I didn't realize how universally applicable this song is until I heard it sung on it's own by a baritone.
It's still seeing a middle aged man maybe older singing an aria meant for a tempting gypsy girl basically flirting.
@@cerebrummaximus3762 I've never personally seen Carmen played by a woman younger than her thirties. And as a middle aged woman myself, I see nothing wrong with middle aged men singing flirtatious songs.🙂
@@professorlilith5933 Fair point. My emphasis was on "man", but "Old" too I guess. It just feels weird him playing the role of Carmen?
I thought so too at first, and then I started paying attention to the lyrics more than usual. Maybe that says more about my love life than the song itself.
@@professorlilith5933 I can relate to your comment, currently sadly single too haha! But to be fair, when you have an existing image of a character in your head, whether it is in a film, book or opera, it feels off when you see somebody completely different playing that role. That might just be my method of cope :/
Everybody there got the most beautiful gift of opera for absolutely nothing
As it should be to be honest. It shouldn't be exclusive to those who are wealthy
@@MrMyers758 That doesn't mean that people have to get it "for absolutely nothing". But it should be made affordable for people who are not that well-off.
Simply great. Let's honor that.
@@LoGStein Affordable is a matter of degree. Someone who can't afford to properly feed their family cannot afford ANY price for this luxury, and so it doesn't benefit those who are most in need of elation
@@MrMyers758 Yes okay, but the fact that people can't afford to properly feed their family is a problem in and of itself that should be solved anyway. And if it was solved, it would be fine that poorer families get access to cultural events at a substantial discount.
(and also thanks to the internet poorer people still have the opportunity to listen to Opera online, it's not the same, but it's certainly not nothing)
The Man has a lovely voice - but what I love more is seeing the spontaneous interplay between the two musicians - each reading the other for the expressiveness of the piece.
@Syd McCreath maybe, maybe not - but I've seen enough impromptu jam sessions (since I'm also a musician) to know what I'm looking at.
@Syd McCreath You went on a completely unrelated rant about animal abuse under a video about two musicians performing together
I don't think so
I totally agree, this is very good music performance BUT OMG this is so obvious a set up it made me cringe a little
unfortunately most of the videos of this type that he posts are fake. still cool though !
Wow, I just heard a man sing an aria written for a mezzo soprano.
I know! Wonderful!!!
You can just sing it in the octave you are more comfortable with.. of course, the man is also good at singing.
@@RAl2O3 Sure. I'm used to hearing Fredrica von Stade sing Cherubino. So it wouldn't surprise me to know that a countertenor sang a female role. But I'd never expect a baritone or a bass to sing an aria a mezzo performs during Carmen. I'm not criticizing the man for singing a mezzo aria. But it's strange to hear him do that when I'm a purist.
Since I'm a purist, I usually hate modernist operatic productions, including the Peter Sellers one where Don Giovanni "because" a cocaine addict standing on a Harlem sidewalk where he wore only his briefs.
Patricia Raceme sang superbly in Minghella's production of Madama Butterfly, I thought, But I disliked the minimalist sets and the costumes. But I love each second of the movie version of Butterfly with King Huang and Richard Trowel, partly because the sets were rLISTIC AND THE COSTUMES SEEMED JAPANESE.
If I produced an opera, my first question would be, "What would delight the composer and the librettist? What would they have wanted it to be like." Sincgers can honor composers with superb performances and maybe even a play roles more convincingly than anyone else has played them. But if I were Mozart attending Sellers's Don Giovanni, I'd feel at least disappointed.
@@rhosllwyd2863 He sang wonderfully. But the arias still sounded strange to me when he sang it, and wouldn't want any male singer to portray Carmen in Bizet's opera.
Everyone is amazed that a baritone is singing a mezzo aria. I’m amazed that he knew the words, so this is clearly something he has sung before or even frequently. Well done!
the power of music..connecting strangers completely..he's got amazing operatic voice...
1.4k likes no comments!? Imma change that 🙃
His French is great, his performance of an aria normally outside his range was stellar and yes, I’d love to hear more. 😊
Easy for a Frenchman😉
Yes I realized after 🤣. The rest still stands…
I'm very impressed he knows all the words to a female aria. Ahh and his voice is like butter.
@@sarahm5936 it's staged (you can see the same singer on some other videos of the same guy), so, of course, he knows ;-)
Not really outside his range since he's a bariton, so singing 1 full octave down suffices, no need to transpose. It would be harder if he was a bass or a tenor.
