Ok fine. I like Opera... Vocal Coach Reacts to PAVAROTTI "Nessun Dorma" (first time analysis)

For sixty years, I weep every time I hear him sing this. It's pure audible emotion.

Your tears while watching and listening to this performance - I’m right there with you, Lolli, every time.

For all those who are not into Opera. This clip is from a recital, where Pavarotti is singing different "arie", little pieces from different Operas. You can think of Opera like a musical before cinema was created. The story is narrated by music and acting, and is usually full of passion, deaths, betrayals and every kind of thing that can make the audience emotional. And every singer must also be an actor. This aria is from Turandot, a beautiful but maleficent princess who kills every guy who wants to marry her but is not able to answer three riddles. But the prince Calaf is in the end able to give the right answers. Calaf is in the end forced to make a riddle to Turadot and he ask "What is my name?". And in this aria Calaf is waiting for the sun to rise, when he will be able to marry the princess. That's why he says "the mystery is within me" and "at dawn I will be the winner". If you want to have a glimpse of what Opera really is, I can suggest you to check the aria "Vesti la giubba" performed by Pavarotti (with subtitles). Cheers

Someone: I don't like opera Luciano: Hold my vino Him singing this, is my favorite piece of classical music, period. Thank you for your awesome reaction and analysis.

You're so beautiful when art makes you cry. You make the art more beautiful.

Pavarotti singing Caruso is also quite an experience. He is my favorite opera singer of all time

I saw him in concert, in the 80s. He was SO GOOD!

I'm a metalhead, but if you don't cry to this, you're dead inside..

As I once read years ago: listening to Pavarotti as your first opera, is like taking your first car ride in a Rolls Royce.

I've seen dozens of reactions to this performance. This is absolutely the best. Elizabeth's analysis is now #2. Lolli, I hope you know what a compliment that is!

Her singing after a luciano clip to show how the voice works was so beautiful, i already known she is an amazing singer but now, omg she's incredible

I’ve been listening to Pavarotti sing for 45 years, and crying to this one for the same amount of time. Thank you so much, Lolli.

When I am in an opera listening mood, I always include La Momma Morta by Maria Callas. Those five minutes can only be called soul-piercing.

I've watched more than a few reactions/analyses of this performance and you're the first one to comment on what happens AFTER Pav finishes the last line! He has such an incredibly fierce expression on his face, as if his entire being is wrapped up in the moment, and it takes him a few seconds to come back to this world.

Oh you sweet, sensitive water sign. Watching you experience such heartfelt emotion, wearing your heart on your sleeve, as you listen to one of the most authentic acoustic experiences of an era has to be the most wholesome thing I'll do today. Never change, Lolli. We're right there with you! 🥲

Would love to see you react to opera legend Jussi Björling. When Pavarotti once was compared to him he said "Please I'm only human" which shows how humble Pavarotti was. Björlings version of Nessun Dorma is so angelic, and his swedish version of O Holy Night (O Helga Natt) is so powerful as well. Truly one of the masters.

Not an opera fan but I could have watched this man all day. The apparent "ease" that he has to make that magnificent sound is stunning. I'm sure that ease was the result of talent but also years and years of training. The GOAT, sadly missed.

It hit you right when the chorus intervenes. It gets me there, too. Every time. It’s simply a thing of beauty.

Your ability to hear something and immediately play it back yourself...however difficult, whatever genre etc is just astounding. What a gift!

🧞 .. Why does the voice make us weep ? In a song high , or in a song deep , where in the words does that power reside ? Shall the tears fall , for we don't decide. They fall as they wish as the song swings and sways , and our souls hold what the singer portrays. Why does the voice make us weep ? Let your tears fall , they are not yours to keep. ....... Hi Lolli. I met Mr. Pavarotti at an event and was able to speak with him. I almost cried just hearing him say hello. .. 🧞
