    Dan’s tears are very real. He shared this love of opera with his late father. Thank you for not being an opera snob. Dan is an amazing artist who sings many many genres. I feel immensely blessed I found him singing on TH-cam last Christmas.

    What I find so amazing about Dan aside from his incredible voice, is that he appeals to people who never liked metal or opera . He has been able to capture a wide range of people and introduce them to different genres that they never thought they would enjoy. Not many artists are able to which between genres with such ease.

    When you talk of his tension, it could be emotional as this was one of his late Italian father’s favorite Italian songs.

    Beautiful reaction. Thank you for your "criticism," which was nicely explained. Dan Vasc is absolutely phenomenal and has the most versatile, powerful, beautiful voice on the planet. I hope you'll react to more of the many genres he covers. I'm subbing and will be here for the next one!

  • @ericzeichert511

    You got him, Dan "unique take" Vasc. The rolled R's are natural to his Brazilian heritage, but he does have some experience with the classical world, I believe. He is a true crossover artist...not a metal singer, not a showman singing showtunes and definitely not a female singing female covers. He's not even a Disney prince, but he has covered all those and MUCH more. He has even turned himself into the entire choir in Handel's Messiah.

  • @sandycox2058
    @sandycox2058 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +57

    Thanks for your reaction. Dan was classically trained. He may not sing in the "traditional" way, but you can bet that it is exactly the way he has chosen to express himself. He can sing in many genres. Keep in mind that he lives in Brazil and speaks Brazilian Portuguese and also very good English. He creates his videos at home. So it may not be sung in the traditional style, but I have to say I find it my favorite of all the versions I have heard. JMHO

    I absolutely loved your reaction to Dan Vasc with the pros and cons.I have learned more about singing. You go into such great detail.. I watch and listen to him alot because he does so much with his voice. Thank you,
    He used to listen to opera with his dad, who is now deceased. Dan sings a variety of predominantly rock ‘n’ roll music. He is a performer and has learned how to use his facial expressions to develop his personal style of singing with many different effects. As a power, metal singer, he likes to make all songs his way. I caught a lot of that in your critique. He puts a lot of his passion into his music where in this song he looks like he’s ready to cry. So glad you enjoyed him because he is an excellent performer.His performances are simple but engaging. Absolutely fascinating!!!.

    I listened to Nessum Dorma sung by Pavarotti and , by Bocelli, beautifully executed by both. Then I listened to it sung by Dan Vasc. This blew me away! Dan sings this song with a voice richer, deeper and more powerful than either of the other two! Dan showed such emotion, such passion.Very well done and respect to Dan Vasc ! Thanks for your reaction. 😊

    @rebeccacurtis6680 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +39

    I loved your professional breakdown of Dan's performance of this beautiful aria. Back in the early 90s, I was fortunate enough to see Pavarotti in concert while living in Houston (absolutely phenomenal and worth every penny). When I recently heard Dan sing Nessun Dorma, I was blown away at how well he did it for someone who was not a professional opera singer. I did pick up on some of the same things you pointed out, but I also loved it so much, regardless. Dan has received classical training and even taught voice lessons at one time. Being Brazilian, his first language is actually Brazilian Portuguese, and he's learned English as a 2nd language. He's part Italian on his Dad's side and his Dad was an opera fan, especially Pavarotti and Bocelli. Dan is currently learning Italian, too. He's always learning & refining himself in every way possible. Some of the tension & raw emotion you saw may have been due to the fact that he did this only months after the death of his father from cancer and Dan did quite a few songs in honor of his father's memory. Dan also did "American Trilogy" by Elvis Presley as a tribute to his father just mere days after losing him because his father was a really big Elvis fan, as well. Dan does everything from Folk/Operatic styles to 80s Rock & Heavy Metal. He also converts regular songs to metal versions and he has a metal band called Fearless consisting of his younger brother and two close friends from church. He's collaborated with other TH-cam personalities on numerous works and also with professional artists like Fabio Lione (Rhapsody and Angra), Luis Mariutti (Angra and Shaman), John Schlitt and John Lawry of Petra, etc. He also did some backup work on one of Sir Christopher Lee's Metal albums just prior to his death. Lee was going to lend his voice to narration on Dan's band's album (Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom), but sadly passed away before that could be done.
    Some other songs you might enjoy would be Dan's duet with Rhen Stillnight perfoming the Bocelli and Brightman song "Time to Say Goodbye", his Phantom of the Opera covers, his version of "Gethsemane" from rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar, his Handel's Messiah Hallelujah Chorus (One Man Choir), and his phenomenal version of Amazing Grace which was what introduced many of us to him. Opera singer Peter Barber did a reaction to Dan's Amazing Grace, then discovered Dan's Witcher covers because he's a fan of the games & series just like Dan. Those covers are conversions of bards songs played with lute accompaniment into heavy metal infused versions that actually have more views than the originals. He is such a multifaceted, creative artist who's always good at surprising us.
    Thank you so much for lending your professional take on Dan's abilities with such kindness & appreciation for who he is.

