I always new she was good, but didn't realize how many advanced techniques she uses at her age of nine. And of course this was just the beginning. Keep bring her performances to us.
The truth is she had no training. She was self taught in the main. When had a week of masterclass with Andre prior to this performance. I cry every time I listen to this.
A performance by a ten year old that will forever be TIMELESS !!!!
Amira Willingham has grown into a beautiful woman with even greater vocal talent.
Wow!
She just graduated from high school as valedictorian; headed for a year of world tour before more training.
@@warrengwonka2479 Thatâs great. Congrats to her!
Amira's well-trained soprano's technical prowess is unheard of at the age of 10 - and the voice of an amazing child prodigy is heard. Very early on, Amira's vibrato and squiro virtuosity is miraculous, touching the hearts of listeners and giving the whole audience a standing ovation.
Tara, your reaction was educational and entertaining. Amira is an angel with a most-beautiful voice. I can't help tearing up watching her sing. As a 73 year old pianist, I've accompanied choirs and soloists, but no one like Amira. She is wonderful †!!
Tara, youâre also a beautiful and listening to your reactions to gifted Amira beautiful voice. I canât imagine for a young girl to be counted a soprano. Loved Amira.
She is just amazing,sings like an angel that she is.May.God bless her always.
DEUS ESCOLHE PESSOAS PARA CONFUNDIR O MUNDO , INCRIVEL UMA MENINA DE 9 ANOS CANTAR DESTA FORMA , NĂO E OUTRO SE NĂO DOM DO ALTISSIMO.
Amira hat noch so viele schöne Lieder. Sie singt seit sie neun Jahre alt ist. Sie ist unglaublich. Bitte alle Lieder ansehen. Jetzt ist sie ein Profi und die beste Sopranistin in der heutigen Zeit. Ich freue mich auf ihren Kommentar.
10 years old here. I just Love this girl then and now at 18
That was breathtaking! My father walked me down the wedding aisle to this aria (Charlotte Church version). He loves Puccini and I've always loved this aria. I was captivated and so moved by this. Now, I have to go find and watch the full performance of this. I can't imagine having been present to witness this live and in that setting! And Tara - you're just the real deal. Even though I don't sing. I enjoy your reactions and learn so much!
Thank you for reacting to this I love him I was lucky enough to see him and his orchestra in concert live
I always knew it was beautiful, but interesting how many advanced techniques she use's at this young age. But she has so many additional performances to date. I keep listening over and over. It is always a pleasure and never gets old.
WOW...JUST WOW!!! Iam beyond BLOWN AWAY by Young Ms. Amira!! I went absolutely GAGA over Charlotte Church when I first saw her perform on local television...when she was 12!!!
I learned a lot about technique from your comments, which I found very interesting as I am a big fan of this young lady. To hear a vocal coach critique her technique and find it to be correct was very satisfying. Basically I just listen to her without any personal knowledge of technique. She just moves me emotionally.
My grandpa loves Andre Rieu and Iâve seen this clip! I love the talent he finds for his concerts. Such talent! Sheâs one of my favs! đđ
Amira is insane!! Listen to here Amazing Grace or Flower Duet!! Each day her voice makes me happy!!
Dear Tara I watched your reaction six months ago but never gave a comment. Meanwhile I have been watching a huge other reactions on Amiraâs O Mio Babino in Maastricht at the age of 10 years old. But I must say your reaction is one of the best, maybe even the best reaction. Because except of the enthusiasm you bring up for this young lady, you also make us happy explaining us the techniques step by step very clearly and understandable. Thank you ever so much for thatđ„łđâ„ïžBest wishes for you and your beloved familyâșïž
Thank u! Iâm so glad youâre enjoying my reactions! I appreciate u â€ïž
BLIKSEM !!!! ( AFRIKAANS FOR WOW !! ) HUP AMIRA - THANK YOU TARA FOR YOUR ANALITIC REACTION OF THIS CHILD ANGEL - PLEASE DO MORE REACTIONS OF AMIRA !!!!!!!!
