The man leading the orchestra is the conductor not the composer. Puccini was the composer 100 years ago.
Pavarotti was one of the most amazing tenors in the world of opera
We learnin'! :)
Puccini died in 1924
while he was writing this opera Turandot.
@@johncrwarner From what I've read there were lots of arguments on who and how the opera was to be completed after Puccini's death.
@@rubyslippers8215
The only uncompleted part was the final duet - and he wasn't happy with the text for that.
It was completed up until them as I understand it.
I've seen few reactions where there has been a conductor ie the Proms and most Americans say composer
The face of someone who knows they just had a legendary performance.
He was literally in his own world in that moment Luciano WAS Calaf, and you see him snap back to reality and realise where he is and what he's doing.
Or one who tough Hi Hop or Rapping was the greatest achievement of music. 😄
For anyone wondering about the bit at the end where he looks stuck, that's actually what happened. When Tenors hit a power note, it's difficult for us to let go of the power. Something in the chest doesn't want the resonance to end and tries to hold on. I've experienced it a couple of times, it's like you're wielding a ball of fire. That's why the tenor is always the hero
It's similar for sopranos. Different than the "o" but your whole body, down to your toes, resonates with those high frequencies and the volume and it's sublime. My very gentlemanly elderly vocal coach, a tenor, once asked very delicately what the high notes feel like for a soprano. He'd always wanted to know but didn't want to offend anyone by asking. I was the only one he dared ask and he approached the subject very carefully. My answer was they're very different sensations but I'd be hard-pressed to choose. He nodded thoughtfully and murmured, "I thought so. I thought so."
@gailanderson7217 nice! The high frequency of vibrations is why it's so hard for Tenors and Sopranos to hold in to their voice longterm unless you really take good care of it. I'm always impressed when I see someone in their 60s still going strong
I’m a tenor and agree, 100%. That feeling is overwhelming.
I saw a comment on a reaction video that Pavarotti's final reaction was in response to a realization that he had just completed the ultimate, perfect performance of this piece. I have to agree.
Part of his charismatic gift was the ability to make the big moment seem bigger, no matter how many times he had done it before.
yes, his facial expression makes me think of a man who at the start when he comes onto the stage is internally nervous and not sure how the night will go and at the end realizing himself that he just did something that is not easily repeated by anyone not even himself.
The BEST thing about CZcams reactions is getting to watch music lovers of all genres getting turned on to work from outside their own musical lane!!
Pavarotti once said in an interview here in the UK that he told his daughters to not limit their listening to one type of music but to listen to all genres and pick what you like From all styles.
People think that the best singers in their genre of music only listen to their own kind of music. But they listen to all sorts of music! Elvis listened to gospel, country, blues, jazz, pop and he loved listening to opera.
It’s getting harder to believe these guys never heard or heard of some of the music. Starting to feel staged
One of the greatest tenors of our time singing a beautiful piece of music. Thank you for the lovely surprise. BTW - the story: he (Calaf) was hoping to marry her, while she (Princess Turandot) was hoping to execute him. Just a simple love story really.
😄😄
Not just the greatest tenor of our time, but one of the greatest of ALL time!
THE greatest.
One of?
@@bazo3778 Yes, one of. Opera existed long before recorded music, and the many great voices of the past remain unheard
Here is a cool comment from one of your subscribers. My grandmother was the program director of Carnegie Hall from 1985-2001. I met Luciano Pavarotti several times!! The 1st time that I met him I was 14. Right after rehearsal we went and got Haagen Dazs ice cream--hahaha!! He wanted to "soothe" his throat. I was in a Boy Choir at the time and asked him about the ice cream. He said," HOT before singing and COLD after singing. Always. Got it? Good Boy. " I will never forget that exchange--hahaha. He was so cool and casual. He loved my grandmother (who just passed on November 18th 2023 at age 89). To me, he was a kind man first & THEN the greatest operatic 2nd Tenor EVER!
What a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing that.