    Very nice and professional analysis without detracting from the overall work of art. Dan is Brazilian and not a professional opera singer. His passion is metal, symphonic metal. He can handle any genre. His voice is unparalleled in every area. All cover songs are recommended, as are his own songs. Have fun browsing his channel. I'll be back for the next reaction. 🤘💪♥️

    Hey:) Thank you so much for your great and incredible reaction and analysis to this fantastic vocalist, Dan Vasc!!! I was very happy that you enjoyed Dan's beautiful performance. He always impresses me with his beautiful voice, his vocal range and the great and true delivery in his presentations!!! I think you'll enjoy seeing him perform Hallelujah, where he performs his own choir with 24 voices. Another great and magnificent performance was in Gethsemane, where he proves to be an excellent actor as well. Dan is brilliant at everything he sets out to do 👏🏻. I look forward to more reactions from Dan. Thanks again ;)

    Love, love, love our reaction! Helps me a lot to prove to myself that I'm right in my assessment of Dan Vasc's vocal performance. Thank you so much! You've said that "he approached it in a way that's authentically him " and Dan Vasc does this in all the covers he released on TH-cam. I never know what I get when he covers a new song, but I always know that it will be an epic and surprising rendition that sounds better than the original and that he once again goes all in.

  • @mamiemartinson4649
    @mamiemartinson4649 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Dan Vasc is from Brazil, so lots more rolling of the R's are common. He's the only heavy metal singer I can listen to and this was so powerful and moving. If you listen to his version of Amazing Grace he cycles through several styles of approach and it's respectful and then soulful at the end which is different than I've ever heard it done. But his approach makes sense from a point of telling the story of someone saved by grace and so deeply grateful and aware of one's flawed nature.

  • @tinanichols203

    Really enjoyed your analysis from an operatic standpoint. Dan has such an amazing range and can cover so many genres. This cover is not trying to impersonate Pavarotti or any other amazing operatic tenor. More opera with a little grit 😁. Love your enthusiasm in the reaction❤.

  • @KarySR47
    @KarySR47 14 วันที่ผ่านมา +8

    It's very interesting to hear a reaction to this cover from someone who knows about opera. I know nothing about singing or music, so I've always wondered how close Dan's singing here got to classical opera style. I also appreciate that you still understand that Dan is not an opera singer, and he was trying to do his own thing here.
    Now it would be nice to see you react to something where Dan is more in his element. Some of my favorites I can suggest are his covers of "Toss a Coin to your Witcher", "Burn Butcher Burn", "Bring me to Life", "Black Wind Fire and Steel", and his most recent "My Heart Will Go On" (mostly because hearing this song in metal style is pretty funny).

    Dan makes any song he performs his own. No way in any form is he an opera singer. I think he did this aria well not to shabby. He is a metal singer. He does have over 200 songs he's been at it long time. He range is low to very high. He is a very gifted and talented young man, how is always willing to learn . Enjoy Dans rabbit hole, which we all have loved. Thank you for being fair. I enjoy opera too.

