No synth. No vocoder. No auto-tune. Just pure human with a set of vocal cords signed by God.

auto-tune?!?! are you joking. this is another sport.

Pavarotti got emotional because he knew it was the best performance of his career and the best rendition of this masterpiece by any singer ever.

[@wyomingpark]

Nobody does Nessun Dorma like Pavarotti. He owns it. Legend and such a treasure to have experienced his beautiful voice.

[@miafranlund6982]

Have you ever heard Jussi Björling? He was an incredible tenor, also the one that Pavarotti said he admired.

[@giovannigio3764]

He is indeed a legendary singer with a outstanding voice but he isn't the best but he is a very good second best. Dimash is a more talented singer that can sing perfect live. Has perfect mic/breath control. Sings with emotion and is a story teller. Can switch perfect between 7 octaves. He has is multi talented. He can sing any music genre and can sing in over 15 languages. He plays over 7 instruments and can dance. And he is still only 28.

Pavarotti is arguably the GREATEST tenor to ever grace a stage. You don’t even know what the lyrics are to know what you’re supposed to feel. If you listen to this and don’t end with chills you have no pulse!

[@yearbyred8588]

Subtitles for Pavarotti?? I’ve seen this 100’s of times and never felt the need to know what he’s singing. It’s pure emotion.

[@chrisofmelbourne87]

One of the best things that have ever been sung, in history. Full stop! Woww. Glad you reached to this man.

This is an amazing Performance of an Aria, he always did well. He knew it.

[@mssuziquzi]

Magnificent! Many say Pavarotti was the greatest tenor the world has known and Nessun Dorma was his aria. I've seen many others try, but no one has ever been able to match Luciano Pavarotti's power and epic stage presence. His performance here gives everyone chills.❤

[@arcillasteehouwer48]

That man is the only tenor that gives me goosebumps all over me. There is that emotion inside him and in his voice that always resonates. RiP Luciano❤🙏🏻

[@G.O.B55]

Truly one of the most gifted tenors in history

[@jolezius326]

Oh bless. My father was an Australian returned serviceman from world war 2. He was born in 1922 and he adored this version of this song- I have such treasured memories of my Aussie Dadda listening to this Italian music with tears in his eyes 🥺🥺

[@xDRAGONSTARx]

7:39 I have always said it, but when he finishes that brilliant note and gets that look on his face, I swear he saw God in that moment. Every time I see this part it gives me chills, the look of wonder, surprise and almost confusion in his eyes. No one will ever convince me that he didn't see God in that moment. Simply brilliant!

[@neilsmith4732]

I was so fortunate to see Pavarotti live. Just brilliant. Nothing else to say ❤

[@SueK51]

Nick, you've just witnessed the best of the best.

[@roydeneckhardt3112]

"Nessun Dorma" is a classic. It is a song I think Luciano Pavarotti put on the map. Once he sang it, then all singers wanted to do it, but no one does it as well as he did. Im glad you did this genre of music as well. Makes me love your channel even more. 👍

[@r.fairlie7186]

@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee I recommend you to watch the three Samoan opera singers who are Sol3 Mio, Pene Pati (also on KZbin as Darren Pene Pati), Amitai Pati, both tenors, and their cousin Moses Mackay, a baritone. Their families moved to New Zealand and their high school music teacher recognised their talent. They later went to Wales on scholarships and graduated with a Master’s degree in Opera Singing. Dame Malvina Major, the retired NZ soprano, sang with Luciano Pavarotti in London early in his career and is on record saying that she can hear the young Pavarotti in Pene Pati’s voice. The two brothers sing “Nessun Dorma” on the Sol3 Mio channel but it’s just the recording from their album. Pene sings the first half and Amitai the second half. A live version is on their concert DVD. There’s a separate video of Pene singing “Nessun Dorma” and “La donna e mobile” where you can hear why his voice now reminds more than a few of us of Pavarotti. Apart from his opera singing Moses Mackay also composes and sings crossover songs. His newest ones on the Moses Mackay YT channel deserve recognition - “Some Sorta Sensation” and “Embers Of Fire”. The latter song really shows off his operatic talent. They’re from his new album “Grace”. He also plays piano, double bass and guitar. Both the Pati brothers play piano and guitar. They’re introducing a whole new generation to opera which is great to see.

[@anndevries8267]

It’s an aria from Turandot written by Puccini. In my opinion one of his saddest opera’s but so so beautiful.

[@jacqueline4514]

I get goosebumps every single time. You are correct; Aretha filled in for Pavarotti last minute; very few people in the world can do that.

[@tangledfish]

WHen opera singers of Pavarotti's level have a vocally off night they cancel the performance and the audience are fine with it. It's a whole different level of vocal perfectionism.

