It looks to me that, contrary to the "But he seems mad" comment, it's more of an exhaust feeling. It feels like "Crap. I just can't get away from classical music...I'm just so tired of hearing it played." I'm glad he shakes off that feeling and gives a great performance.
I'm impressed how well the singer could roll with the changes. That's not as easy as it seems. Both participants are extremely talented musicians. Bravo! Thank you!
@@kaboom-zf2blNot to take too much away from the talent, but opera singers typically have a repertoire of two dozen arias. If they didn’t know them backwards and sideways six ways from Sunday, they’d be doing something very wrong.
Extremely technically difficult part. Not only did the singer nail it without any preparation, he also adjusted to all the changes on the fly. Top shelf stuff.
As a classical singer myself, I can say that operatic performances are never easy. Every performance requires focus, concentration and effort regardless of how "easy" the singer makes it seem. These guys are both incredible performers.
Yes, whilst I was observing the mastery of the singer I also noticed how the pianist was tickling the ivories very adroitly. Quite remarkable, even if I have my doubts about it being as impromptu as said ❤❤
As a singer, I was also impressed how he was able to belt out those notes and volume while having his arms crossed(for some parts). You restrict your diaphragm and breathing while doing that, so apparently the singer is just that damn good(which he is). They both did an amazing job.
The professionalism to get all the correct parts on the piece after all the cuts the pianist did! And the creativity of the pianist to make it shorter in a seamless way. That was so good
@iplaywithmatches1 Irrelevant. Whether it is or isn't, does not negate the point being made. Besides, I've dealt with opera singers before and they love being the center of attention. So it doesn't have to be fake, despite your witty input.
there are a lot of these types of clips that i def think are staged there are ones where people already had a huge instrument out just waiting for the pianist to start but than theres others like this where its a guy just standing up out of a crowd with a plate of food already in front of him i bet this wasnt staged just a cool video even if they are staged dont let it ruin your enjoyment of the piece :)
For note I'm actually not so sure... could be totally wrong but I have a but of a feeling by his expressions that he was actually trying to work out where the guy was at in the song and whatnot as it varied from his standard if the whole thing. I only say this because I'm a professional musician myself of several instruments and it really does look like that. I don't think if it was staged you could put it in so genuinely. And trust me those are the real expressions of someone lost as to where you are in a piece, not someone that has practiced it several times

To know the song so well you can both riff off each other and jump over sections like that is incredible. Unless you play an instrument or sing it's not obvious how hard that is.
Having failed to learn how to play an instrument, sing, or even just whistle, I can imagine ad-libbing or 'riffing' and coordinating with another musician is very, very hard!
@@saborflamenco1137 this is not a criticism but the same "impromptu" duet happened in a pizza parlor where Julien was playing and Florin happened to be a dine (wearing the same operatic jacket if I recollect right). Two sopranos working in the kitchen also participated. So this is set up in advance and that's fine. The playing and singing are amazing. I love to see talented people joyfully show their skills.
The face of ‘oh well, I have to sing now’. The red face when he reached the climax. The piano being played so beautifully. I just want to witness something this in my life. Would be so so magical
I've watched this many times now. The amount of control and mastery he has over his voice is simply amazing. What a delight. Worth much more than a night at dinner.
I fell in love with this masterpiece on Andre Rieu concert( maestro and violinist). Click the link above or just search FIGARO ANDRE RIEU on youtube. YOU WILL LOVE IT.
I was delighted to watch and hear you play a piano and he sing an opera. It was just a magnificent improvised rendition and beautifully delivered! Bravo! 👍😘💕
Not opera but when I saw Devin Townsend do an acoustic show I was stood right at the front a few feet away and when he belted parts it honestly vibrated me to the very core of my being, I have been to hundreds of amplified gigs but that experience was something I will never ever forget

I LOVED the opera singer's reaction to hearing the song. He was like, dang it, I HAVE TO SING NOW! LOL Both of these performers use instruments! One uses a piano, the other his voice. Both powerful individually, but INCREDIBLE when flowing together like that! Much respect to them both. It was great how the crowd burst forth with such an intense approval when they were done! ❤ I'm so happy someone got this on video and shared it with the world. 😊
The fact he rolled with it so well! I'm extremely impressed with how heads-up he was with the modulations. Man changed on the fly, faster than my ear in drumming can catch something.
