Jonathan Antoine stunning Godfather theme - Vocal Coach Reaction

Jonathan Antoine sings Parla Più Piano, the song derived from the Godfather film score by Nino Rota. William reacts from a beach in Thailand where the music fits perfectly with his surrounding. He could be in Sicily, looking over his shoulder for Don Corleone!

Jonathan sings and lives from his heart. His voice and artistry have ripened and become even richer over the years. He is a treasure!

[@osovagabundo1]

Shortly after bgt he and Charlotte went to Pavarottis home and met his voice coach. He gave Charlotte some advice. Jonathon sang a few bars and the elder wizened voice coach just put his hands together and told him, I have nothing to tell you. Take this gift out into the world.

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

I do believe that Jonathan is blessed with not only a wonderful instrument but a natural singing technique which some people take years and years to try to acquire. How this happened, one will never really know.

[@mzpatintexas8329]

@@BangkokVoiceCoach Jonathan steps into the music and becomes part of the flow of the music. When younger,he would physically move with the music ,close his eyes,and smile.... and step in mentally.

[@mirapetrella8860]

Thank you William for showcasing a brilliant young man with a powerful voice.

[@masonsteele1674]

Happy to see that Jonathon was willing to follow his dream. Bravo Jonathon!!

[@johnbattles1002]

I've never watched The Godfather, so I never realized this song is from that movie! I love the song; it is so beautiful! And Jonathan does an unbelievable rendition of it. He's every bit as much of a wonderful human being as he is a vocalist!

[@ElizabethRoss-uj8rl]

It was obvious from that first performance on BGT that this young man was a superstar. Thank you for showcasing his talent as it only grows with time. The Godfather theme is also growing over time and is beautifully paired with Jonathan Antoine.

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

I do agree. It’s a magical combination and his use of Italian language is outstanding.

[@petaflores5832]

Jonathan is the Best, absolut the Best singer in the world, for me!!!!!thanks❤❤❤❤❤❤❤danke jonathan,,,,

[@cy4330]

I actually don't listen to operatic songs because the opera singers have this robot face with only their mouth is moving but Jonathan Antoine is an exception. He is theatrical, dramatic with lots of expressions and emotions on his face. Love listening to him. His voice is expressive not just technical.

[@mzpatintexas8329]

Jonathan is a classical and crossover performer. His performance of .. Baby Mine.. performed in Falsetto is stunning, recorded on his album, ( Going the Distance) you can hear the tears in his voice. Jon doesn’t just sing to the audience during a concert, he involves the audience in dialogue,tears and laughter. 🎶❣️

[@816Tatiana]

Jonathan Antoine is EXTRAORDINARY this young man has achieved to be the youngest Tenore in history to have achieved Two number one charting albums in history. He has made numerous KZbin videos you should look him up singing Nessun Dorma he is MIND-BLOWING ❤💚🥰

[@sandrak.robbins6305]

Thank you William. What a silky voice! Emotional and personal. Really wonderful :)

[@TracyH13]

He's great isn't he? ❤

[@annestep6741]

his voice just keeps getting better and better. You could see the twinkle in Simon's eye when he sang. Just like it twinkled with Susan Boyle. Simon signs up all the talent that comes on that show

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

I know but I’m not a great fan of Cowell. That twinkle in his eye only means one thing. He’s thinking “I can make money from this person.”

[@annestep6741]

@@BangkokVoiceCoach yup, you can see the wheels turning

[@annestep6741]

@@BangkokVoiceCoach me either but I think he was very kind with Susan Boyle. She had so many challenges with her mental health and he was soft and easy on her. I don't know what her contract with him entailed but he didn't push her to perform or record if she wasn't able.

[@adamknight7041]

He also signs talentless Boybands flashing their torsos for young women's attention as he knows he can market and ultimately exploit such novelty acts as they'll make him a quick buck. 😂 Fortunately I think he is intelligent enough and has the musical ear to acknowledge true talent like Jonathan and SuBo when they comes along!

[@katiecannon8186]

One more comment: Thank you soooo much for being the type of person who is moved by someone like Jonathan. Your enthusiasm and appreciation is truly beautiful.

[@nanettetredoux7613]

Thank you for this reaction William. I have not been following his career since the audition on Britain's Got Talent. What a glow-up he has had! The voice is really impressive and I would love to hear him sing with Amira. Perhaps someone could make that happen.

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

Wouldn’t that be amazing. Her voice has so much ping and his has such a lot of depth. They would match really well.