Amira has been my favorite singer for a long time. From the first time I watched her on Holland's got talent and fell in love with Amira as she came out on the stage and how confident and how she was enjoying herself and loved singing for everyone. I have enjoyed watching her grow and mature and have loved all her songs but I must say I have not enjoyed any one as much as I have enjoyed your expertise critiquing her and your knowledge in how you explained the things she was doing as she sang. The one thing I know she sings from her heart and how deeply she feels about what she is singing. She wanted to sing and listened to CZcams and found she loved Opera and listened and learned. She was very young when she started and is 18 now and still is as sweet and talented now . She was 9 when she won Hollands got Talent. I am so glad you found her and hope to see you soon listning and critiquing once again. You have a beautiful voice as well and am going to see if I can find you singing and will love to hear your beautiful voice in song. Thanks so much really enjoyed Tearesa
Thank u so much. If u go to my channel, youâll find some covers Iâve done in a playlist titled One Take Wonders
@@Tarasimonstudios I found you and loved your songs, beautiful. I will love following you and hopefully you critique many more Amira and listning to you. Thank you, Tearesa
So happy you're on the Amira train now Tara! Amira was 10 in this one. She also won Holland's Got Talent the year before this as a self taught Opera Soprano singer. I strongly recommend Amira's "Nella Fantasia" performance from 2016. She hits puberty at this point and her voice just takes off more than this one! Thanks Tara for the amazing reaction and have a blessed day!!!
Wonderful reaction Tara!!!!!!! oved it!!!! Best opera singer reaction ever!!! She had NOOOO training until Andre spent a day with her before she went to the live shows of HGT in 2013. Not sure how many lessons she had between that time and the next summer when she did this performance. She watched the lips and repeated it till she sounded like Maria Callas or whomever she was studying. Yes, Andre does a masterful job of translating Amira to the orchestra. And Amira conducts Andre--nobody else has mentioned this!! She is so much in the music. I have never heard of "covering" till you said it. Amira did it because she saw Maria and or others and tried it till she got the sound they had. That's how she taught herself!!!! Thanks so much for all your knowledge!!
@Paul Derby Thank Heavens you are mentioning this! So many commenters ignore this piece of her history.
@Paul Derby Sorry for my mistake. Thanks for correcting me!!
"she had no training" lol gullible statement. sure whatever the internet says.
Thank you Tara for such a great reaction to Amira who was only 10 years old here! I have subscribed in the HOPE that you do many more reactions to Amira who is now 18 years old, has just graduated High school so her voice is still maturing! Many thanks to her wonderful parents who made sure she had a normal childhood and teenage years while making sure she got the appropriate vocal training and raised her to be a wonderful caring person as well! Amira also sang this song at her HGT audition (before any singing lessons) amazing the judges, and went on to win singing Ave Marie and Nessun Dorma at only 9 years old. Those performances are truly amazing! My all time favourite is still Amira singing Ave Marie (Gomez) at 11 years singing in her local church, czcams.com/video/n66udAMmCDM/video.html
There are many more and ALL are amazing!
Hello, lovely Tara!
I donât know who suggested to react to little Amira (âcause she is almost 18 now) and whoever it was I thank him (her) and of course I thank you for taking that suggestion - you made my day. The last word of the song is âmorirâ (dying), which has two âRâs in it and little Amira had this cutest thing about her âRâs ⊠I donât know if you noticed ⊠anyway, that was also a great part in her advantage besides that covering technique you mentioned.
I was so happy to see you again with your hair arranged in that Russian style - thanks for that too.
From Romania, with love âŠ
I think the Masterclass Andre arranged for her has paid dividends for sure! And now we all get to benefit from that!
Beautiful !! Both visually and vocally!
Thank you Tara for React to Amira's perform and your Comments describing her Vocal Technic was perfectly explained, thats why I wanted you hear her, I hope you React to more of her Songs cuz she is Amazing Stunning and Beautiful Sweet Girl, from Netherland BTW, not from Denmark..... Thank you again Tara and Congratulations for your Channel and for your Vocal Talent and all your Knowledge on Music.... You are an Amazing Singer đđđ
Thank u love! I appreciate u â€ïž
well my friend, your the best i have seen giving me more understanding of her voice. i call her angel amira because she has the best voice i have ever heard. i know she has not started her singing destiny yet.
