Amira now older is still amazing. This was a 9 year old who channeled the soul of a 30 year old soprano. To people of secular belief, that just does not happen. To those who have a religious bent, these little miracles are reminders of HIS presence. Be what it may, faith is involved.... if it science, she is one in 10 million singers over generations that won the soprano natural lottery. Be it divine intervention, the faithful are reinforced. I think the tears on the faces of many in the audience know what they saw and heard and the emotions did a bypass on scientific train of thought. You can't hide that.I cry every time I listen to her. Amazingly she is self taught at that age. Sam, I love your heartfelt emotions and empathetic responses.
You have stumbled upon what millions regard as the finest lyric soprano currently performing....review her many performances online...she sings opera, classics, movie scores, musical scores, sacred aria, crossover, and gospel. Her performances are often magnificent. She is now about 20 yo. As Andre said, "what a voice!"
Hello. You did a great first reaction ! During an interview a few years ago, Amira said : "When I jump on my trampoline and I float in the air, it's the most beautiful feeling, the same feeling I get when I sing... And then I suddenly fly to a different world and stuff". Indeed, sometimes, Amira seemed to be completely lost in her inner musical world. This was especially the case during her rendition of the Ave Maria by William Gomez, that Andrew mentioned. It was really impressive, and, given her age, maybe her best performance until now...
I love listening to Amira. You should check out all he content... but start with her Hollands Got Talent audition... at that point she was just self taught to sing opera.
Powerfully emotional performance. She was looking for something to sing for a talent show at school, and found Opera on TH-cam and thought it sounded beautiful, so she started practicing. Not long after she went on Holland's Got Talent and blew everyone's minds.
Amira was 9 when she sang at Hollands got talent, 10 in this video. She has been singing since then, and there are some stunning and beautiful pieces on TH-cam. She will be 20 later this month, Mar 2024, and is studying music at university. She is Dutch, but her mother came from South Africa, and that is where she is now living. Some recommendations - Ave Maria , Gomez, at the Canisius church Christmas concert in 2015 Live in concert, Nella Fantasia in 2016. Amazing Grace 2017 Gesu Bambino, informal recording with her father 2023 Amen, with the Ndlovu youth choir 2023 Pronunciation - Villik haagen and Roo are close enough Enjoy listening to her, and keep the odd tissue handy, she does fill her songs with emotion.
I definitely recommend, as others have, the Holland's got talent auditions. They explain it, as much as it can be explained, which is both in depth, and non-existent. In short, she is a complete paradox. And now that she is grown up, she is even better.
Great first reaction! You have just found the greatest and most beloved soprano of all time and you have a LOT of catching up to do! There are so many brilliant Amira performances on you tube to choose from and all will amaze you no matter what age or whether it is a full concert or just a cell phone recording! I have subscribed in the hope that you do many more Amira reactions! Cheers from Australia.
She hasn't stopped amazing people with her performances. all of them are special in their own way. Don't miss any of them. You will be rewarded in many ways.
Samantha, if that moved you to tears (as well it should), wait until you hear or read about her humanitarian efforts to the impoverished children of South Africa! She is as beautiful inside as she is outside and vocally, if not even more so! When you hear her sing "Amazing Grace" at age 13 (right from her heart as a young lady of deep Christian faith), I'm glad you'll be sitting down! LOL!
Danke für die schöne Reaktion. Alle Lieder von Amira sind fantastisch. Sie singt seit sie neun Jahre alt ist. Jetzt ist sie ein Profi und die beste Sopranistin in der heutigen Zeit. Ich freue mich auf ihre Kommentare.
Amira is not real she is a Special Angel of God she is a special phenomenon of God AMIRA THE SPECIAL PRINCESS OF GOD❤❤❤THIS IS AMIRA❤❤❤THANK MY GOD FOR AMIRA❤❤❤
This totally honest reaction is the best I have seen to this angelic voice. Well done. People like Amira come along once in a generation if we areucky enough!!
THIS IS WHAT A SPECIALLY GIFTED PERSON SOUNDS LIKE - YOU SHOULD START WITH OUR ANGEL AMIRA's FIRST THREE ARIAS SHE SANG AT AGE 9 ( JUST BEFORE THIS EVENT ) TO WIN HOLLANDS GOT TALENT IN 2013 - UP TO THIS EVENT WITH ANDRE RIEU, AMIRA WAS SELF TAUGHT and IF YOU OBSERVE HER CONFIDENCE, SHE NEVER HAD ANY DOUBT IN HER TALENT THAT SHE RECEIVED FROM GOD - THANKS SAMANTHA FOR DISCOVERING OUR ANGEL AMIRA - PLEASE DO A LOT MORE REACTIONS - 777 BOER BEN