Florin Sempey is one of France's most famous opera singers - and a lovely personality. Figaro is one of hisbest known roles and The pianist obviously recognised him.
Music is the most powerful healer in the world and has been the biggest savior in my life since in was a child! That was incredible!! Bravo!! Love from the Mediterranean ♥️
Music is just the most powerful link in the whole world between people. It would be useful to make peace too nowadays or only try to... 🙏🏻😞. It's an amazing way to signify peace to all of us. To be in the mood to be happy when gathering around, like there.( I love the video due to this!) Like when M. Rostropovitch was playing the violoncelle in front of Berlin's wall in 1989! 🥹🎶🎵🎶❤Love from France. 😊💞
Yes yes! Wonderful excerpt! And I love how he picked up his cue with your change -- and I love how you worked your change in so seemlessly!! Impressive for both of you!! Well done well done!!! BRAVO
Wow, you got to have an impromptu performance with a famous opera singer. His voice is stupendous. These people also got a free show. Damn, that was incredible!
@@wawan3961Not really. The guy playing the piano probably got permission to set them up JUST IN CASE anything cool happened. Like this. Plus he's also probably got buddies filming it all. On top of the crowd filming perspectives.
@@wawan3961 while I've never watched this guy's other vids, it's clear he has a crew that films public reactions to his random performances. I think he just got really lucky this time around.
@@NiteRacerYou’re probably American… It’s quite common in Paris to have a piano in a supermarket, a metro station, a shop, a restaurant and to watch people sing. We have a piano at St Pancras station in London too… We don’t need to fake anything….
@@Judi.TThat’s not what makes this video scream “staged!” Did you notice the MANY different cameras set up in the restaurant? Filming the singer BEFORE he began?
Singing is way more complicated than I originally thought, there's so many slight things you can do to change your tone. The main one ive noticed is how much air you put behind a note, things sound way different based on your exhale speed. And you can sing for longer between breaths or with more power depending on the amount of air used. The most impressive part of opera singing to me is their extensive use of full exhalation but never hearing them breath
@@Fyodor2976 i am pretty sure, it helps him to hear better, how he sings and concentrate. Some Beatboxers do that as wel, when they concentrate on something
I am pretty sure, they use an " Overtone Technique " to get their Voice out more easily but still strong, i sang in a Choir for Months, there i first heard of that Technique.
I don't personally like opera but even I recognize that famous part. You guys worked INSANELY WELL together! Truly fantastic artistry 👏🏻 Bravo, gentlemen.
I'm a raptor, doing what I can, goin' to eat everything till the appearance of man. Yo yo see me, I'm living beneath the soil. I'll be back but I'm coming as oil.
Er wollte eigentlich garnicht singen , aber das war schon extreme Weltklasse , ohne Vorbereitung und ohne das erste Einsingen...Super und großen Applaus.!!
Not sure how I found this video, glad that I did! I thought that Florian was going to be a diva but he totally followed your lead and it was amazing. Excellent playing Julien!!