❤❤❤
Really a great story ! Thank you ❣
Who was nr 1, curious🤔
@@MickeJonasson-hh9wp I am not sure if you are just playing around here, but "2nd Tenor" is a voice range. 1st Tenor, 2nd Tenor, Baritone, & Bass are the male groupings. For women, there is 1st Soprano, 2nd Soprano, 1st Alto, & 2nd Alto. While Luciano was alive he was the #1 2nd Tenor opera singer in the world. :o)
Luciano Pavarotti singing with James Brown. Yes, *that* James Brown. The godfather of soul. Treat yourself to that. It's amazing how well it works. Really amazing.
Yes, it's awesome 👌
Ditto! Fabulous! And the respect and reverence they show for each other, absolute masters at their respective craft, is awesome! 💯
This! Watch this!
Also Perhaps Love with John Denver.
I loved him and James Brown singing This is a man’s World!! So classy and absolutely amazing!!!
Luciano Pavarotti, Plácido Domingo and José Carreras...the 3 Tenors...amazing group!!! were iconic for a long time
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the 3 tenors together!!! I hope this young man does his reaction on The Three Tenors!!! They are, in my opinion exquisite, each by themselves and also together!!!! ✨💖✨
he should listen to O sole mio from them.
I agree with all of you.
Was looking for this, when they compete for the long high notes, amazing and funny. O sole mio is pure perfection czcams.com/video/ZvLZSgP0QMY/video.html
I agree!💖
What I noticed is how powerful his voice is, yet he remains perfectly calm while singing. There's no struggle to hit those notes, and his voice is clear, yet powerful. No wonder he's considered the best.
That's the training with the breathing especially...
The audio we hear was dubbed in from studio sessions for the CD/DVD. Whether or not he was singing to or miming in front of the audience to a backing track varied from night to night and song to song.
I got goosebumps! I had the sound track to the movie Amadeus....in my latest 20's some exhilarating and I'd be cleaning house to and others made me cry... classical music is very moving in all ways!
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee Proof
Opera developed before the microphone was invented.
One of the greatest voices in history! Here's a true story: I taught middle school for 36 years. When it was my turn to run the after school detention, I brought a boom box to work and played Pavarotti. It not only was calming and relaxing for me after a long day, I found it did the same for the kids! lol I had admins walk by, look in, and were surprised at how well behaved the kids were! Any kids that complained, I told them that they shouldn't get detention anymore then. Simple. It was a win-win!
Brilliant story ❤
And that's why Pavarotti is THE BEST!!!
Opera performers aren't just singers. They are actors. Getting you to feel the story they are telling is what they do.
Classical/Opera is such a vibe, even if u don’t understand the lyrics…..u feel every word, it’s sooooo powerful
first time i heard Boheme, i was just a kid... probably 10 or 11. it was on the radio and i didn't understand a word (even though my family was italian, they wouldn't speak it around us unless they were talking about something they didn't want us to know about :( ).. and when it got to the end and he sang, "MIMIIIIIIIIIIIII MIMIIIIIIIIIIIIII" I had zero idea what he had been talking about but i knew something awful happened and i burst into tears. Puccini will do that to you, but it takes a great voice to make you FEEL it.
In 1990 the BBC used this bit of music for the World Cup from Italy 🇮🇹 for their football matches and a new generation of fans were exposed to opera for the 1st time
You don’t even need to know Italian to experience the tremendous emotion of this performance. Pavarotti gave you more than just his voice, he gave you his heart and his soul.
In the UK, this song will forever be connected to the Italian 1990 World Cup. Amazing.
will allways remeber them great time
it kills me..gazzas tears..missed penalties ..eats me up inside lol
Yes. Italia 90. That's when three tenors were put together for the concert for the world cup tournament. The orchestra was conducted by Zubin Mehta. They were also on the next World cup 1994 in the US. And after that it became a bomb. Pavarotti, Carreras and Domingo toured the world with Three tenors show and played on stadiums like rock stars. It was huge and lasted until 2003.
It was already around a hundred years before for that and has been associated with so much more. Always has been, always will be.
