AMIRA her BEST "Nessun Dorma" a capella Reaction

[@vikkiterlecki4242]

Really enjoyed your reaction to Amira thank you. She was only 14 here and was asked to sing for fans who had arrived at a South African radio station where she was being interviewed . Amira even invited a few fans into the actual recording area. What a precious caring young lady. By the way when the studio technician eventually got the backing music to come on, Amira was singing at the precise correct place. Quite incredible. What a marvel she is. Look forward to more Amira. God bless.

One of my favourite performances by Amira. That's what happens when she's at the top of her game...

Great reaction! Great conductors and percussionists need to have a good ear to know precisely what notes are being played. But above all they must have a mental metronome. Each song has alternative vocal keys (the conductor then checks that the notes are correct and not out of key), because each key only allows a few notes to be played/sung. And even for a given vocal key, a song can still have several rhythm alternatives or, more precisely, beats per minute (BPM). And the song has a precise duration in minutes and seconds. Singers, including sopranos, don't have a conductor's ear, don't have a mental metronome and are therefore imprecise with rhythm; the conductor helps them by delaying or advancing the music so that they can keep up with him. This version of Nessun Dorma is specifically for great sopranos: it's in D Major, has 82 BPM and lasts 3:52, meaning it has to be performed over 317 beats. It is over these beats that notes begin and end a few beats later, that the singer pauses and returns a few beats later. Amira has a conductor's ear, she has a very precise mental clock and on top of it she has a mental metronome that makes her independent of orchestra and even conductor. Amira's timing, pauses, rhythm and notes are perfect. She was selected at university to study classical singing and orchestral conducting. She is completing her first year with honors.

Great info Jorge. You have exceptional knowledge. Cheers Graeme

Thank you for the thoughtful comment. Man, you really went into detail and part of me wants to replace my commentary with yours. Your words describe what happened in this video perfectly

[@pexi111]

Thanks for your video. Amira is always perfect. An angel.

There is a 12-second pause while the choir sings at this point, this being part of the opera narrative. Amira then came back precisely on time.

Her timing and pitch is so precise, I wonder if she can hear the music in her earphones and it's just the radio audience who are denied the full experience. Either way, she sounds brilliant. Singing a capella doesn't faze her. There is a recent video of her singing O mio babinno caro to fans in a church who asked for it when she didn't have music for it. It's good. There is also a video of her singing See amid the winter's snow, with a male choir, her solo part is completely unaccompanied, the choir coming in on the chorus. She was just 11 at the time. I'll post it as a request. it's getting near Christmas anyway.

Absolutely brilliant performance! Amira handled that moment so well.

Great reaction once again man. Well done, & keep it going with our Angelic Amira. I gave you the pronunciation of Willighagen last reaction but you’ve obviously missed it, so here it is again: The “W” is a “V” and both the “g’s” are pronounced somewhere between a “G” & a “K”. So, it sounds like Vill…ik…haken. That’s as near to it as possible. When you get around to her performing “ When You Wish Upon a Star”, Amira introduces herself, so look out for that. Cheers Graeme

[@rantandchill9503]

Yeah, I think I missed the tip on pronouncing the last name. Vill.. ik..haken I have another Amira reaction that was recorded prior to this comment.
