Reaction to Amira Willighagen & Patrizio Buanne ~ O Sole Mio - TEACHER PAUL REACTS

[@passqualecaiazza7728]

Here is 12 year old Amira and Patrizio. Such a beautiful performance. Nice reaction

[@graemeblackburn7511]

I’m eagerly awaiting your reaction to this incredibly talented young Soprano Paul. I can’t see where you’ve reacted to her before, so tighten your seatbelt & be amazed as have literally millions of her fans worldwide. Amira’s journey is quite unbelievable & somewhat unique as in the fact that she won Holland’s Got Talent at the age of nine without having a single singing lesson. Since that time & after commencing voice training, Amira has performed in some 20 countries & sung in at least 5 languages. Her live concert performances have been accompanied by a full orchestra with choirs & back up singers & to a full auditorium. After your reaction, I will suggest a few more of her performances for your consideration, & I have no doubt you will be most keen to follow her journey as there is so much more to this young lady than her magnificent voice. Kindest regards, Graeme.

It truly is UNBELIEVABLE. A girl 12 years young singing like that. BRILLIANT and UNIQUE.

Yes, 12

Great job, Paul! Don't worry about her last name, just call her Amira. The great baritone Patrizio Buanne is an artist that many would like to sing with, but he chose the 12-year-old Amira to make a long artistic partnership. When Simon Cowell saw Amira on stage at age 9, he declared to journalists: "She's already a complete artist." She has around her a group of extraordinary people who love her and who also guide her in the best possible way, always prioritizing her well-being and her long-term health. Some people see Amira as a force of Nature, others as a gift from God. But everyone agrees that she is the best of the best.

"Some people see Amira as a force of Nature, others as a gift from God. But everyone agrees that she is the best of the best." Very well said. So glad she has good people looking out for her.

This video was done in July 2016 & released in November 2016. Amira was born in March 2004. Hence she was 12 when the video was done. Since she is Dutch, the W in her last name sounds likes an English "V." Listen to her audition on Holland's Got Talent in 2013 to hear her last name pronounced. In the longer version of the audition, one can see Amira practicing her wave. She won the annual contest. She was 9 then in 2013. By 2012, she was seasoned. The above video was done in South Africa, the birthplace of her mother. In 2018, Amira moved there with he brother & mother. Amira is now 17. She did at least two streaming concerts in 2020.

Ooh, I love this duet!!! It’s long been one of my favorites. 💕💕💕💕 BTW, her name is pronounced “Vilighagen” with hard G’s. You should watch her audition on Holland’s Got Talent when she was only nine, singing “O Mio Babbino Caro.” Amazing, particularly when you know she had never had a singing lesson other than what she’d picked up on KZbin!

Nice reaction to this beautiful performance

[@lavendel1574]

Beautiful? Yes it is !!!! Amazing

[@m.a.sperry3424]

STUNNING!!!!!

[@francespadron2597]

Amira sings so beautiful. When singing with Patrizio this song " O Sole Mio" she was 12 years old.

[@keybored1981]

If you want to hear Amira pronounce her own name, listen to her introduction to "When You Wish Upon a Star", she introduces herself at the beginning. If you want to hear how far she has come and how her voice has matured, I think that is the performance to react to; she released it just three weeks ago (she's 17). If you're wanting to do some more performances in between, a couple of my favorites is the Flower Duet with Corlea Botha (hard to believe she was only 13 there) and the Sound of Music Medley at age 15.

[@gerrygrouwe70]

Watch her doing o mio bambino caro wenn she was 9

[@bertbaur9810]

You ask how she can sing like that! YOUR THE TEACHER!!!!

[@mikehuskins1849]

Let's see I believe this is your third reaction to Amira. One with Andre Rieu at age 10. the second Amazing Grace at age 13 and this one with Patrizio at age 12. Well she is 17 now. You think she was good then and she was you should react as she gets older cause it gets even better. I hope you do more cause I believe you will enjoy the journey.

[@hansvanrijswijk409]

You must seer her , when she was only 9 y.o. Amazing . And , at that moment , she don't has a teacher. Holland got talent. 2013

[@JackPoynter]

you are coming late to the feast, but you are welcome. She is 17 now, she was 12 when she sang this song, and had already been performing for three years.

[@IMChrysalis]

If you watch her audition for Holland's Got Talent, you can get her name pronounced... just FYI, she was 9 years old...

[@JoeU21]

Please listen to her sing “Amazing Grace.”

[@gerrygrouwe70]

Now she is 17

[@joepollard9476]

TEACHER PAUL. Amira (pronounced Villighaagen) was 12 at this time.

[@wimdokwerker2941]

Ongeveer 12 jaar op dit filmpje

[@charlesbrown5433]

12

[@vincentdoineau7149]

Your second attempt to pronouce her name was almost the good one Paul, just replace the W by a V, and it will be OK