@@personalcheeses8073 he said in the uk.. and its to the masses
Oh, I had to stop what I was watching to come watch this. It’s always cool seeing somebody get introduced to something so powerful.
Classical music is POWERFUL
I was lucky enough to visit Beerhovens home in Germany when I was there. Seeing his actual written compositions ,and his hearing aid contraptions to help him along while his deafness took over...how sad ,music is your gift your world and your hearing goes. He did write a most somber sounding ,beautiful pc while losing his hearing or already nearly deaf...cause these guys did write hearing every instrument in their head...
Never get tired of watching this man ! He was so talented !!
Hearing Pavarotti perform holds a warm place in my heart. It is the last birthday gift I got from my husband. The tickets arrived 3 weeks after his death. RIP my Cowboy. Of course, just feeling the power of this man's voice can bring tears to your eyes, so you can all imagine how many tissues I went through. It was an unforgettable evening. RIP Luciano Pavarotti.
One of the greatest tenors ever lived
Thank you ❤
That, my dear rapper, was music.
Hahaha 😅
As an Italian subscriber from Napoli (Italy), it's so strange to see you react to Luciano Pavarotti, a real legend in italy and all over the world... in Italy we are very proud of our music history and of our legends 🔥❤️🇮🇹
Strange???...every reactor does this clip eventually, almost like there is a rule that requires it.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee bro can u fckin read? I mean that as an italian it's strange to see someone react to pavarotti, expecially black pegasus... was not expected at all. Chill bro
@@djguidopolese If you follow reactors more seing this will become a commonplace thing. Strange would be a reactor doing any other clip by Pavarotti, like "Ah Mes Amis" or any of his duets with Sutherland or Freni.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee ye I see what u mean, maybe it's just cause it's the first time i see a reactor doing pavarotti, and expecially a reactor i'm familiar and being an american rapper.
When you can watch "The Three Tenors", Carreras, Domingo and Pavarotti, singing together, it's like dying of pleasure....!!!
I think it's funny...especially o sol mio
The best way to die 😅
There is singing, and then there is SINGING…this shows what true singing looks like. When you hear someone who can sing like this, all singing in the future will forever be something different. Still singing, but when you know people are capable of this, you recognize the levels of performing that people are capable of doing you may not have realized existed beforehand.
This piece is 100 years old.
and is still perfect.
Now for Freddie and Monserrat ,Barcelona will blow your mind 👏👏👏
Seconded.
Just listened to this for the first time based on your recommendation. Awesome!
Freddy, never afraid to step it up a notch. He was in his element standing next to Montserrat.
Oh yes Please!!
There were so many emotions tied to that piece and that recording...
First, listen to it again with head phones and close your eyes. Second, Andrea Bocelli sings the one in step brothers. He’s a blind opera singer who is my favorite! Third, thank you for this. - Kristin
Bocelli did duets with Celine Dion (The Prayer) and with Sarah Brightman (Time to Say Goodbye) (Andrew Lloyd Webber's ex and the original lead female, Christine, in Phantom of the Opera). Both duets are amazing.
I love listening to Bocelli
@@sandralybrand9425 Me too! When my son was little he got sick a lot so I would slow dance with him in my arms to Andrea Bocelli’s Con te Partiro. When he gets married that’s going to be our mother son dance.
@@wendypow1963 I’ve heard them both. Stunning! There’s just something timeless about his voice.
Love Andrea Bocelli. Voice of an angel. Him and Sarah Brightman singing Time to Say Goodbye brings me to tears every time.
Pavarotti was such champion of all kinds of music. You should check out out some of his duets with rock/pop signers.
James Brown and pavarotti excellent
Yeah, I always thought Meat Loaf had a good, strong voice, until I heard him sing with Pavarotti. Meat's voice sounded so tiny next to Pavarotti.
The greatest tenor of all time. His vocal clarity is unmatched. To think Pavarotti still sounded this incredible at nearly 60-years-old in this video is amazing.
Unbelievable natural voice. He smoked cigars ate food you should not eat as an opera singer and yet this voice continue to pour out. Absolutely god-given and gives me shivers every single time.