WOW ! What a voice! I'm 74 and about 30 years ago I remember seeing Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo at the Metropolitan Opera House in NYC in the same season!! I was stunned by the beautiful voices ! I still get goose bumps when I hear opera!! What an art form!!😅😊😊
What a gracious, lively, friendly, young opera singer!😊 Really enjoyed his enthusiastically generous personality 👍 Thank you to the accomplished piano player who gave the young opera professional a chance for an impromptu share of the music that he obviously loves❤ so much, and can sing so well 🎵🎶 - even without rehersal or advance notice !🎉
It looked impromptu for Florian and the piano player but I’m guessing somebody knew that Was Florian Sempey eating dinner and asked the piano player to play Figaro’s Aria. And then it was on!!!! I absolutely loved this and watch it for a shot of joy when I need one.Bravo Bravo Bravo!!!! I love getting to see high end craft in people no matter what it is… like watching Simone Biles tumble or watching Kobe Bryant hustle the basketball court or James Gates giving an astrophysics lecture😎 I’m a grateful listener❤
Насколько скромен этот восхитительный певец! В конце он похлопал пианисту! Безусловно, это труд выиграть все ноты, но его пение просто божественно. Никакие басковы, которые мнят себя оперными певцами не то что рядом не стояли, а вообще не стОят и ворсинки на его пиджаке. Браво! ❤
I liked his face when he started playing the singer was like "oh crap now i have to sing it" totally worth it...
He knew he'd be mad at himself for not singing it.
Yep that’s exactly what happened!
He could have totally played it off and just let the guy play, but that is how much he loves singing. He knew he had to join in!
It looks to me that, contrary to the "But he seems mad" comment, it's more of an exhaust feeling. It feels like "Crap. I just can't get away from classical music...I'm just so tired of hearing it played." I'm glad he shakes off that feeling and gives a great performance.
@@PhotoMateKitt I can see this. He's thinking, I just wanted some time away from work, lol.

Both of these performers use instruments! One uses a piano, the other his voice. Both powerful individually, but INCREDIBLE when flowing together like that! Much respect to them both. It was great how the crowd burst forth with such an intense approval when they were done! ❤ I'm so happy someone got this on video and shared it with the world. 😊
Ouah, bravo à toi et au chanteur qui est venu s'ajouter à ton air. Continue j'adore tes vidéos musicales ❤❤❤👍
Florian Sempey, excellent baritone. He has a real ease in singing.
The fact he rolled with it so well! I'm extremely impressed with how heads-up he was with the modulations. Man changed on the fly, faster than my ear in drumming can catch something.
it's staged, sir.
I actually got choked up a bit at the end. Really impacted me for some reason. Outstanding showmanship on both your parts! Bravo! Thank you!
That Singer was a full blown MAN. So much talent, I admire his courage and ability. ❤
What a performance!!! THANKS to both of you!!!!!!
That was amazing, the improvisations were so slick and that singer was sharp AF!
Brilliant
😂Improvisations he says as if it wasnt giga staged 😂
@@Chali_94 that's ok if it's staged.
Still sounded good to my ears, fun to watch.
Any suggestions for other music in this genre thats worth a listen?
Florin Sempey is one of France's most famous opera singers - and a lovely personality. Figaro is one of hisbest known roles and The pianist obviously recognised him.
Dude at 1:26 is having the best time of his life just going with it 😂
INCROYABLE !!! J'en ai les larmes aux yeux ! Quelle émotion ❤
Music is the most powerful healer in the world and has been the biggest savior in my life since in was a child! That was incredible!!
Bravo!!
Love from the Mediterranean ♥️
Music is just the most powerful link in the whole world between people. It would be useful to make peace too nowadays or only try to... 🙏🏻😞.
It's an amazing way to signify peace to all of us. To be in the mood to be happy when gathering around, like there.( I love the video due to this!)
Like when M. Rostropovitch was playing the violoncelle in front of Berlin's wall in 1989! 🥹🎶🎵🎶❤Love from France. 😊💞
A brilliant performance of two talented Musicians. Thank You .
MAGNIFICENT!!!! That's all I can say. Thank you for sharing this!
Oh I wish I had been in there!. Beautifully played, beautifully sung! Bravo!!! 👏❤
Yes yes! Wonderful excerpt! And I love how he picked up his cue with your change -- and I love how you worked your change in so seemlessly!! Impressive for both of you!! Well done well done!!! BRAVO
Flawless
Wow, you got to have an impromptu performance with a famous opera singer. His voice is stupendous. These people also got a free show. Damn, that was incredible!