    @donnawoytovich 13 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    I preface my comment by saying thank you. Your mastery of the art has given us an excellent review and view of what you and others classically trained see as pure and correct opera. That said, I believe the numbers of opera enthusiasts having the expectation of perfection and exactness you present to us are relatively few compared to millions of other music lovers preferences. I do appreciate your review of Dan’s interpretation of Nessun Dorma. However some like me due possibly to a lack of knowledge concerning opera may not fully understand your critique although extensive and for the most part objective. I’ll admit it was difficult seeing and hearing you laugh saying whatever it was you were laughing at was just bizarre. Maybe it was what you often said was choppy. I noticed you made compliments but other than the last minute or so they were sadly followed with a criticism. In music I understand what speaks to my heart and soul. Pavarotti, and his interpretation of this aria made it the standard, making it his own. However others have also beautifully made it their own and as you suspected this is what Dan Vasc has done. He made this aria superbly his own so much so that I now do have an appreciation for opera. Pavarotti’s rendering may be considered perfect by most but seems dry almost sterile and more about precision than the passion and emotion I so much prefer. Dan’s ‘rendition’ here and with many of his covers has given me goose bumps and brought me to tears which for me isn’t typical. Whether it be the grit the passion or Dan’s embodiment of the songs he covers, in my eyes he is incomparable. Aside from his voice he is a genuine, sincere, funny, witty, intelligent quality man of faith uniquely trained, talented, blessed and gifted. He is lovingly referred to as the Brazilian with a Million. These are just my thoughts and views, no one else’s. I’m not defending Dan. He doesn’t need it. His abilities, reputation, achievements and dedication are evident and stand on their own.
    Thank you again, Donna Woytovich

    Thank you for the in depth analysis of Dan's rendition of Nessun Dorma . He is from Brazil and his native tongue is Portuguese but he mostly sing in English but does some Christmas sone in Italian. You may enjoy his rendition of Music Of The Night or Gethsemane but you check some of his others works: Toss A Coin To Your Witcher and Burn Butcher Burn ( from the Witcher), I'll Make A Man Of You (Mulan), Amazing Grace, Bohemian Rapsody, Dawn Over A New World (Dragon Force), Handel Hallelujah (which he sings all the parts), his latest release is My Heart Will Go On (with a metal twist). He can sing any genre of song and a catalog of 240+ videos and just in May reached his goal of 1 million subscribers. There is so much to chose from. Dan puts is heart and soul in every song and brings a emotions balance and inspiration. Looking forward to you next reaction from Dan.

    I am appreciative of this reaction. I love whatever Dan does. Opera is generally not relatable to me. The reaction was done is such a pleasant way that I really learned a lot. The mood was good and it would be unlikely that someone would be offended by the criticisms. They would want to listen to learn. I find myself fascinated that opera isn't just unnatural sounding singing (to me), rather I learned that operatic singing is learning how to use all of the body. I had no idea. Sir, I would like you to react to a metal song of Dan's. I would find it interesting to see your comments on how Dan uses his voice in metal. Thank you.

  • @crystalinahenry4104
    @crystalinahenry4104 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +14

    I'm glad to see you have finally discovered Dan! He is from Brazil, and his diction in most of his songs is really good. Generally you can understand most of the words in his songs, which can't be said about some metal singers, that's for sure! You need to watch some of his Metal songs to see what he can really do! :)
    I would recommend I'll make a Man out of you for his theatrics, if you want to see his breath control, watch Black Wind Fire and Steel, to see the range of what he can do with the metal Genre, watch Bring Me to Life, to see a bit of his fun personality, watch Bohemian Rhapsody, or Pour some sugar on me (trip to the beach),
    If you want to see some of what he calls insanity, watch his 24 man choir Hallelujah Chorus! If you want to see his range, watch any of his female covers, but his Nightwish ones are especially amazing.
    He also does an amazing rendition of Amazing Grace, and has some Christmas metal covers.
    I have subscribed to your channel, and I'm hoping you will do more reactions to his other works. :)
    I really enjoyed your analysis of this. Keep it up! :)😊

I hope you will react to more of Dan's work, such as Amazing Grace, Angels We Have Heard on High, and his metal covers such as I'll Make a Man Out of You, the Disney Mulan song, and Priscilla's Song (metal cover) from the Witcher. Thanks so much and I have subscribed and looks forward to more.