He admitted "la dolce vita" got the better of him and led to his premature decline. Had he trained like Domingo, Domingo never would have caught him from behind and the GOAT question would be a settled matter. He still kept his gift for recognizing and delivering the Big Moment, even if he did not give his all throughout, sort of like a basketball player known for only trying hard in the playoffs.
He died of Pancreatic cancer
The greatest. Luciano passed away in 2007, at the age of 71, to pancreatic cancer. He sang this song at the opening ceremony of the 2006 Winter Olympics in Italy. RIP Luciano. They have used 'Nessun Dorma' in a lot of movies. Especially, gangster movies. Watch the video of the 3 Tenors concert in L. A. in 1994. You will hear so much great music. He was known as the 'King of High C'. In one concert he held that final note for 18 seconds. The opera is Turandot.
Wow, I always get goosebumps when I watch this, an incredible performance, epic. What a voice Pavarotti had, just amazing and I love this aria.
One time when Pavarotti couldn't perform at the Grammys, Aretha Franklin took over. She had to sing in his key and basically do it without rehearsal. It gives me goosebumps even more so than him singing it the traditional way. Check it out when you get a chance
She had sung the piece a couple of nights earlier at a roast, albeit in a more comportable key for her. She was actually there as Plan B for a skit that might not have worked out.
Yes, she was amazing!
You did not just listen to a song this time, you had a whole new experience
incredibile to see the rappers face, he understands the unique quality of this great voice. I love his reaction
Whenever he hits that, note at the end. i get goose bumps and shiver, and i shed a tear. Never knew what the words were
The piece is hundred years old (premiered in 1924). Puccini's Turandot, from which "Nessun dorma" is taken, is one of the latest great Italian operas, a classical genre who has it roots in early 17Th century. The power in Pavarotti's voice in his prime was simply otherworldly.
Luciano was amazing. When he sang Ave Maria it brought me to tears EVERY time. He’s Italian, we are a passionate people, hence the face.
You have just seen and heard perfection 🎉❤
It was from the opera Turandot by Giacomo Puccini and this piece is one of the most recognized by the world and Luciano made it his own! He was fantastic and one of this world’s greatest tenors ever.
You should look into more of the 3 tenors concerts they were epic!
Makes me go all goose bumpy
The 3 Tenors doing Brindisi is fantastic too
I'm not an opera fan, but I could listen to him all day! Love him.
Legend has it that his final note peeled back time and space and his expression was that of a man seeing straight into the Heavenly splendour.
😁😄✌
First you become a metalhead, now you're making your way through opera. If you want both in one, check out Floor Jansen and Henk Poort doing Phantom of The Opera. Incredible.
Floor Jansen is exquisite!!!! I absolutely adore her voice, her power, her range!!! I cried the first time I heard her. She took my breath away. She still does. I am her Fangirl for life!! ✨💖✨
The greatest tenor to have lived. A simply incredible and powerful voice.
This always seems to bring tears to my eyes.
Goosebumps! Every time i hear Pavarotti sing. ❤❤
the three tenors live will rock you...
I loved when I read that David Draiman of the group Desturbed saw that show "the 3 tenors" with his Dad. Shows what his beginnings and training was all about ! David said it moved him so ,it was all so magnificent...
Right On! Never in a million did I think I'd see this here. ❤❤❤
Opera is a genre for all people, whether or not they realize it. You are 100% right that the emotions come through the music and you can feel the meaning, even without knowing the language. Freddie Mercury (of Queen) was an opera lover and a huge fan of Montserrat Caballe, a Spanish opera star. He wrote operatic music to perform with her & if you want to experience a stunning performance, check out their performance of "Barcelona".
BARCELONA!!!!
The three Tenors Album was the most sold classic Album of all times. Pavarottis Voice you only find once in a Century.
Oh for his voice, i think quite a bit longer! No one will ever match him. Of this, I am quite sure.
Such an amazing performance ....
💗 -this is my absolute favorite singer singing the song that him the best ever.
Loo-chi-ah-no! Love that you're going this broad in your selection.