I love how they both know there's a slight tempo change coming up and telepathically bring both of themselves in and out of it back into the original tempo even tho they have both never met each other in their life.
You seriously Think this is not staged :D sweet, haha
@@elestra1504 r/nothingeverhappens
Not likely
@@wesleybuckwalter2558 if you had the slightest idea what they teach in music school you wouldn’t have said that
These tempo changes are 'classical', and you can see the piano player looking at the singer to sync
It makes me proud that young people enjoy listening to great music. I wonder who the man was. He was amazing and so was the young man playing the piano. 👍👏👏
oh you can be sure that as long as there is access to good music, some people no matter their age will find it. Or maybe the good music finds them, heh.
🎁&🎁...AMAZING *UPLIFT*
🗣&🎹...BRAVO❣BRAVO❣

I went to graduate business school with an opera singer. He said he had studied with Placido Domingo. Since this was before the internet, there was no way to check this out. So, I decided, in front of our study group, to ask him to sing something all the while thinking he would bail. He paused for a moment and then opened his mouth. And what came out was short of amazing. We all told him he shouldn’t waste his time in business school but should sing full time. For a moment he teared up. Later, when the study group had left and we were alone I asked him why he seemed upset by what the study group had said. He told me that his dream was to sing, but he neither had the money to pursue it nor the support of his wife. He wound up dropping out of business school and moved to Michigan to run his family’s cemetery business.
😳😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔 What a HORRIBLE wife!!!!!
That's so sad
Ohh how sad. I Hope at least he could have a channel on YT so I could be a suscriber 😢
WIFE shit on your dreams right there - Jokoy
That makes me so incredibly sad.
He hit that high note and I just got goosebumps. Thank you, both.
I love how he asked for your permission to sing! He was so polite by not trying to steal your time ❤
Nah he shouldve jumped right in. Maximum surprise factor is best.
Wow! So refreshing to hear this sung by a guy, let alone a guy with a fab operatic baritone voice! Don't get me wrong, I love hearing the mezzo gals, but it's seldom heard from a guy. Bravo, to both of you! Well-played and well-sung!🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love how you can see his breathing apparatus at work (the singer, I mean of course, haha). The chest is high when he is supporting and the gut is in when he is suspending his air, indicating that the abdominal muscles are at work. Really nice video!
It's called a diaphragm.
@Mellie Are you referring to the abdominal muscles or the gut? (Both of which are the same). The diaphragm is at work too but we don't actually have any control over it, due to it being an involuntary muscle. You have control over your intercostals and your abdominal (even the latter kind of work on their own of your setup is correct) and the diaphragm will suspend the air when you have proper control of both. You may already know this, so sorry if I'm preaching to the choir (no pun intended).
@@cristinaevans2318 a common misconception among musicians! Check any medical anatomy/physiology text. if the thoracic diaphragm were involuntary (like the heart or intestines), you could not control your breathing at all. There is a respiratory center of the brain that acts as an automatic pacemaker and can override conscious control, but the muscle itself is voluntary.
This guy rules! You can see it on his face once he heard the first few notes that he realized "now's my chance!" This makes me smile. Thank you, piano dude, for probably making this random opera guy's day!
Le baryton s’appelle Jacques-François Loiseleur-des-Longchamps. J’ai eu l’occasion de l’écouter lors d’un de ses concerts sur Paris 👍🏽
Merci! 😊
Thank you

James Francis the Birdcatcher of Longfields. French names are fun…
Wow. He is French. that's why he hadn't accent
This man has an unexpectedly pleasant voice of Opera 👏 and you play the piano awesomely and goes well with the singer 👌 though that piano NEEDS to be tuned right by technician 😅
Not just tuned but voiced. The hammers are not of a consistent hardness.
Yes!
So beautiful! Would make my entire month if I stumbled upon such a performance in a supermarket.
EDIT: Two months after I wrote this, I stumbled upon such a performance in a pedestrian area in a town I was visiting and it DID make my entire month. Just two opera singers doing a free performance outside. Marvellous!
Right?!?!
I've never heard opera singing in person for more than like 15 seconds, god how I'd love to see something like this in public
como se llama esta puta cancion joder
When I saw Carmen at the lyric opera in chicago, I could not even begin to tell you how amazing the singing was. The most impressive part was how loud they were. You see, this opera house is very old. There were a grand total of zero amplifiers, mics, or even headpieces. I was in the TOP BALCONY and I could hear everything so clearly. It was truly impressive
Fabuleux! ❤ Avec des talents comme vous dans ce supermarché, il faut vraiment que la direction fasse quelque chose pour ce piano!