Amira is widely considered the best singer in the world. Over 1 billion fans. Also receiving a 10,000 standing ovation at the age of 9. On Hollands got talent.
At 19 she is all grown up now. She has only gotten better!
The best thing is, she doesnt even have to try to reach those notes. Shes just that good
Over 1 billion fans
Over 3 billion views
Lol, where are all these 1 billion fans when she hardly can sell out a local small theatre.
@@yogajedi3337 Hee back again!
@@yogajedi3337 Not a billion fans but a billion views she has!
Tara, I loved this reaction with your excellent technical insights and your delight in Amira's excellence. Interestingly, to me at least, you are the first reactor (of the ones I have seen, and they are many) to note that in fact Andre was taking a lot of cues from Amira as he directed the orchestra. I thought that as well and am happy to have you prove me correct!đI am subscribing in hopes that you will give us more excellent Amira reactions soon. I'm sure that you will have lots of recommendations from other commenters so I won't bother for now.
Thank you for a great reaction and analysis of this masterpiece by our Vocal Princess! She is now 18, better than ever, and just as beautiful in her heart, soul, unselfish generosity, and character values as she is outwardly.
A very nice reaction. Very knowledgeable, very technical, very understandable to one and all. Thanks for this.
Tara! You are the perfect complement to react to, and more importantly, explain the amazing details of the angelic work of Amira in this performance. Iâve watched this video many times before but seeing it now with you is really something. My hat is off to you for your passionate and informed reaction and review. I so appreciate competence and ability in people who know their trade and profession well. You and Amira are such great examples of this. Thank you for enabling me to enjoy Amiraâs performance even more!
Thank you so much Alan. That means a lot â€ïž
An absolutely first class reaction Tara. It is so refreshing to listen to a Reactor that actually knows what theyâre talking about & to explain to the viewers the finer points of the artistâs performance. First time listener & have immediately subscribed to your Chanel.
I see you tend not to reply to the viewers comments, but am asking you to give at least a thumbs up if you intend to continue with future Amira reactions.
There is one point that is often missed. That is that Amira is Dutch & this Aria is in Italian, so we have a ten y.o having to learn & understand the lyrics of a completely foreign language, & then to put so much passion into it is mind boggling.
Cheers Graeme
Fincent gives her the pronunciation.
Her brother, Fincent, is essential to her other language singing.
So many people say young people canât sing opera because theyâre voice is so young. But there always exceptions. You can tell sheâs singing with ease. Thereâs no tension to straining. And she doesnât do the classic thing that some children do where they push the larynx down to sound more mature. I think thatâs where problems start
Tara your voice is also very good. I am not an professional but I can hear that too. So on point and accurate. đ btw Amiras video is one of the best videos I ever saw.
This is by a mile the best covering of Amira's talents I have seen so far. And yes, Maastricht in the very south of the Netherlands is so non-comparable to the rest of the country that it makes you wonder how it ended up there and maintained its uniqueness over the centuries. The Dutch sometimes refer to it as the Paris of the North, in my humble opinion it beats Paris in any regard. On one of her last interviews on Dutch TV (Gelderland) she claims it's actually not her singing, just being an instrument for some other force, which makes you wonder why Maria and Amira share the same syllables. She's said it before and sometimes its almost visible when she ends a song and returns to the "normal" young lady she is.
Just so you know, when I used to play in my dad's band live, we had all kinds of visual queues we would give each other so that we could improvise certain things.
So gorgeous! Thank you
A great overall reaction! She's got a bright future ahead of her. Her voice is beautiful!
Tara another reason why I love watching your videos: those little priceless tips that you give!
Taking a breath in to stop a high note cleanly sounds like magic, but it works!
Thank you one more for your awesome teaching spirit and upbeat attitude.
Thank u love. And yay! So glad youâre finding the tips helpful!