This went to number 2 in the UK charts in 1990 as it was used by the BBC in its World Cup coverage
That is a GoAT delivering THE GoAT performance and he realized it and the audience knew they had just witnessed HISTORY.
AND, . . . the princess is going to kill her servants (the chorus) if they do not discover the suitor's identity by sunrise.
If his identity is not discovered, the princess has to marry him.
And that is High Opera, there will be a body count.
The word you were looking for is Conductor. They are the person leading the musicians.
The Composer is the one that writes the music.
I adore Puccini and this is my favorite aria performed by my favorite tenor. It is opera and you should dive in. It’s an incredible genre of music. Prepare to be moved. 🥲🥰 Next you should try Maria Callas singing Puccini’s “O mio babbino caro.” She is also a legend.
Kiri Te Kanawa - New Zealand opera star, does a lovely rendition of "O Mio...", also. For BP - this song was "made mainstream famous" when it was used as the opening song to the movie "A Room With a View." For fun listen to the "serious" version, then go listen to awesome kid ventriloquist, Darcy Lynn, have "her puppet" Petunia sing it. It will BLOW YOUR MIND.
@@rubyslippers8215 Thanks, Ruby Slippers. I will definitely give that a listen. 🎧 I listened to this rendition (czcams.com/video/ZRuYQ9KRJms/video.htmlsi=BczXv_65RN6jgavs) and got too many feels. My goodness, the clarity of her voice is incredible. I loved it. Thanks for the recommendation!
@@rubyslippers8215 I'd say that was KTK's finest moment not involving Strauss. As for Callas, if you only get one shot make it the "Casta Diva" from the Paris recital.
My first intro to opera was Bugs Bunny. Those were cartoons.
I find your analysis of this performance hysterical!!
It's great seeing a mind being "blown"❤❤❤
The Greatness of a Strong Tenor. 💯
Some classical ALRIGHT! Love classical...just thinking about the talented composers from back then, imagining in their head 1st ,then writing down the notes on paper for EACH instrument in a huge symphony Orchestra ( don't know how many would be a typical number) and had it all come together sounding beautiful ???!!! How?? I love classical ,l so admire opera singers they have to be trained on how to breath , project ,etc...they don't just belt it out they are conscious and aware of every part of their breathing, lungs, chest ,vocal cords, throat...amazing talent! And I am 1st and foremost a rock fan 😁☮️
Very often there would be revisions following the premiere. Mahler was still tweaking his first symphony at the time of his death, and the reason "Das Lied von der Erde" sounds so raw is he died without hearing it and making fixes.
I love Pavarotti ❤ when I hear him sing his voice seems to describe what a good man is Strong and Gentle at the same time. Beautiful, a voice that moves me to tears.
The best opera singer singing the best song in opera, what else could you expect!
When this was first broadcast on PBS in America several of the "elderly" people in my life at the time, both family and friends, all commented that these guys were good but none of them were Caruso.
@@davidrichards6509 Caruso is in the GOAT conversation. IIRC the BBC critics had him #2 just ahead of Pavarotti and trailing only Domingo.
Thank you for this. What I appreciated about Pavarotti was, although he was blessed with a beautiful singing voice, he did not hide the fact that to sustain these notes properly and get the right tone, and a whole lot of descriptive musical words that I don't understand, you have to be dedicated and train for years. And as you say, he always left it all on the stage. There are other tenors with beautiful voices, but he also had the passion which was just undeniable. Good morning! Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
As a young child in the early 50’s, I heard a lot of opera. My grandfather was a fan of Enrico Caruso and he had a lot of Caruso’s 78rpm records and would play them a lot.
I did not need to understand one word to feel it. I knew i was listening to greatness.
I was privileged to be able to hear in person and it is breathe taking to hear him. The greatest tenor that ever lived. Pavarotti did 5 returns and set the place on an explosion of applause. ❤
Whenever I watch this I get chills!! I also wonder what he's staring at so intently.? We all know he knows the words already. I like to think that he's staring at an Angel telling him 'You've got this!'. He has a voice sent from Heaven above ❤!