    He does speak fluent German in addition to Brazilian Portuguese. What I love most about Dan is he doesn't sing a song He emotes a song . Since he hit a million subscribers maybe you could do a Million Dreams from greatest Showman. He also does Music of the Night from Phantom and Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar that very much would be quite at home on a Broadway stage . Thank you very much and I hope to hear more of Dan on your Channel

  • @rjross1087
    @rjross1087 14 วันที่ผ่านมา +5

    I enjoyed your reaction and analysis! Dan never set out to become an opera singer, but found that he needed to learn how to become a good singer before he could become a good metal singer, which is still a technique that amazes me - it doesn’t involve the vocal cords! - and he has become a GREAT metal singer. As I’ve often said, no opera singer could sing his version of Burn Butcher Burn (from The Witcher), which I highly recommend. Dan is often called The Man with A Thousand Voices, and several are on display in that song. I think his voice is gorgeous and his expressiveness and charisma extraordinarily. As others have said, he also sings in a number of genres besides metal. Try The Music of the Night or Gethsemane for Broadway Dan, or Angels We Have Heard on High, in five languages and with a “chorus” of Dans, or some of the other suggestions already made. I truly appreciate hearing from people who know what they’re talking about. Thanks so much!

    Rob and Austin from Home Free turned Nessun Dorma into a duet. From the point of view of somebody with no classical training at all, it sounds pretty good.

    In Brazil it is important to completely pronounce words. Also they roll "R"'s in Brazilian Potuguese. Dan feels it is important for him to speak and sing in English because the most of his listeners speak or understand English. It hasn't thrilled many Brazilians, who feel he should perform in his native languaage.
    Dan' father was Italian and they listened to opera frquently. Dan can speak five languages.

    Dan puts his own artistic style and spin on every song he sings and he may not follow exactly the strict rules of classical music or opera but the average untrained person will not hear what you hear. It was very interesting to hear your professional reaction and opinion. His talent is beyond words and so many of us feel his music in our souls. I've never cared for metal or opera but I can listen to any of his songs and be moved to tears and experience chills like I never have with any other singer. I think 1.1 million subscribers is just the beginning for this young man. I am thrilled for him and look forward to hearing any covers he chooses to sing - he sings most songs better than the original singers. Amazing! Thanks for your reaction!

    so enjoyed your very informative reaction. i learned so much. i wish all reactors were as knowledgeable instead of just exclaiming "wow" and waiting to see if any metal was introduced into the song. one of the things that you notice throughout dan's works is his wonderful diction. so many songs that i have listened to years and first understand the lyrics after hearing dan sing them. i am wondering if perhaps the connectivity that you wish would be more present has been sacrificed in the interest of diction? does that make any sense? hope to hear more dan reactions from you. subbed.

    I really enjoyed your analyses. I can appreciate that some of Dan's take is not true to traditional, classical, singing, but I think that was intentional for him. I say that because he works so hard at what he does that if his intentions were to perform it strictly in the traditional sense, I think he would have done that. I also think that some of the pronunciation differences you pointed out, comes more from a language issue with his native language being Brazilian Portuguese. He is very fluent in English and I often hear some differences when he's singing in English too. I believe he also speaks Italian but maybe he's like me and can understand more than speaks. His dad was mostly Italian and that's where his love of opera originated. Him and his dad would sit in the car and listen to opera together. His father passed away about a year before he recorded this as a tribute to his dad. I suspect that's where most of the facial tension and emotion near the end was coming from. It's nice to hear from someone so knowledgeable though, where his choices differ from what's traditional.