The show was great!
But let's be honest, there were a bit too many camera angles right from the start for it to be "impromptu" 😉
@@wawan3961Not really. The guy playing the piano probably got permission to set them up JUST IN CASE anything cool happened. Like this.
Plus he's also probably got buddies filming it all. On top of the crowd filming perspectives.
@@wawan3961 while I've never watched this guy's other vids, it's clear he has a crew that films public reactions to his random performances. I think he just got really lucky this time around.
@@SessmaruKusanagiGamingunrelated but I have a bridge to sell you
@@MidnightSonnet Yes yes and the moon is made of cheese.
This was so enjoyable to watch, and listen. Incredible playing and singing! Loved all of it!!!
この場所に行きたいです😊日常でこんなに素敵な音楽を聴けるなんて羨ましい❤
For two people of that amount of talent and skill to just happen to be in the same place at the same time is astounding.
Ya it's staged lol
Ffs 😂
@@NiteRacerYou’re probably American… It’s quite common in Paris to have a piano in a supermarket, a metro station, a shop, a restaurant and to watch people sing. We have a piano at St Pancras station in London too… We don’t need to fake anything….
@@Judi.Tcongratulations on all of your pianos, you win
@@Judi.TThat’s not what makes this video scream “staged!” Did you notice the MANY different cameras set up in the restaurant? Filming the singer BEFORE he began?
Singing is way more complicated than I originally thought, there's so many slight things you can do to change your tone. The main one ive noticed is how much air you put behind a note, things sound way different based on your exhale speed. And you can sing for longer between breaths or with more power depending on the amount of air used. The most impressive part of opera singing to me is their extensive use of full exhalation but never hearing them breath
Is that why he had his hand on his ear/neck so much? Because of these variations in tone?
Breath control is a huge factor for sure. You have to think about every single note and how much breath you’re going to ration for each one.
@@Fyodor2976 i am pretty sure, it helps him to hear better, how he sings and concentrate. Some Beatboxers do that as wel, when they concentrate on something
I am pretty sure, they use an " Overtone Technique " to get their Voice out more easily but still strong, i sang in a Choir for Months, there i first heard of that Technique.
I don't personally like opera but even I recognize that famous part. You guys worked INSANELY WELL together! Truly fantastic artistry 👏🏻 Bravo, gentlemen.
I'm a raptor, doing what I can, goin' to eat everything till the appearance of man. Yo yo see me, I'm living beneath the soil. I'll be back but I'm coming as oil.
Anyone that's ever watched Bugs Bunny cartoons knows that song.
Wow, wow, wowie! What a treat!!! 2 MASTERS of their craft!!! This put a huge smile on my face! Thank you!
Er wollte eigentlich garnicht singen , aber das war schon extreme Weltklasse , ohne Vorbereitung und ohne das erste Einsingen...Super und großen Applaus.!!
Stimme voll zu!
Robin Williams' version in Mrs Doubtfire always gets me smiling 😊 great performance
What a lovely impromptu performance! It lifted my soul on a dark and cold October morn. Merci bien!
Multiple camera cuts would imply otherwise
Bravo, maestro! Big hugs from Moscow ❤
Wow! You together made history! So epic, precise, entertaining! Thanks from Germany!
Extraordinaria interpretación del pianista y el cantante! Bravo! Bravissimo!❤❤❤
Wow! The power in that gentleman's verbrato is amazing!!!! Beautiful voice!!! You both did an amazing job!!! 🙌💯💗
I love how they’re communicating without speaking to each other
Not sure how I found this video, glad that I did!
I thought that Florian was going to be a diva but he totally followed your lead and it was amazing.
Excellent playing Julien!!
