Russell is a fantastic tenor (sharp and powerful), to contrast Jonathan Antoine is a deep emotional tenor, as Pavarotti was. His voice is simply natural and not learned, it emanates from his soul. There is almighty power also within his voice, when he decides to use it, Jonathan Antoine is destined to be one of, if the THE, greatest tenor whom has ever lived. Keep singing Jonathan, you are a gift to the world, and you must share this gift!!
Nic Davison ...Pavarotti's voice didn't have the depth of Jonathan's, he mostly sang in the higher Tenor register almost entirely a treble type voice or a mid sized Lyric-Tenor, Jonathan can sing in this way also but he can sing deeper more dramatically too. Russell is great in his field but lacks the classical mentoring to have a serious Operatic voice, he is more in the Bocelli mold of Classical-Pop performer.
Love Russell … his voice … but Jonathan is just simply WOW … his voice is just another level of perfection… at such a young age too as he is here, his voice has gone on to mature even better .. congratulations young man 👌
2020 UPDATE : Jonathan Antoine's 3rd solo album CD "GOING THE DISTANCE" includes a wonderful DVD of his LIVE Concert filmed in Toronto in June 2019 😀 CD & DVD and current info available via this link: www.jonathanantoinemusic.com/
margchris Russell is a good Popera singer but we never designed to be a true Operatic tenor whereas Jonathan is. He still has alot of hard work ahead of him to become the cream of the crop but at this point in time he's already better then the likes of Russell, Alfie Boe and even Andrea Bocelli in the Classical Crossover category.
***** Why so?...he clearly is. He has a much more richer timbre and flowing musicality with his voice and technically where Russell and Andrea in particular strain every sinew to hit the high notes it is a more natural sound coming from Jonathan.
How animated and fun to watch these talented singers. I'll listen to jonathan forever!! Sooo happy he found a successful niche in life. He deserves it.
AWESOME!!!I've been "out of the loop" with what's been going on with Jon, & to see this is so very exciting - watching him mesh with Russell vocally & with humour fills me with happiness :):) Thanks for sharing, Jon has a piece of my heart forever
Please make a tour around the world!!!! Come to México pleaseee!!!!! It is incredible the voice that Jonathan has. I would love to have the opportunity to listen to him live.
December 2015 and Jonathan's Solo career blossoming. He has a new Christmas single released "Christmas Dream Come True" available to download through iTunes or Amazon .. only 79p and sung in his soft melodious voice, surely will become a Christmas Classic.

Love the interaction between Jon & Russell! Jonathan seems to get lost in the music. I'm so happy Russell asked Jonathan to join his tour. Now I have 2 tenors to "root" for. Lol
I love the hamming around they do. It makes them human and shows mutual respect for each other's talent. They are both awesome in the historical use of the word.
The audience reaction proves it and some of the comments below corroborate it; JONATHAN stands out from other great tenors because his whole technique and style seems perfectly NATURAL and not robotic, strained or trained
Rubbish, Russell is one of the greats and stands out very much himself. Not just for his incredible talent but his charisma and looks and story of survival
Silly comments about the religious context are ridiculous as religion should surely be fun? If it not fun then why waste a life in something that you don't enjoy or take exception to when someone finds the joy you cannot see. If it don't make you smile then you are believing in the wrong things in life and should get one.
I agree. I hope they know what they are singing about. I wouldn't go so far as to say a "waste". But, there is a need to connect with the words that they are singing. That being said, I can't wait to see Jonathan in concert here in the US.
I think you are confusing religious and spiritual: the pure joy these two radiate as they perform this heavenly music reflects the God of love who inspired its composition. I admire that Russell Watson is not threatened by the young talent he has taken under his wing: he seems like a man of truly generously spirit, encouraging and supporting those around him.

Itis nice if one is convinced of his own magnificence
ursmue1937 Huh?
Love the interaction between Jon & Russell! Jonathan seems to get lost in the music. I'm so happy Russell asked Jonathan to join his tour. Now I have 2 tenors to "root" for. Lol
I wish we had "Three Tenors" - the UK with their very own 3 wonderful tenors - what a tour that would be :D
rebbeca phillips ...me, too!
Great stuff. Love it.
I hope mr. Watson is still singing. Loved this duet.

Russell, such a gentleman.
I love the hamming around they do. It makes them human and shows mutual respect for each other's talent. They are both awesome in the historical use of the word.
Better and better. 💜💜💜💜💜👍👍👍👍👍👍🎼🎵🎶🎼🎶🎵🎤🎤🎤🎤💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I LOVE YOU JONATHAN ;) amazing voice.
Alguém no Brasil muito lindo

A Great Tenor
I am so happy this will be a solo on Tenoré - it is going to be AMAZING!
Russell Watson AND Jonathan Antoine - Together ! There is a God after all !
❤
Este joven será el Pavarotti del siglo XXI. Excelente voz y técnica.
I love how Jonathan hasn't let his new found popularity get to his head and seems quite laid back.
This young man was bullied laughed at when at school I bet bullies not laughing now
They are HYSTERICAL!!! WISH they would come to the States. sad face
I would imagine they've really turned the gain down on Jonathan's mic input
Would be great if the did a CD together.
Caruso the II~~~Amazing Vocals!
padrisimo
can anyone tell me what key they are singing in please
What a couple of hams!!

Why not a Faryl Smith and Jonathan Antoine Song! They've be amazing together!
Silly comments about the religious context are ridiculous as religion should surely be fun? If it not fun then why waste a life in something that you don't enjoy or take exception to when someone finds the joy you cannot see.

amira
Would b great to hear alfie boe sing with them to. He would lift it up a notch or two. Great video.
Pavarotti aint got nothing on Jonathan.
this is a devoutly serious religious piece of music not something to clown around in! awful!!! waste of a good voice and I only mean Jonathan.
I agree. I hope they know what they are singing about. I wouldn't go so far as to say a "waste". But, there is a need to connect with the words that they are singing. That being said, I can't wait to see Jonathan in concert here in the US.
+Steve Walter Waiting impatiently in California. Thought I saw something about Jon visiting later on this year. Have you heard?