    I can only say this - If 'real' opera was performed like that, and sounded like that, i would be spending every single evening in the opera house.
    After listening to Dan's version of this iconic song, traditional opera versions always leaves me in some peculiar way disappointed and wanting.

    A lot of coaches/reactors rarely talk about tension affecting the sound. Plenty of them mention posture and proper breath support, diaphragm engagement etc. Tension changes the sound a lot, I have severe plantar fascitis, doing some crazy stretching dynamically changes my breath support and I am able to sing much more freely. You do a very good job of explaining what's going on for the lamen like me, Dan introduced me to this song. Glad you enjoyed Dan, he's great, I'd suggest checking out some of his Manowar or Iron Maiden covers to hear him at his best, never a bad Dan song.

    • @Lydelith

    I hope Dan views this analysis, for his own confirmations. He loves to improve wherever possible, & your suggestions were short & sweet & your congratulatory remarks so genuine too.
    Dan, is from Brazil, & says he learned most of his english from tv & movies. He obviously watched a lot of the episodes of Friends & Joey's phrases & eyebrow punctuations. He jokingly mentioned how difficult it is to connect with girls at the Gym. Apparently they shy away from his "hey. How you doin'?" 😂
    I love his sense of humor as much as his expressive voice. In fact, there's only a small handful of singers who stir me emotionally, & Dan is at the top of i can count them all list.
    Subbed for more of your wonderful analytics. (& voice!!)

I have always loved classical music but love everything he does, Are you American? if you are, listen to his "Star Spangled Banner" PS, I think he is part Italian on his dad side.

    Btw Dan is also a gamer, has his own retrogaming channel, and has a hysterically funny sense of humor. His actual full name is Daniel Vasconcelos (plus a few other names), but he shortened his name when he branched out to a wider audience outside of Brazil.
    He does everything out of his home, often mixing & mastering his work, plus is quite good at theatrical elements & filming aspects, too. Yet, he leaves all his work on his TH-cam page and website in order to gauge his progress and inspire others to pursue their goals relentlessly. He's also considerably humble with an innate sense of honor & integrity while being just enjoyable to hang out with on a live. Those qualities have endeared himself to many, and that is why Vasc Nation has grown exponentially in recent years. Some of Vasc Nation are the very ones who've reacted to his music and now also follow him on other social media platforms.

    Hey, if you ever want to look at a really good dig at the egos of classical singers, look at Mireille Delunsch's La Folie with maestro Minkowski, including not ending the notes when they should. Just say gimme if you can't find it.
    Fairy Tale next, so you can hear Dan's full range. The live version of the original very much recommended also. There's Dawn of Victory ft. Fabio Lione, Burn Butcher, Burn, Kiss from a Rose, Black Wind, Fire and Steel... But for a real outpouring of emotion, Son of Pain.

    I don't understand why you said he would be rejected, but I know nothing about opera. I did go and listen to Pavarotti after I listened to Dan, and all I can say, is I wouldn't pay a dime to listen to Pavarotti, lol, sorry he sounded kind of sick compared to Dan. The song was just beautiful when Dan was performing, it brought me to tears. All I can say is when it comes to music, Dan is magic.

    • @goodeveningstories
      @goodeveningstories  12 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      In my perspective, opera singing is about the appreciation of vocal technique, the artists complete understanding of music (which can extend into theory, the piece of music their performing, counterpoint, etc.) refinement of their developed skill, natural timbre, and masterful storytelling. It's also a way of appreciating tradition and roots of classical music and singing in a world that is consistently changing and evolving. The genre (like all other musical genres) is not for everyone and, at least for me, was an acquired taste. When I say Dan would be rejected by an opera house, I mean that there is a lot of classical vocal technique he isn't adhering to and creating discrepancies in his sound (which is open to artistic interpretation and much of his audience really likes his own take on the music, like I do as well). I think he did a great performance of the piece, just not performed by traditional standards which opera casters and directors would be hesitant to hire considering much of the audience that listens to opera leans more to the older generations that like consistency and stability in an everchanging world. I have stories about this experience but I'll save that for future videos. I hope this helps =)