@@Tarasimonstudios Maybe you should please consider recording yourself singing an aria (not necessarily the whole) using just your classical technique.
I know you have the acting chops a as well for expression of the lyrics so seeing you in that context would be fun.
Do you take classes tailored towards more classical /crossover-oriented students?
This was absolutely beautiful! This little girl is so gifted and focused on delivering an excellent performance.đđđ
Thank you for the best analisis of Amira's talent and beatiful voice I've seen in YT, her quallities are incomparable and unique to none, she is truly a gift from Heavens for the humanity!!!
OMG she is absolutely amazing love you're veidos
8:58 Look at this man's face. He's having the same experience that I do every time I listen to this performance.
Wonderful and very insightful review. Isn't Amira just amazing? 10 years old with such technique.
Thank you Tara for such an enthusiastic reaction to Amira... Truth is though, this is pretty much the universal reaction to hearing Amira for the first time!
And, yes, this performance is spectacular!
Amira is eighteen now (ten at the time of this performance) and recently graduated high school. This dear lady has continued to improve her singing all the way through and her technique and control is pretty flawless now! Many very informed people regard her as almost peerless, even at eighteen, in the world of the lyric soprano! Sounds crazy I know!
Even for yourself, irrespective of posting videos, you owe it to yourself to watch the prodigious amount of material on CZcams documenting this young lady's progression. IMHO many of her performances throughout her teens stand as the new standard for those arias... Again it seems crazy to say this of someone so young! Yet, I believe that many of those performances will only be bettered by Amira herself when she revisits them periodically!
In addition it is well worth discovering all you can about Amira when she is not singing! No spoilers here! You will discover that she is not only remarkable when on stage...
I wish you many many happy and joyous hours discovering a truly rare individual: Amira Willighagen!
Best reaction I have ever found to an amazingly gifted singer. She is self taught off CZcams videos for her audition on "Hollands got Talent" with only one masterclass with Andre prior to this performance at age 9.
I love love love all the very informative little technical details you give us about how Amira performs. Imagine a 10 year old having such great technique as you described. Thank you for a very good reaction!!
Not a dry eye in that audience, and rightfully so, she is incredible!
She won Holland Got Talent at age 9. NO TRAINING. Sang along with CZcams videos.
Thank you itâs very good to here and understanding the teknik she has. Many who react to her talk about the teknik but never explain it, so again thank you.
Amira is absolutely fantastic she's an angel from God Amira wonderful
Oops, I forgot to mention that I agree with other comments that her performance of ââAve Maria by Gomezââat the Canisius Church at age eleven is even more mind boggling.
Cheers Graeme
I knew nothing about the physical mechanics of talented opera singers like Amera, until your VERY excellent professional analysis. Learning about the coordination between Conductor Andre and Amera made this video a whole lot more educational and enjoyable. Many Thanks Tara!
I feel your reaction is one of the best reactions Iâve heard to Amira. Iâm puzzled why you havenât done more. Many more so beautiful songs she has produced.
What a great reaction, and what a talent!! Tara, as an Aussie I would love it if you react to John Farnham's Help Live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. What till you hear Australia's favourite best singer!!! Stay sweet.
Effortless perfection...... Amira is an angel sent from heaven for our listening pleasure.
I recommended this to you some time ago, I don't know if this video is based from that recommendation but I thank you for finally reacting to Amira.
When you consider she is only about 10 or 11 years old when this video was made coupled with the fact that she is self taught, she taught herself to sing opera from youtube videos, her skill is astounding.
Even if you don't make a video on it you need to go and watch the original audition on Holland's Got talent, there is a version out there with english subtitles, she absolutely blows the judges away and goes on to win that year.
Your reaction is excellent !
Such a beautiful voice! Loved the reaction! I think it would be fantastic if you would react to Everything All At Once live at st marks cathedral by SYML. Absolutely ethereal, and they donât get the attention they deserve! Canât wait for more reactions! â€
I have enjoyed your reaction to this amazing girl multiple times. Sure wish you would do more of her beautiful career. I see you only got over 50,000 hits on this oneđ
Stunning performance as always
So many great tips, thank you!!
