    The count tenor did not receive classical training. He was a research chemist five years ago. He always had a dream about music, but he couldn't achieve it. He debut as a team through a TV audition called Phantom Singer. He then quit his job and became a singer. He has really crazy talent. And all Forestella member too.

    "This is like Dimash stuff here" cracked me up. I got no idea what Forestella fans think of Dimash but I do know a lot of my fellow Dimash Dears really like Forestella.
    There is so many male classical crossover quartets and to be honest I think some of them are a little bit boring (they sing nice but that's it). Forestella on the other hand I really like, their voices stands out, the bass adds so much to the group, their versatility and song choices are great and they really put on a show. Great reaction!

To me Dimash is the best singer in the world and Forestella the best vocal group in the world. Big claim but I feel that they can back it up :)

    As I understand it; the Bass and the Tenor are classically trained. The Tenor { Lyric-Tenor?} - with that rapid vibrato, was head hunted to and sang for a time with the Milan Opera, before returning to South Korea. The Bari-Tenor, has a background in Pop and Musical Theatre, BUT the one that really blows my mind is the Counter-Tenor, who has no professional training in music, but was an {Tertiary trained) Industrial Chemist! His performance in Hijo De La Luna will blow YOUR mind, and that piece also really showcases that gorgeous Bass vocal as well. Much like Pentatonix, not only are their voices a magical blend, but their arrangements take care to let each individual singer shine. 😍😃

  • @undead.rising
    @undead.rising Před rokem +66

    This was performed over 3 years ago, so since Ko Worrim (the bass) is 27 now, he would be only 24, or maybe only 23 at the time. I didn't know someone could have such a developed bass voice like that at such a young age!

    Hi Peter. Ko Wo Rim, the bass, trained at the Seoul National University. Cho Mingyu, the next man to sing "Mama", took his classical training at the same university. He calls himself a leggiero tenor. When he was working on hes master's degree, he met Ko Woorim. The third man, Bae Doohoon, studied acting at Korea's National University of Arts. The fourth man, Kang Hyungho, studied chemical engineering at Busan Yniversity. He has no formal voice training that I am aware of---he was working at a petrochemical plant when he auditioned at Phantom Singer contest in 2017. The four of them make wonderful harmony! They have many performances on CZcams. Kang Hyungho is a not trained countertenor. I do like that you, a well-trained singer, hear so much more than I do. I learn.

    • @manaciel
      @manaciel Před rokem +38

      Slight addition for Kang HyungHo's info. He majored chemical engeenering at Busan "National" University (so all 4 are from national university quite elites) and worked as research chemist in Samsung BP chemical. Samsung sold the chemical industry to Lotte and that made HyungHo have more day-offs than under Samsung so he could participate in Phantom Singer 2 audition. It's very interesting HyungHo got promoted even while his audition in Phantom Singer 2. Even after his debut, the company offered him 1 year's leave of absence exceptionally and he wrote 3 papers on chemical themes working as Forestella.
      He never introduced himself as a countertenor, always he said "tenor and taking charge in countertenor range", now introducing himself as a tenor and soprano range. I heard countertenor singing is chest voice falsetto unlike HyungHo has head voice falsetto. I don't know if it's wrong to call HyungHo as a countertenor for this reason.

    He's not actually a counttenor, he's a complete rocker. But a monster vocal capable of counter tenor! 😄
    His solo albums are full of rock music.
    He tells his story through writing and composing.
    He is an excellent musician enough to be in charge of producing and directing within Forestella.
    He was a chemist who was researching a secret national project at a large chemical company. He stayed as a researcher, but was full of passion for his music, so he played as a rocker in an amateur band.
    It was a great gift for us that he became a singer after winning the audition. I admire his enthusiasm, hard work and tremendous talent every day.♥️♥️♥️

    Some of the musical talents coming out of Korea are absolutely crazy.

    • @hildommar
      @hildommar Před 9 měsíci +5

      Actually May I make a slight update on Kang HyungHo… was never a regular office guy ….he is actually a chemical research engineer by training and who worked for 4 years in that capacity at a company owned by Samsung who then sold it to Lotte… I’ve seen the video on You Tube stating he was an office worker.. it’s not accurate. Let’s try and get them to update their video. Kang Hyung Ho, just like the other 3 members, deserves much respect for what he has achieved, despite no Formal musical training. He has been involved in music and even won music comps since middle school right thru to the band he joined at work. He has been tirelessly doing a tremendous amount of self-development whilst also concurrently pursuing his growing success as Pitta…his music act outside Forestella. Hope you find this as fascinating as I did if you’re not already aware of this .😊

      No, it's not the change of voices, even any rookie like Marcelo Pomoy does it.
      It is the lack of the difficult lyrical technique marked, rounded in his head voice (imposition with low larynx) that the song requires. opting
      By a head voice
      "Simple/Lightweight" airy pop style and easy to handle the high notes.
      In the middle register it is linear without vibrato.
      And their belt is pushed, with poor chordal closure, due to how steep and irregular the lines appear in the FFT spectrum images.
      And his notes are not even 40% close to the 293.7 Hz vibrations per second
      Value considered as
      Perfect tone/tuning.
      And so many more aspects. All those subtle details not perceptible to any human ear, even the most expert, are scientifically measurable parameters,
      Through digital measurement engineering tools: FFT spectral imaging, the most advanced form of vocal analysis,
      even far superior to placing a camera in the throat💯

    I really liked your comment on Mingyu's vibrato, the one you said sounded like his voice was shimmering. I didn't hear it in that way, but it definitely made me appreciate that part more.
    As for Hyungho, the counter tenor, he is not trained. The other 3 are. Hyungho has experience being in a rock band in college, but beyond that all of his music experience came during/after the show that formed forestella in 2017. Before that he worked as a chemist.
    The members are as follows:
    - Woorim - operatic bass
    - Mingyu - operatic tenor
    - Doohoon - musical actor. Somewhere between tenor and baritone I believe.
    - Hyungho - rock singer. Tenor/counter tenor.