Translation to English, with respect: "Fabulous! ❤ With talents like you in this supermarket, management really needs to do something about this piano!"
The piano is still in shock
OMG! ❤❤❤. This was awesome! Oooh, there is SO much talent in the world! What a joy.
Yes, of course we want this lovely man to sing more!
Applaus for both the pianist as the singer that they stayed on tune despite this piano.
It’s time someone fixes this instrument or donates a new one. Or ask the audience for donations.
Accompanist was brilliant. Especially if they had not performed together before. Loved it!!!😅
This is Wolfgang Saus, I believe. He's got multiple amazing videos showcasing overtone singing. What an honor to meet him!
Jacques-François Loiseleur-des-Longchamps
@@Solitude11-11 Thanks!
I sang this as my first full length solo when I was 12!! I have no clue why they picked it since it obviously wasn't age appropriate but I worked on it for a month, got a standing ovation and had a ton of fun!!
He's a great singer, do more videos with him
I love everything about this clip. 2 complete strangers bringing their individual talents together at the drop of a hat, received by a more than interested crowd. Bravo to you both.
Very impressive! The both of you. Both playing on a piano that isn't in the best shape as well as the guy whipping that out seemingly with no prior warm up
Very nice. I never once was out shopping and noticed anyone playing opera with a spontaneous opera singer bursting into song. I would have enjoyed that💕
Absolutely beautiful 🤩 i seen this song many years ago when i was a kid watching the movie “unleashed by jet li/danny the dog” and the sound and melody always stuck in the back off my mind and i never knew what it was called until today.
That was amazing. Definitely record some more videos with that man and his majestic voice. You guys are an amazing duo.
I love how excited the guy got as he started walking by 😄😄
Absolutely love the happiness on his face as he sings.
Music is for everybody. No income bracket, age, culture, race, or religious divisions. If it touches your soul, then it is right for you.
Awesome, just awesome. Thanks for sharing this beautiful performance ❤️
Watching the spontaneous reaction to fine art and wanting to play along is exactly what art in public places is for! I love this! So cool of you to share the spotlight with folks who see you out ❤
They're both having such a grand time, you can see it on their faces 👏👏👏 bravo!
He has great control of his voice. Bravo to both of you.
bravo! quelle performance! un duo aussi difficile sans se connaître et sans avoir répété auparavant ! ❤
Music....can make any 2 strangers look like they've known each other for years
You never know who you'll meet at a supermarket.
Es maravilloso ver nuevas y viejas generaciones haciendo arte en sincronía 😊🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Amazing pianist, amazing vocalist. Thank you so much for that beautiful gift. ❤
It's not every day that you get to hear a *baritone* perform this.
Bravo!
Wherever you are there is great culture!!!! Only a few moments later 🤟 Thanks for all the pleasure you give us. All the best from Germany
Juste énorme !! Merci au chanteur, au pianiste et bravo tous les deux !!
That is a great bit of serendipity! Imagine how much better he’d be if he’d had time to warm up.
This man has something special about him besides singing wonderful and yess I would love to hear more from him ❤❤
This blessed my soul! Thank you both.
That question at the end?
YES. Definitely more collaboration with that performer!
Esto es una joya. Bravo para Aurelien 👏 y el singer de Carmen👏😊🌹🌹😊🌹🌹🌹
He gives vibe and looks like a medieval Knight while singing.
Definitely a vibe! Check out Barihunks…Jacques-François Loiseleur-des-Longchamps
I have never heard the habanera sung by a man before! We sang it in the school choir in English. I suppose it was easier for the music teacher that way! 😁
Both the pianist and the singer did really well, especially if they had never met before, nevermind rehearsed. Playing for someone to sing can be hard as everyone sings with their own interpretation of the song and every pianist also plays their own way. The musicians are supposed to follow the soloist, but it doesn't always turn out so well! Especially if playing a piano with dead notes! 😂
Well done! 👍
Bravo!
So far, this is the best Habanera male cover that I've heard
Of course you are kidding, correct??
@@lifeisgood3087 C'mon I reply that even before April's Fools day 😅 Habanera male cover itself hard to find!
@@bryanmance4244 Habanera was written for mezzos or contraltos. Can you imagine a man singing a girly song? This is what it is.