There is another video where Amira seems to deliver a piece with amazing control, it's the Ave Maria Gomez, which she sang in 2015, aged 11. Would love it if you could give it an assessment.
WOW I am so glad I fell into your reaction. I am so impressed by you, subscribed immediately....lol
Thank u Ken. Welcome to my Tarabyte family â€ïž
I canât sing a note; but I so love listening to those who can. I do love your Chanel more than most. I love that you are so enthusiastic about other singers. Thank you. X
Hi Tara love your reaction and would be very interested in hearing your reaction to Amira singing Ave Maria (Gomes) it is a recording that is done on a phone or camcorder in a church with all her family accompanying her (father on church organ, brother on violin and mother on recorder) apparently she sings this aria in Spanish also I recommend her singing âin the stars â written in memory of her late grandmother and âSong to the moonâ but the fact is this young woman has the ability to sing anything and has a big future ahead of her.
Andre always gives concerts in Maastricht each year so you are welcome
I absolutely love your reaction and input. What I would be very interested in is an explanation and example of the differences in sopranos.
Truly beautiful đ
Amazing that a 10 year old has such vocal maturity.
Agree đ€Ż
She had her lungs by already being a winning distance runner. Her smarts showed up by graduating High School recently as a Valedictorian.
Beautiful singer slot of God given talent
She was 9 years old when winning Holland Got Talent. This was just a few months later, I believe she turned 10 years old by this time.
You need to watch (the full video, please) her debut performance on Holland's Got Talent (that she wins, by the way!) with this same song. Only later did she start taking classes... first she learned on her own by watching videos at home!!!! If I'm not mistaken, the interval between her debut and the performance with the wonderful Andre Rieu was only 6 months (in other words, she had still studied very little, officially speaking). She tells the jury that her brother was going to play the violin at church and she wanted to present something too. That's why she started watching music videos on CZcams, she really liked the opera performances and she started trying to imitate it at home, and she learned, but without any professional guidance, simple as that!! Absolutely incredible! A true gift!!! And she says that her dream was to sing with him, and people got in touch, sent him the video and he accepted!! Splendid!!!!!
Her audition was on August 31, 2013. It was not broadcast until October, 2013. The semi-final and final of HGT were in the last week of 2013. She got a recording contract with SONY in January 2014, and a vocal coach ( Maike ) and started working on her first album, which she recorded in February 2014. The Andre Rieu performance was on July 12, 2014, so you are mistaken. Hope this helps.
True story god send angel to the world
Thank you for this react. Tara plsss react to Emma Kok and Andreu Reiu..Plsss very macht. Thank you â€â€
Hi Tara and Thank you for all grate reaction videos! I just watched Emma Kok singing Voilâa and wow it was realy good. Can you please react to this live performance. All the best.
This was breathtaking . Tara, can you give a reaction on the new talent of Anfre Rieu , Emma Kok with the song Voila
Beautiful and if you know that she had never singing lessons before she won Holland got talent ................... fill in :)
She learned to sing by watching people singing opera on CZcams. I think she was 7/8 when she turned up on Netherlands got talent (I think) or the voice or something of that ilk. She sang the same song there, sheâd never sung in public before. I think Iâm right in saying that when asked what she wanted to do when she grew up there was no mention of singing, I think she said she wanted to take part in the olympics
Wow!!!
She did Hollands got talent about 6 months before this performance, when she was still 9. Andre gave her a little coaching, but he admits he is not a vocal coach, most of Amira''s skill was inate talent, and assiduously watching and copying opera singers on the Internet.
@@andrewclayton4181 Wow!
Linzi, she did say she wanted to be a singer OR an Olympic athlete.
@@cmlarose50 Yes. She was a nationally ranked cross country runner in Holland at the age of 8. She was also competative after moving to South Africa. This may be part of the excplanation for her exceptional breath control.
Tara, I encourage you to react to her debut audition from Hollands Got Talent before she had vocal lessons.