WOW ! What a voice! I'm 74 and about 30 years ago I remember seeing Luciano Pavarotti and Placido Domingo at the Metropolitan Opera House in NYC in the same season!! I was stunned by the beautiful voices ! I still get goose bumps when I hear opera!! What an art form!!😅😊😊
Brings tears to my eyes. Bravo to both of them! 🎉
Julien Cohen piano play is absolute beauty.
That was POWERFULLY WONDERFUL!! Amazing singer, amazing accompaniment!!!🔥🔥🔥
Incroyable, magnifique, quel duo, quel talent, quelle coordination improvisée pour ces deux artistes ! 😍👏
I’m not even a fan of opera but I wish I could have been there. That was incredibly impressive.
Improvisation was magnificent!!! The way you found to shorten the song, the way he was able to stay with you…just beautiful. Thank you both! ❤
BRAVO TO THE PIANIST AND THE BARITONE! WHAT A MAGNIFICENT IMPROMPTU PERFORMANCE!
As a classically trained musician, i love it when this happens ❤.
A música é o idioma onde os seres humanos se unem e se entendem, não importa a língua e a raça, cria-se uma conexão humanamente divina! Paz e bem
Sensacional... Inusitado, inesperado, fantástico! ❤❤❤
That’s a person that loves what he does and truly understands the impact music has on people.
What a gracious, lively, friendly, young opera singer!😊 Really enjoyed his enthusiastically generous personality 👍
Thank you to the accomplished piano player
who gave the young opera professional a chance for an impromptu share
of the music that he obviously loves❤ so much, and can sing so well 🎵🎶 - even without rehersal or advance notice !🎉
Oh please this is as impromptu as the Iraqi invasion.
It looked impromptu for Florian and the piano player but I’m guessing somebody knew that Was Florian Sempey eating dinner and asked the piano player to play Figaro’s Aria. And then it was on!!!! I absolutely loved this and watch it for a shot of joy when I need one.Bravo Bravo Bravo!!!! I love getting to see high end craft in people no matter what it is… like watching Simone Biles tumble or watching Kobe Bryant hustle the basketball court or James Gates giving an astrophysics lecture😎 I’m a grateful listener❤
@@theshushu7940
Not quite, Sunshine. Iraq invasion was evil and lethal. This talented artist offers neither effect.
Cheers🎉
@@rmp7400 Lol whooosh!
Their connection at 1:02 IS GORGEOUS
SUPERB !! I did not think I would cry tonight , but here I am ... emotionally engaged with the music !
Absolutely magic! I'm amazed hiw the singer jumped from one part of the aria with the pianist. Well done both of you ! Magnificent! ❤😊
Outstanding, I fell in love with Opera and the Symphony when my Mother took me to Music Hall in Cincinnati when I was 5 years old!
Насколько скромен этот восхитительный певец! В конце он похлопал пианисту! Безусловно, это труд выиграть все ноты, но его пение просто божественно. Никакие басковы, которые мнят себя оперными певцами не то что рядом не стояли, а вообще не стОят и ворсинки на его пиджаке. Браво! ❤
You two are very dynamic together! Beautiful performance!!! ❤
It demanded to be sung!! He couldn't refuse. He was amazing
The patrons of the restaurant are so so lucky to have watched it live…. Bravo to pianist and extremely talented opera singer
What a wonderful surprise for the crowd. It was beautiful and so much fun to watch. Thanks for posting it❣️🙏🏻
It is so beautiful when you see professional artists performing just for the love of their profession. This was an excellent performance.
Impressionante! 👏👏👏 De improviso cantar dessa forma e com essa voz imponente, esse é um verdadeiro artista.
That was amazing. Wish I’d been there to hear his power live. Great watching two musicians adjust to each other on the fly. Very impressive.
You saw him, right? And then you played him into existence, for you knew he could not resist. Ha! Well done, sir!
Everybody are wonderful
I am from Brazil and love opera. Congratulation guys. Bravo, bravissimo 👏👏👏👏👏