[@JediKilla]

One of the greatest voices in history.

[@TheDivayenta]

Nick - if you ever get the chance to study classical voice, Please do ! You have a gorgeous baritone and you’re so musical! Nessun Dorma means “ no one sleeps “ because the Chinese princess will execute the whole town if he doesn’t guess the answers to three riddles correctly. Fairytale! ! I always recommend CARMEN for new opera goers. It’s highly melodic, rhythmical and sexy! You know themes from it- especially the Toreador song. A must watch!!

I knew someone who was training in voice. He said a major rule is to always stay in character until the music ends (not when you are done singing). He does this to perfection

[@pietersbart]

Yeah he really lives this song and feels and makes you feel all of this. Pavarotti is incredibly good. Going to the opera, at least once, is great. I'm not really an opera fan, but we went once last year and it was great! The song's title means 'no-one sleeps': the princess ordered the village to remain awake all night to discover the identity of the person Pavarotti is playing. The Charismatic Voice did a great reaction of this performance and goes into great detail about everything. She also said that he had trouble at first, quit for a while before rising to stardom. My vocal coach has me sing an aria for the development of my voice :-)

[@pricey6177]

I think this is one of the only songs that whenever i hear it, i well up.

Nessun Dorma ( "no one sleeps") is an aria from Puccini's opera "Turandot", sung by all the great ( and near great ) opera stars (male and female)........this is probably the most moving rendition of all....R.I.P., Maestro Pavarotti.......

Indeed, as you said, the VOICE of the Great Master Luciano PAVAROTTI it is "IMMACULATE". This is a LOVE song for a WOMAN ... sung by a MAN in love. The Great Maestro named LUCIANO PAVAROTTI had this incredible ability to touched your SOUL.... using his exceptional VOICE. He usually touched and vibrate the souls of the HUMANS who heard his arias...... and even the ANGELS stopped in fascination just to listen to this miracle voice of a MAN.

He sold insurance and was a school teacher in his hometown of Modena, Italy. He studied music for 6 years before singing in public. He also said he suffered from stage fright that never left him. He sang in Central Park in New York before 500,000 people. Not bad for an opera singer.

[@anecdotal_mattybs5435]

As others have said this holds memories of others too. My dad passed away a few months ago and he used to be an amateur operatic singer who terrified me as a kid belting this out around the house full throatedly. Brings a tear to my eye. They are expensive things to go watch, and a lot of rich toffs go usually but it’s well worth going in person if ever the opportunity arises to feel the music shaking your whole body not just through headphones.

Opera singing mostly requires A LOT OF WORK to reach such level of proficiency. Added to natural talent you reach absolute perfection. Luciano Pavarotti was one of the best - if not "the" best" - tenors of his generation.

The show here is watching to you guy ! It's so delightful to see a young man like you discovering the best opera singer of all the times !!! 😃And yes, the chills for me too, once again ! Let me tell you something more, little funny : Searching and hearing Nessun Dorma by Pavarotti, youtube offered me others versions, like Amira Villigaghen and Emanne Beasha, young singers singing that (listen to them please !), but a few time after, with this, youtube proposed me Angelina Jordan !!! So thank you Luciano, I have now Angelina in my heart for the rest of my life ! 😍

[@marireed2678]

Pavarotti performed this role in the opera "Turandot" many times. In this concert, at the end of this song when he sings "I will win, I will win, I will win", his facial expressions are part of that role, he is acting. I watch a lot of operas on KZbin, many with English subtitles so you know what it's about. If you're new to opera, start with the lighter, comical operas like The Barber of Seville (Rossini) or The Marriage of Figaro (Mozart). Carmen is a big fan favorite, also Madame Butterfly and LaTraviata, though all 3 have sad endings.

[@likeahurricane3296]

Yeah, Pavarotti is incredibly good, he is considered one of the greatest tenors of all time, and he also became well known as a duet partner to many pop artists, he was one of the biggest superstars. Enrico Caruso is considered the greatest tenor of all time. He was born to poor parents in Naples in 1873 and begged his way through life as a street singer to pay for singing lessons. I grew up with Mario Lanza, an Italian-American born in Philadelphia in 1921 who has become known as an opera singer (tenor) and actor around the world. I still love his films to this day. The most beautiful film with Mario Lanza was from 1951 (The Great Caruso). I'm not an opera fan, I've dealt with this topic a little bit, that's fascinating, because the rock and pop music that we listen to today was influenced by a lot of musical styles. A good example was Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of Queen, who let the opera music influence his voice but also his stage presence. A good example is the song, Bohemian Rhapsody, which contains elements of opera.