[@adamknight7041]

​@@BangkokVoiceCoach I'd personally love to hear him sing with Angel Blue whom I happen to know is a distant friend of Jonathan's as they attended the same music conservatoire when they were students and she had stated numerous times on social media of her admiration of his voice and personality so maybe there's a way we can make a duet between them happen 😊

[@marion521]

@@adamknight7041 Are you sure about your information - I understand they met when they both appeared with Placido Domingo at The Roundhouse in 2014

[@gabrielleridgway405]

luv luv your professional reviews fuelled by your obvious love and knowledge of music - thanks for the review of a young tenor in such a difficult genre to have a lot of commercial success in! but whose voice for me even elevates puccini and is doing a lot for making classical music popular

[@carljacobson8342]

Jonathan was asked to be part of the annual Carols In The Domain 2023 Sydney Australia, he performed in front of an audience of 30,000 people! He sang The First Noel (Beautifully) and was given the honor of singing the #1 voted carol O Holy Night as the last solo performance before the Grande Finale. One week later the concert was televised across Australia and on the internet. Before this concert he had a large private concert in Vietnam.

[@doriscastillo8020]

I listen to Pavaroty and thousand times prfere Jonathan, transmitted the real feelling of the song.

[@trishalivingston1051]

Hi William, I just love your 'take' on my favorites. So gentle, positive, kind, insightful and you share a different perspective completely than others. My all time favorite has been Amira since the beginning, but Johnathon was such a compelling talent, and with Charlotte, he was able to showcase his incredible voice. He is superb singing the Godfather theme. I look forward to more of your insights in other videos. TY for sharing.

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

Thanks Trisha. Hopefully the beach wasn’t too noisy but I felt the music fitted with the outdoor location.

[@colleenverdon6315]

Beautiful

[@daleennis3140]

You are always spot on with your comments.I enjoy your videos.I would love to see Jonathan,and Amira,perform together sometime.

[@roxanaheath8098]

I first saw him BGT. He is wonderful. This song is beautiful.

[@caspervanelli6502]

I watched his audition on BGT, where he was literally shaking with nervousness and was supported in a great way by Charlotte. Good to see he has come this far! Absolutely brilliant singer, I am a fan :-)

[@dmpldlbos44]

I remember the first time I watched Charlotte and Jonathan. Did not know what their voices were going to sound like. When they started to sing, I noticed that Charlotte's voice was kind of scratchy, or throaty, but Jonathan's voice was more experienced, and I was in awe that a 17 year old had such a beautiful operatic voice. And look at him now. He is amazing!

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

A wonderful guy.

[@alicetucker6641]

Magnificent! ❤

[@marybagwell3939]

[@joepollard9476]

WILLIAM: Thank you for your interest in Jonathan Antoine. His transformation from those early days in astounding. This is Jonathan at his best. He could not have started without Charlotte Jaconelli, who went on to have her own pop career. Next to Bocelli he is my favourite operatic singer. Best wishes JOE.

[@adamknight7041]

Bocelli isn't actually very "operatic" he has a lovely colour to his voice but his vibrato is thin and airy especially in the middle to lower registers and he doesn't have the richness of overtones for his voice to carry over an orchestra without a microphone which is the true definition of "operatic", I do believe Jonathan has more potential for Opera as his voice is bigger but it depends whether he shows a genuine interest in the art or he's simply more content with Classical-Pop crossover performances and more public concerts.

[@joepollard9476]

@@adamknight7041. Operatic singers in stage performances can manage because the audiences are comparatively small. Pavarotti used a microphone in concerts, sometimes a bank of several. Those who sometimes appear before audiences of 10,000-40,000 (as guest singers for Andre Rieu) have microphones (but not necessarily hand-held).

It's very good to see! Thank you.

Thanks again William for your commentary... I would love to hear your thoughts on Jonathan's performance of Core Ngrato, which raised the hairs on my scalp and affected members of the choir behind him. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j32zqKCFmbp0nKM

[@katiecannon8186]

Please do more Jonathan, he’s struggling right now and deserves more public support. And, honestly, the public deserves artists like him even if they struggle for an audience & record contracts & such.

[@BangkokVoiceCoach]

Is his career not progressing?

[@katiecannon8186]

So about a year or year and half ago he announced a big project with a top song writer, arranger & producer. Unfortunately, he hadn’t mentioned it since. Instead, he’s recently stated that he really doesn’t know what his next move is. So I’m guessing that hoped for project had fallen through.

[@katiecannon8186]

@@BangkokVoiceCoach To be more specific, he’s now an “independent” artist. And is having to fund raise to do another album: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXu0hKGIr7iNh5Y&si=wGK5uHYrjZn8eTtK