â„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïž beautiful â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
At this time Amira has not had any training....only when she relocated to South Africa she had vocal training...few years later....only "training" she had was watching original songs on CZcams
Amazing for one so young to know what she wants and goes for it with a real work ethic and be able to take on advice and actually do it. Probably being a winning cross country runner helped with her breathing too.
And her brains graduated her from high school as a Valedictorian.
She's 18 now, but yes she was 9 or 10 there.
Tara, I am Dutch and i'am very proud to Amira. She is fantastic. Her latest songs are even more beautiful. Another seggestion: Listen to Sissel KyrkjebÞ ( with José Carreras When You Tell Me That You Love) Slow down with the Tabernacle Choire and much more other beautiful songs. She is brilliant!!
She learned it listening to a radio at home, she got a gold buzzer in the voice Holland or Belgium....she amazed the audience then as sh
Shes 17 or 18 years old now and still unbelievable voice, check her out...from 10 to 18, as I said listen to opera on the radio at home and sounds like this...guess she might have taken listens later on but don't know, at 10 just sing opera listening to a radio...ready.
Thanks, Tara. Hope you will continue with Amira. She was 10 at this time, 19 now. You might try another aria, Nessun Dorma (CIG 2017), or her school concert 2018.
I believe that the comment by the Dutch Judge was correct, she IS an old soul.
I believe that she's Maria Callas come back to us again. I only đ that she has a MUCH happier life this time.
I am not a singer but a violinist andlistener to classical since 10 years old, but probably even earlier since my parents were classical/opera fanatics before my birth and I probably got a good dose even in the womb. That said, I went from Sutherland to Callas and lately have found Leyla Gencer, as great as Callas (I believe) but not much recognized (She was Turkish and did not have the media machine behind her, I gather.) What do you opera buffs out there know of her? Let me know. Also, Ms Tara, do you have an opinion about Leyla? I am seeing more and more videos on Leyla lately.
I see no one even close to Di Stefano these days, but I am quite prejudiced as I view Di Stefano as one who sang as if the present song were going to be his last, I mean he seemed to spill his guts in almost every performance.
Your reaction please refer to - REACTION: Amira Willighagen Flower Duet Live 2017 I believe Amira is 14 yrs old and itâs a duet with Laura Breton. There is another duet performance but with another performer, but of the two, I like this one best performing with Laura Breton.
The one in 2017 Amira was 13 and it was with Corjea Bertha. It was a great performance
I've followed Amira for quite a while. I'm interested to see if you do too! I enjoyed your reaction and found it quite informative. đđ
She's actually self-taught at that point. At the moment She's 20 yo and did have additional training.
You are talking about her great technique in this video, but at this time at had not have any singing lessons at all. It is self thought by watching CZcams videos. Even more amazing!
You're wrong! She had no lessons prior to her Audition for HGT on August 31, 2013. After that, she got a "Master class" with Andre on December 7, 2013. After her victory at HGT, she got a recording contract with SONY and a singing coach, Maike van der Weile, and set about recording her first album - she received the first disc on her 10th birthday (March 27, 2014). Her concert with Andre was on July 11/12, 2014.
Okay, Now you have to react to her sing the Sound of Music medley, her Amazing Grace cover, O Sole Mio with Patrizio Buanne, and the Flower Duet with Corlea Botha. It will be fun watching your reaction. BTW, she was 10 when she sang above. She taught herself to sing by listening to CZcams videos. She did start taking lessons after she won Holland's Got Talent.
2:33 Unicorns farting rainbows? LOL I was glad to see you react to Amira. I love her. Could you do a reaction to Singer 47, a Korean singer from a Korean talent show called Sing Again? I wish I knew or remembered her name, but you can find her by searching for "singer 47".
She is amazing, check out Emma kok too
As a 56 year old man who started singing 2 years ago I love singing this.
I needed to practice and learn the words better.
But I have the range just NOT the techniques
Beautiful music and vocals.
It would be really nice to see you react to QueensRyche 1984 live performance of Take Hold Of The Flame. As well as Falling In Reverse,â Iâm Not a Vampire ( Revamped ) video . Both incredible performances.
