I see you've discovered Amira. She is an absolute treasure. Yes, she can sing opera (the Olympics of singing IMHO) but she has shown she can sing many of the classics also, and in about 10 different languages. She has quite the repertoire and a MASSIVE world-wide following. Obviously her performances on the grand stage are popular ..... but she has sung 'Ave Maria' ... spur of the moment (at only 11) ... on a street in Brussels Belgium ... with a busker's guitar accompaniment, that's attracted almost 4 million views ! (Note: Read the busker's story of that day and his being shocked when he realized who she was. Priceless !) Just passed that on to show her versatility. She is a very humble young lady with a huge charitable heart. And she's quite the successful distance runner too. Won a bunch of races. I should mention. Corlea Botha was Amira's mentor here, and helped her vocally after her move to ZA from the Netherlands. A tremendous singer in her own right. Cheers from Canada.
There is a longer version, but it starts with Amira introducing both singers and the song (in Afrikaans with English translation). Amira sings in about 11 languages (this one in French) and is fluent in Dutch, English, and Afrikaans. She was 13 at this time.
Hi guys, it’s about 2 months since you did your last Amira reaction, so I reckon it’s time for another. There is one particular performance you will absolutely love. The emotion she exudes , together with her powerful voice & beautiful vibrato is absolutely amazing. This performance is : Ave Maria by Gomez at the Canisius Church. Note that Amira is just 11 years old. I’m gobsmacked that this perfect sound comes from an 11 year old. Hope to hear another Amira reaction soon. Cheers Graeme.
Hi again guys, This is the serial nuisance once again asking for another Amira Willighagen reaction. My last post of 4 weeks ago detailed a performance that I’m sure you will be blown away with . Given that you may have missed my post, here are the details. “ Ave Maria by Gomez at the Canisius Church “ when Amira was a mere 11 years of age. Cheers, & sincerely hope to hear from you soon.
Amira was 10 in your last video when she sang O Mio Babbino Caro with Andre Rieu, that was 2014. This performance was from her Classic is Groot concerts. She first snag Nessum Dorma and then this one. Later in the show she does a beautiful Amazing Grace. So this performance Summer of 2017 and Amira was 13. Note she will be 17 March 27th
Groovy. If you want an alternative to opera you could try Little Drummer Boy, sung a few years later in South Africa, supported by the Mzansi Youth Choir.
I'm a bit weird, as in that I love both classical music and (besides a lot of other genres) heavy metal. I LOVE Amira's voice ever since I heard her sing in Holland's Got Talent, and she gets better with every year that goes by (although she still is only 17 now I think - in 2021). Maybe you've also heard of another amazing Dutch singer called Floor? She sings mostly with the famous band Nightwish, and in their music I find both my music preferences. It's called Orchestral Metal. If you want to listen to them I would recommend the song: Ghost Love Score.
As your friend is not so into opera maybe a good video to react to with him would be the combination one O Mio Babbino Caro/ Your Love. He is probably very familiar with Enio Morricone's Your Love.
You obviously don't have to be a lover of opera. For sure. Try to take it on this way. This song was written 140 or 150 years ago! Covered now... By these two ladies. It's just a song. Written by a guy named Léo Delibes. It's a romantic song. He wrote it for a soprano (Amira) and mezzo-soprano (Corlea). In a time, btw, where voices meant something. Sure, this performance with a thirteen... Let it sink in.... 13 year young girl... 13! is absolutely amazing. As I said... It doesn't have to be your cup of tea, but this song, like many opera songs is at the foundation of music and songs nowadays. It's like the silent movies and Charlie Chaplin. You might think: "meh"😏, but without him films would probably not have been evolved like now. You could say that the world should appreciate such a guy maybe a bit more? History is important, you know... 😉 If you listen once in a while to this kind of, almost, ancient "songs" it makes you wonder if internet giants like Bieber, Swift or any others, produced songs that are still widely covert, worldwide, and to be considered the best songs ever in let's say.... 2173... 🙄 I don't think so... 😆 Nice reaction guys...thanks... 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌷
Good reaction guys. Glad to see you getting the liking for Opera Rob, & you Tyler, who thinks he may go see Opera one day. I’ve already given you a couple more Amira performances , so would love to hear your reactions down the track. I’ll remind you if you start slackening off. Another one to put on your list is Hallelujah. This will knock your socks off. She sings just one word in the entire song. Sounds Awful, but WOW.
I had never listened to opera before I watched Amira and became her fan. Loved your reaction.

Please react to Amira singing amazing grace. It is wonderful there is no other way to describe it. Keep the reactions coming. 😄👍🇬🇧

At the same concert she sang Nessun Dorma - an opera song, and Amazing Grace. Both are really worth taking in. She was 13 at the time.

Amira was born in March 2004. So she would be 13 years old performing this duet with Corlea in 2017.

She took the lower parts. Corlea is her teacher. Corlea can reach F#6. Check Corlea Botha cover of "Stay"
13yrs old in this vid :)
Simplesmente fantástico ❤
Brilliant