You might wanna check out a video with all three of them ........ incredible!
The first time I saw this entire performance I cried.
The dude had some pipes .. I kinda like it … god gave him some pipes awesome …… 😮❤️❤️❤️love you did this ….
There is not one singer like Pavarotti. He is the greatest tenor of all time. It's not just his vocal skill, it's his delivery and his stage presence. When he walks onto a stage, every woman in the audience pays close attention to his every move and every note. He is totally captivating. It's hard to describe unless you have been in the same room as an opera singer. The volume they sing at hits you in the chest like a punch. It's an overwhelming and powerful feeling to hear that live. I experienced it once and I'll never forget it.
One of the most impressive things is how powerful he can sing without even straining himself. Then, when he really puts his all into it, just WOW!
Only Luciano can bring you to tears with Nessum Dorma
It has always amazed me that opera singers above all others can truly communicate the emotion of what they are singing.
I've watched him sing this song countless times, and it gives me chills every, single, time!
I think it’s just as beautiful an experience to see someone experience this for the first time, as it was the first time I did. This is just masterful, I get chills every time (frisson from music), & I always cry 😭. Great reaction 🙌🖤!
wow! Incredible voice. Have to admire the talent, whatever the genre
His diaphragm and breath control is absolutely incredible.
My eyes tear up and I get goosebumps when I hear his voice. The greatest tenor ever!
I am no opera fan but you cannot help but be moved by his voice and watching you was how I was feeling. We are watching one of the greats.
Those opera hoses in Europe are something else...old,
beautiful
Caruso is a must react to beautiful story
I absolutely love watching people’s first time reactions to this! Everyone gets affected by his performance even if they’re not opera fans. Great reaction!
One of rhe greatest voices of all times, Pavarotti voice projects when needed, with no effort, and a very clean voice. And he also in a few movies.
Thank you BP for this. It's one of my all time favs
Amazing performance! The O face omg 🤣 stop it!
You MUST check out his duet with James Brown
“It’s A Man’s World”
I am so happy for you to have such a new experience. He not only was an extraordinary tenor in the classical realms, but he often collaborated with well respected artists of others as well. It may lead you done a rabbit hole of fun. The warmth of his tone and his emotions, as you witnessed, how he conveyed what the composer for. Any way, cheers and fun along the way.
Every time I see/hear this piece I am in tears. I’m so glad you’ve experienced this performance. It’s perfection! ❤❤❤
The title "Nessum Dorma" literally translates to "LET NO ONE SLEEP". It first premiered in 1926, two years after the original playwrite (Giacomo Puccini) died in 1924. As you probably know, Operas are all about the story itself: In TURANDOT, the story takes place in China and follows the Prince Calaf, who falls in love with the cold Princess Turandot. In order to win her hand in marriage, a suitor must solve three riddles, with a wrong answer resulting in his execution. Calaf passes the test, but Turandot refuses to marry him. He offers her a way out: if she is able to guess his name before dawn the next day, he will accept death.
Nadie duerma
Please Please Please, consider this video with the great Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman, Time To Say Goodbye. That particular video has 106 million views. Deeply emotional.
Yes! That is an, absolute, must!
Totally agree.. Next, how about Sara Brightman singing "Pie Jesu" (aka Requiem)? Love the old version with the young boy singer, Paul Miles-Kingston. It's so beautiful, you'll cry...seriously good.
My favourite!
He is amazing!
I just got tears listening to this! He was one of my favorites! I love your choices !🎉
I like opera more and more. Just the pure singing ability astounds me! People don't give it enough credit.
Phenominal!
The youth of our world has missed out on so much beauty. Especially not knowing of a Master like Luciano Pavarotti and many many others
His face - He knows he nailed it!
I'm sitting here hoping that you will take time reacting to Pavarotti and James Brown singing It's a man's world. Plz?!
Have you reacted to the Pavarotti and James Brown duet “man’s world”?? It’s a must
Luciano is one of my favorite opera singers. He has such an amazing voice.
search for him having a duet with Meatloaf!!!!
And James Brown!