Thank you and bravo dear Samantha for offering such a wonderful reaction to an out of this world performance by a sweet little angel with an incredible gifted talent. I was deeply moved by your reaction and comments and by the amazing performance of this young artist.
Great reaction! Welcome to the Amira rabbit hole. I've witnessed this performance dozens of times, I still get tears every time. I had a complete spiritual re-boot after watching her audition video. Jesus is her teacher. I look forward to checking out more of your reactions. Peace ...😊
To gradually move forward you might like Nessun Dorma (CIG 2017), or the Sound of Music Medley, when she was 15. Coming more up to date, Gesu Bambino. She also sang "I'll Walk With God", with the South African tenor Lukhanyo Moyake. (Try "Villighaagen").
I just love her expression before she begins - so confident, as though she knows that in about ten seconds these 10,000+ people are going to be blown out of their seats.
Me gustó mucho tu reacción, gracias por los subtítulos. Por allí oí que dijiste publicidad con acento de España, por lo que creo que sabes hablar en español. Ya que entraste en el mundo de Amira Willighagen, ella en ese momento tenía 10 años, te recomiendo que reacciones a el Dueto de Las Flores acompañada de Corlea Botha, en esa canción ella tenía 13 años.

Samantha, splendid genuine reaction to Almira; also, your innate beauty fair rose strikes lightning and thunders across Pucinni's opera score sung by this little angel.
Really enjoyed your reaction to Amira. I discovered Amira because I have been a fan of Jackie Evancho since seeing her oh America's Got Talent in 2010. Jackie had messaged Amira after her first performance on Holland's Got Talent. Amira was thrilled Jackie had reached out to her, and they are still keep in touch. Jackie had created such an uproar with her first performance on AGT, that ALL the Got Talent Shows Worldwide began actively searching for young kids that could sing. Holland's Got Talent got lucky in 2013 and found Amira. The Built their whole 2013 Season around Amira. Amira often sings songs she has seen Jackie perform. This is one of those. Jackie is the youngest solo vocalist to go Platinum, taking that title away from Michael Jackson when she was 10 years old. They filmed her first PBS Great Performances Special 4 days after her 11th Birthday, David Foster produced it, and got Barbra Streisand to do a duet of her Classic "Somewhere" with Jackie. You would love that, but in truth I am believe you will love everything Jackie has sung. And I would love to watch your reactions. This is Jackie performing O Mio Babbino Caro th-cam.com/video/ta1-O7FI9YA/w-d-xo.html
@@cmlarose50 I only found two sites with any reference to sale count of Amira's first album, "Amira"(Sony) One was Slippedisk That claims it is the #1 Classical Music News Site. I am NO FAN of that site nor their editor and #1 Troll Norman Lebrecht. They started attacking Jackie the day after she appeared on AGT in 2010. Several opera snobs lead by Lebrecht got their stuck in the air noses out of joint because AGT fans referring to Jackie as being a beautiful opera singer, and they weren't going to put up with that, so they attacked the "ignorant" fans and Jackie. But returning to NOW, I mean March 29, 2013, Chief Troll Norman wrote, "Amira's No Threat Yet To Heart-Tugging Jackie Evancho." And in Norman's typical snotty troll fashion he continued, saying all of Sony's sales personnel could not push their "Amira" sales to the number one spot. And added in his trademark nasty sarcastic troll fashion. "Meanwhile, Jackie Evancho was making tears Flow on Memorial Day." (referring to Jackie's performances at the outdoor concert being held in Washington, D.C. to celebrate Memorial Day) That site only listed U.S sales to 29 March 2013. The other link was to BestSellingAlbums,org it listed sales in Netherlands at 10,000 with a 1X Gold Certification.

Welcome to Amira’s world. It’s a beautiful place. Look at some of her interview videos and will get an idea of what an incredible person she is.

As you can see you weren’t the only adult she brought to tears either her voice
You are now under her spell ❤ make sure you have a box tissues next to you from now on
You should check out Amira Williahagen first time on the talent show

andre did this years ago with carmen from brazil. it is the best version i've ever seen and i've seen the best.
Entirely self taught from listening to the internet!
Extraordinary. Think about the meaning of that word.
Amira taught herself opera by watching TH-cam
Vill en hagg en pronounced wild bill she is awesome

i believe Amira's 1st album, "Amira" (Sony) went Platinum when she was just 10 as well.
They dispersed in style vastly. Amira sings soprano on the highest level while JE is more pop oriented..
@@yogajedi3337 Truth is Jackie Evancho can sing ANYTHING. Since you are a known troll, no one including Amria and Jackie waste any time on you.

You need to a fur ball in your throat to pronounce her surname
Awsome
She has NO musical education at all. All learning by herself by watching youtube videos...!!
Lol, she now is studying Voice and Conducting at music university.
😱