      I don't know what exactly "trained" means in this text. I know HyungHo is a self-taught type of genius and didn't have any professional vocal training. But DooHoon (I'll say DH because we have so many "he" in this male quartet lol) wasn't classically trained either. DH majors in acting and basically an actor. DH is the most mysterious one in this group. As far I know DH sang as vocalist in fusion KukAk (Korean traditional music) band Soriya, 연후애 YeonHooAe and AUX. And while on the military service participated in the Voice Korea 2, went up to semifinal live. With DH's singing the famous number This is the Moment from the musical Jekyll and Hyde at the semifinal round he became debut as a musical actor. DH had 5 years career as a musical actor when he auditioned at Phantom Singer 2 where made all 4 members bound to this group Forestella. I think DH is another type of genius and very talented, dedicating so much in harmonizing. Maybe DH can be considered as "trained" in musical theater. But for me DH is one of non-classical vocals / rock duo (DH and HH had a rock duo concert together) like HyungHo. DH goes closer to pop singer while HH goes rocker tho. It's very wonderful to have these non-classical members in this classical crossover quartet. That diverses the group color more versatile like the classic vocal members also doing great job in pop songs reducing operatic tones.

      @@manaciel By "trained" I mean formally taught, regardless of genre. Hyungho is self-taught (at least pre-phantom singer). Doohoon, as you mentioned, is a musical actor plus originally debuted in a gugak crossover band. So he does absolutely have vocal training, it's just not opera.

      @@kais.9829 I don't know if his acting major faculty has some classes for singing. He said he was in acting club when he was a middleschooler and he had a big fun doing it. That made him suddenly decide the acting major in his last year as a highschooler just before the summer vacation. He studied quite well and he was in charge of the president of student body (it could be his 2nd grader time BTW) in the high-school so his decision might have surprised people around him.

    Please do more!! I haven't found an arrangement of theirs I don't love. Ko, the basso profundo and Cho are both professional opera trained. Cho is the groups leader. The counter tenor, Kang (who calls himself a te-prano!) has had NO training! He's a chemist! And his range is phenomenal! Then there's Bae, the baritone. He is a professionally trained musical theatre guy. You didn't hear much of him here but you will in some of their other arrangements. He does a killer version of Gethsemane that literally leaves you in tears...no matter what your faith! As you can tell, I'm really loving this group! Thanks for introducing us to them! More please!!! They do a seriously beautiful version of Inner Universe from Ghost in the Shell! Again...thanks for helping us find this incredible group!!!

    Thank you for taking the time to listen, appreciate, and break down 2 of Forestella's covers! It's particularly interesting to hear your perspective on Kim Woorim's (the bass singer) skills and technique, as an operatic bass yourself. I learned some new things today, thank you!
    And yeah, Forestella isn't EXACTLY a kpop group; mostly since they don't really have a mainstream sound. But they do market themselves in a similar manner, with the elaborate album packages and promos. They perform on a lot of the same music broadcast channels in Korea as most kpop idol groups, as well.
    Forestella just released a new original EP called "UTOPIA" literally a week ago. The music video is an art piece in itself, that perfectly aids in the storytelling of the track, but they have performed it live too. Some comments under the upload of the live performance by those who were actually in the audience, note that the impact of the members' live voices and their stage presence upstaged the recorded track lol. I really do believe it's their best original song to date.
    They leaned sooo hard into drama of opera for Utopia and it's such an amazing aural experience. They really outdid themselves! I would recommend giving it a listen on your own time, at least, if you don't plan on doing another to them for a while.

    They do so many different genres. Classical, rock, ballad, pop, tango, jazz, trot, folk, K-pop, and countless other genres are challenged, but surprisingly, they all transform perfectly into their own colors. They are excellent at putting on their own colors without losing the essence of the original song.
    I recommend Shape of You, Je Suis Malade, Hijo de la Luna, and Time in a Bottle for the next songs.
    Keep listening to their music. You will never regret it.♥️

    the leggiero tenor at 7:37, cho mingyu, (where you talked about vibrato) is also an opera singer. last time i posted woorim's opera performances, but mingyu has an entire youtube channel with amazing performances of opera as well as songs from musicals and movies:
    www.youtube.com/@whalsrb88/videos
    the countertenor, kang hyungho, is a freak of nature because he is the only member of the group who had no professional training before the group formed. he was the front man of an amateur garage band, he also has his own youtube channel with his solos:
    www.youtube.com/@pitta8040
    the final member is bae doohoon, the baritenor. he is a musical actor. unfortunately his solo stages from musicals are hard to come by. they don't seem to do cast recordings in korea and they are strict about zapping illicit recording of musicals. however there are tons of fancams of forestella concerts!
