine!
(No one will know his name
and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win!
I will win!
I will win!
Luciano Pavarotti does the song justice. He admitted that an American Italian also inspired him as he listened to Maro Lanza. Sadly Mario passed away at a young age but he definitely sang quite well. Try listening to some of Mario Lanza also and you will see. Great reaction video.👍🏽👍🏽
Now you should listen to James Brown & Luciano Pavarotti singing "It's a Man's World "
Goosebumps; Every. Single. Time. He is the Ultimate. PLEASE from the Three Tenors concert, react to “O SOLE MIO” 🔥
King of the High "C"s!
God's voice on earth
He is beyond talent. He is Italy's El Maestro! You have to appreciate this genre of music, to appreciate the one and only El Maestro.
I saw him sing this live in london, he touches your sole. . Unforgettable
Your expression from 5:43 to 5:52 is as genuine as it can get.
The conductor is fundamental, he gives colors to the music. If they just read the notes on the sheets, then every execution would be the same.
The conductor uses that stick to keep time by waving it on the beats, so all the people playing instruments are both reading the music on their papers and watching the conductor for timing while playing. Also the conductor kindof tells you what volume you should be playing at by waving their hands around, its hard to explain
You just said "They are all in sync, the instrumentalists and the vocalist" That's the conductors job to keep them together. Without the conductor the 70+ musicians would have their own interpretation of how fast or slow or loud or soft to play and even worse when the music speeds up or slows down it the conductor that makes sure they speed up at the same tempo, or it would sound like a nightmare. Also there have been instances where people have lost where they are in the music, the conductor helps them come in on their cues etc. Now with a solosist performing like here, the conductor not only tells the orchestra where and when and how, but he now has to also take his cues from the soloist and follow him while he leads the orchestra. It's one of the toughest jobs ever! And you are listening to probably one of the top 5 Opera tenors of all time here. Granted at an older age, you should hear him sing this when he was younger, but still, a masterclass. And there's nothing more beautiful than Puccini's music when is comes to Opera.
He collaborated with Skin (the female vocalist of Skunk Anansie) once. Worth watching.
Au fost sint si cred ca vor mai fi mari tenori ai lumii dar nimeni ca marele Luciano ! Asa o voce frumoasa ,mangiitoare unica
Nu te vom uita niciodata maestru intre maestri ! ❤🥀💐
Pure Latin Passion
I love this. Who thought I’d watch a cute naked dude celebrating Luciano? Ilove it!!
I got to dance in a Metropolitan Opera production of this opera ( Turandot) so it’s very special to me.
Great job!
I loved the reaction, I must suggest if you ever get the chance to go to an opera, take the chance, and do a little research about the opera before hand so as to follow along, as amazing as this video is it is even more powerful in person.
My mother and my sister loved opera.. me.. not so much.. but this song. blows me away...end of story
Yes. They DEFINITELY pay attention to the conductor. Unless you are a classical musician used to playing or singing with an orchestra you may not notice it…but trust me, if you dont pay attention, the music goes all over.
For sure the conduktor is important, for Timing and so on!
You were just introduced to real superior music.Pavarotti was the best opera singer of all times.
Now you should watch Austin Brown and Rob Lundquist from the vocal band Home Free do this....its titled Two Country Singers Try to Sing Opera....they do more than try, they succeed!
There is a world of incredible music. Classic, Baroque, Jazz, Metal, Progressive, Rock, Funk, Fusion. It's all out there, it's not difficult to find, you just have to go looking. Every new discovery will enrich your life forever.
Atom Heart Mother - Pink Floyd, Heavy Weather - Weather Report, Don't turn me away - Roy Buchanan, Zampa - Ferdinand Hérold... these are great places to start looking.
Beautiful 😍 ❤
Yes, of course we are following the conductor. What’s on the page is only the start of everything an ensemble player has to do.
Basically, the orchestra, and every one of those master musicians in it, is like a single collective instrument, played by that director up front.
@ Shon...Have always wish I could hear Dimash sing this song. He wouldn't sound like this because his vibrato is slower than the typical operatic tenor. But we can only dream!!! 😁💞
The reason why the Orchestra is in Sync is because of the conductor.. Maybe one to listen to would be Judy Garland Battle Hymm of the Republic.. It's was sang by Judy a few days after John F Kennedy was killed so some significants.. Love you face when Pavarotti was doing his stuff... ❤
A good conductor can make a huge difference to how any orchestra sounds. Orchestras are huge and classical music very complex so it all has to be held together in tempo, volume etc. He "shapes" a piece or "paints" a picture!!
Remember, he's projecting like that with no microphone.
An orchestra definitely needs a conductor. I watched a program once where the conductor stopped and within seconds the whole thing started to collapse. He's not there just for the timing. It's like he's operating a huge mixing desk. With so many instruments and requirements, the musicians aren't always aware of where they are in it all.
The difference to an orchestra under the direction of one conductor versus another, even playing the same composition, can be really different.
An orchestra without a conductor is like a football or basketball team without a captain: It is not enough for everyone to doteir best, they also need to coordinate with eachother. It is the collective effort, not the single musician, that counts.
if you don't have goosebumps, you don't have a soul.
You need to see his duet with James Brown, perfection
It's hard to sing like this and look relaxed... His power is effortless. Vincero = Victory!
It is always a pleasure to see someone witness and appreciate greatness. Your inquisitive nature may sell the channel but your Beef cakeyness wont. Put a top on and get some Black Sabbath in your life. All the best young man.
Agreed. Don’t yell at your viewers in your intro (a smart host remembers the audience is three inches away from the screen and then whispers like a lover). And get dressed.
Agree with you both. I can tell you are an intelligent young man by your speech, especially your use in a general, unscripted comment of the term cohesive, many young people today have a more limited vocabulary. Focus on your intelligence and you will draw viewers. I could tell how much you appreciated this music which again sets you apart. Good luck to you.
❤️
He's like coping a roundhouse kick to the head, effortlessly too. His name pronounced Looch-i-ano or Lou-, chi-ano. Cheers. 👌
He was staring at the conductor
You must watch Luciano and James Brown singing It's a Man's World
A long time ago I saw “the sum of all fears” movie in the theater, it was about an inbound nuclear war between the US and Russia , a nuclear war that would wipe man off the earth and the main character finally discovers there’s a Nazi group setting things up to look like it’s Russia instigating. The end of the movie is this song plays as US CIA Operatives are assassinating EVERY Nazi that are now trying to flee to hiding. A montage of sniper shots. Car bombs , broken necks. This songs so powerful and in theater so loud , nuckear war us avoiddd and Nazis are getting destroyed to Nesu Dorma!
He was pretty good
Even in opera, the singer sings in sentences. Two words more and he reaches the end of the sentence, which would be a much more natural place to do your pauses.
Check out Aretha Franklin singing this. She filled in one night when he was sick.