@@bryanmance4244 Can you imagine a man singing a song strictly for females? Can you picture yourself singing Barbra Streisand's "I am a woman in love" or many songs written for the femmine?
@@bryanmance4244 Can you even imagine yourself singing Madonna's "Like a Virgin"? Same thing.
*this man deserves respect ✊, such a prodigy!*
That is real magic, magic of music.
This is one of those moments that restore our faith in humanity
That was very special- well done to both the piano player and the singer- beautiful 😊
Всё это даже очень впечатляет, если не брать в расчёт, что Хабанера, которая здесь звучит, написана... для женского голоса Кармен😮😅
Спето прекрасно! Со всеми надлежащими кульминациями и родным французским текстом!😂
Ощущение, что они всю жизнь выступают вместе и просто разыграли публику😂
Ну да. Допустим, сыграть так могут многие, например, я.
Но какова вероятность, что из тысяч знакомых мне произведений я буду играть именно Хабанеру, и что мимо как раз будет проходить человек, который её случайно знает целиком на французском.
@@MissGlissando It's literally one of the most famous, recognizable, and studied arias of all time. The chances are plenty good enough that it's not justified to be cynical about one instance of it working out.
@@MissGlissandoit's a small world
Мария Каллас!!!
Yes, please. More collaborations like this.
I love these clips! So positive in a world which needs beautiful people!
Wow! You were so responsive to him, such a beautiful collaboration, perfect!
This is just beautiful 👏 bravo to this surprising performance!
How beautiful, both the singing and the piano. I'm in tears ❤
What a beautiful moment. Thank you so much for sharing!
Bravo! c'est vraiment très bien le duo!
I love this duo!!!
So beautiful when strangers get together to entertain people…….
The world needs MUSIC. The world needs LOVE.
Just lovely 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Que lindo! Dois artistas se encontram e dão um presente maravilhoso para quem está passando! Como é bom ouvir uma boa música e uma boa voz! Parabéns! 💕💕🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Qual nome da música?
That's talent! Simply remarkable! Thanks for sharing!
That was wonderful. The two of you were enjoying it so much. Please MORE!!!😂❤
Wowww indeed an excellent opera singer😊☝️👍👏👏👏
Magnifique moment ! Merci
Wonderful encounter, they fit so good together. God bless You both!
Welldone! Bravo!
Yes, I want more videos with this singer
Как это прекрасно ❤ улыбка не покидает меня на протяжении всего видео 😊 👏🏻
We all need a name! It re-awoke my childhood love of opera. I want his records! Please, please❤
Jacques-François Loiseleur-des-Longchamps
When he opened up with the vocal part, I literally got tingles in my knees. Life should have more chance encounters like this one recorded for the world to enjoy!
Wonderful all around. Thank You.
Ха ха 😁❗ Парень хотел посолировать ❗😂. А пришлось аккомпанировать 😱. Браво Оперному певцу 👌👍👋❗ Случай один ,на миллион 👌❗
Meu coração dói de ver isso, de tanta emoção. Bravo! 😍
What a joy!!! You made my day!!! Thank you
A wonderful gift. Thank you for sharing.
Both of you are wonderful 😊😍😊
¡Bravo! ¡Bellísimo!
Brilliant! Bravo!❤
Awesome! Thanks for sharing
Not often you see/hear the singer trying to accompany the pianist
Wow! Sometimes life is nice! Appreciate the moment. What a nice person to offer you to sing like that. Funny that the piano is broken in places. Maybe now someone will fix it.
❤ please more of this, amazing voice...
What a treat!!! Who would not stop for this is missing the best thing in life!!!
Incroyable !
Putain😊
Wow! What's the name of the singer? Amazing voice.
It's definitely not amazing but it was still quite good
@@nickevershedmusic8927 Not very kind of you to say. This man was incredible, you might check your ears or your ego.
@@Sikanda. Check yours. Awful, slow vibrato, no high notes.
@@sananton2821 I didn't expect a wholesome video like this could attract bitter and sad people but here we are. Are we here to play "vocal coach" experts or appreciate two strangers sharing their passion for music?
I am 70 and every one of your videos brought me to tears. BRAVO
Just wonderful.... Both of you❤❤❤❤
Just goes to prove that opera isn't just for snobs. Reminded me of the scene in Shawshank Redemption when all the prisoners listened to opera from the record player.
Music truly is the international language and breaks down barriers! ❤❤❤😃
Thanks for the words too, maestro!
Amazing voice! Unbelievable he just popped there.
I love the joy in his smile while he is singing 💜
