Very very good! This song is my audition piece at Western coming up soon. You have great control over your voice! I greatly enjoy listening to you sing! Keep up the good work :D
Youre voice flows SO well in this song and the acoustics are just incredible it sounds like. AMAZING job, I'm singing this for a voice recital in almost a month and would love to know what you think, ill post it then.
@chiarocontralto This means absolutely nothing. If you're going to make a criticism at least have the courtesy to do it in a technically competent way.
A fair performance and a good voice. Don't forget what this song is all about. The lyrics say "Day seems like night, hot like cold." It's quite lamenting, but has a sweetness to it at the same time.
More practice with the pronunciation and speed and this will be a great song for you.
I am a voice student in college and just had this piece added to my repertoire. It's a favorite of mine already, and you perform it very very well! kudos.
You sound really great for a great young tenor! It's going to be a full, rich sound as you grow into your voice even more. I'd try backing off on your aspirated consonants, though. puh-tuh-kuh shouldn't produce air in the Italian language. You'll sound a lot more like a native speaker. Best of luck!!
I mean, I am one too. Ive sung my entire life (basically) and I go to school on a vocal scholarship. I understand that we like criticism on how to be better, but I feel like sometimes we need to just sit back and enjoy the music. :)
This is good but pronunciation is off a little bit.....I am doing this for college auditions. You need to make your mouth shape longer instead of wider and you will get a better sound! Good job though.
Lovely instrument.....keep working hard. There are some good comments above that I agree with..rememver this song is about the pain of lost love...if I wouldn't have known the song so well I would not have gotten that from you interpretation. The voice is there...keep working at it....bravo
This is a solid sound for a young singer! Keep that tenorial "ping" but try adding a little more depth to the vowels by dropping the jaw. Look over your Italian diction...and don't push the high notes! You're straining a bit...losing the body's connection to the sound, which is causing the larynx to pull upward. This can be very dangerous if you don't nip it in the bud early.
Ignore the negativity and ill comments from people. You have a very nice voice and loads of potential, with the right teacher you will grow into your voice. Yes, grow into yourself. You have probably been taught that the male voice does not begin to mature untill your late 20's and early 30's normally. This piece is NOT easy, keep singing and ignoring THEY that say NAY!! Good job!
wow, that's a kick-ass voice, nice tenor tone! just make sure to watch out for when Dounady sets umpteen different vowels on the same note, those absolutely have to be as clear as a bell. I'm singing this on my junior recital next week, and I'm having the exact same problem.
I think that your voice is beautiful...yes there are some areas that need a little work, however you are young and those technical things will fix themselves as you and your voice matures. I have sung this piece many times and it isn't at all easy. Keep singing and dont worry about some of these iditotic comments that have been posted.
your diction could use some improvement (more aggressive diction, and make sure it's italian)and connection of sounds between vowels with your consonants. maybe losing some support in some places, but you have a great instrument! keep the support column open all the time! good job!
sometimes...diction...is like ar...you cant nv perfectly make it right, even you are a native singer for the particular language...for example, do you think you can sing mandarin correctly??
i think u did a good job....but i dont think ur breathing from the diaphram (spelling?) i see the shoulders lifting a lot during your breaths...fix that and ur voice will have more body to it :)
Actually, what you're seeing is too much bending and straightening of the body by pressing into the floor on the major beats. You are right though, he is not utilizing his diaphragm to its fullest. It's a very common thing for younger singers. It will come with patience and hard work. BTW - Beautiful and pleasant timbre, as many people have already mentioned.
i dont know what was that discussion about- for me it is full of emotions, discretly this voice is going right thru the deepths of the heart. you're great!
this performance is completely lack of any expression or feeling...very boring... do you even know what powerful words you are singing about love?... your voice has no substance, no power..
i hope you feel better for posting such stupid unencouraging comments.This is a young student singing with a good natural voice and good potential you obviously dont know what your talking about
and having just read the comments left on your page you obviously enjoy insulting people , if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all a comment you may bear in mind in future!
ok i agree with you being honest and speaking your mind as their is far too much crap written on here about people with no talent!and the talented ones actually dont then deserve the credit they desreve.....i have heard people saying paul potts is better than pavarotti (look him up) what crap! All i meant here is this is a young student(boy) who is learning thats all
He just needs a good teacher. I think there's plenty of potential in the voice. It's not unhealthy. He just has no clue about tapping into the real core of his sound. Sadly, it's more a reflection of his teacher than him. It took me until my 40s to really learn what real singing is... because I begged a former opera star to teach me... and he did every day for a year... from the beginning. This is not done now.
I want to congratulate you for doin a great job with this piece. You have such a warm timbre, ur voice its very sweet, keep it up my man, u r goin to b great. Thinking about technique its somethin u and ur teacher have to deal with it no one else, so dont care what people say. Sing from the heart n thats wat it really matters. You do need to polish the italian but its not bad at all.
You did a good job singing this. However, I don't think this style (or at least this song) suites you best. I do like the way you came in on almost all your entrances. Your 64th notes needs work. I couldn't hear them all because your rushed through them. Your Italian needs work. But good job.
Watch out... you cut off the vowels, especially at the top notes. You are also squeezing the sound instead of vibrating it throughout. Little tidbits of info. Keep working hard and thanks for the post.
beautifully sung, lovely timbre to your voice. Good poise too, none of this waving the arms about like a traffic cop done by so many "professionals". Hope you get a good teacher who won't muck it up.
I'd love to see you sing this knowing what the words mean.
