Great reaction, thanks a lot! It's definitely one of the most beautiful and difficult arias in the whole Bel canto's repertoire, and also one of my favourite performances by Amira Willighagen. By the way, the famous Italian conductor Toscanini loved this piece of music so much that he named his first daughter Wally, after the heroine of Catalani's opera La Wally. This daughter became a countess by mariage, but Amira is clearly a princess by right of birth (and voice...). 😊
Excellent insightful reaction bro thank you! ! Amira just knocked this one out of the park. She is so incredibly versatile. This was the 10 year anniversary of Hollands Got Talent and Amira was the guest artist . She won it 10 years previously in 2013 so it was so fitting and special that she performed here. Two of the original judges of her winning the show were present. Very special occasion. Apparently the piece she sang here is exceptionally difficult to sing and not many opera singers tackle it for this reason. What an extraordinary performance by her. She brings such wonderful peace and blessing when she sings. There are no words. Good to see you being blessed and enthralled by this very special lady. God bless and all the very best to and your family for 2025.
React. Thanks for playing Amira. There is a longer version you would have enjoyed (the Full Segment), including the panel's comments and a biographical sketch. I think you also mentioned her dropping to a lower note (4:59?, portamento, with vibrato). For a higher note (E6) watch The Phantom of the Opera, Amira and Ruhan Du Toit, Amira's final note.
Amira loves challenges. Give her the most difficult piece of classical music, and within days Amira will sing it better than everyone who is breathing.
IS THERE STILL ANY DOUBT THAT AMIRA IS A SPECIAL GIFT FROM GOD ???????? THANK YOU GOD FOR OUR SINGING ANGEL AMIRA ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ - THANKS CHILL - 777 BOER BEN
I wonder if the word you were reaching for was 'satisfying '. The aria is from the opera La Wally by Catalani. It is another of Amira's favourites. It's about a young girl wanting to run away from home, for love. A very common theme. There is a short tv documentary showing Amira singing this at 12 years old while playing with her pet terrapins. She didn't know the words, but was hitting the notes perfectly. This show was a 10 year anniversary of Amira winning Holland's got talent. An All stars show, where winners returned to perform. There is a full length video of Amira's part. with subtitles, Amira talks to the judges and describes her experiences and life since HGT. I'll add it in the comment reply if you want to see it. Due to timings, this is a short aria. Amira sang the full-length version at the end of her 18th birthday concert - On my own. It's on cd and dvd, but not YT.
Hello Tiger . Yes , you reacted this song before , but was your first reaction to Amira , in one video of Top talent that included the three auditions of HGT 2013 and this video . Like was the first reaction you liked it , but didnt it impress yoj that much . Now , you see it with other perspective . If Amira is only 20 years old and the greatest divas of the Opera was top at 40 or 50 years old .¿ What do you think ? ¿ Will be Amira the greatest soprano of the history ?
Amira is just the best Just Amazing!
Fantástica Amira ❤
