Unbelievable! This shall be a boy really? Even a Danielle Deniese would become extremely jealous concerning his voice abilities! Excellent performance!

Wow, I am absolutely bowled over. Amazing!!

@52sport6469 Fitting that he should be 11, since Mozart was 11 when he wrote this, and one of the original cast, the boy who sang Hyacinthus, was also 11. The boy who first sang Melia was 15 though!

Amade componeerde deze opera K38 in 1767 op 11 jarige leeftijd waarvan het libretto in het latijn, ongelooflijk.

Listening to music on u tube is like gambling; every so often one hits a jackpot. Such is the case here where one finds not only a beautiful and rare Mozart aria, but one stupendously sung by the soloist. I find this version more satisfying than any other. By contrast, interpretations offered by adult sopranos seem strangely charmless. Moreover, the slower tempo taken here yields a more graceful result while allowing the soloist to breath mid-phrase as warranted.

What an excellant voice and performance. Truly gifted.

The more times I watch this video the more awe-struck I become by this utterly incredible performance.
Some later TKC- sopranos have been (by modern video-technic being used by nearly everybody) reaching greater fame and popularity, but to me Allan Bergius is absolute the best one. A tremendous performance here - 7 minutes singing - Crystal clear hitting e-v-e-r-y tone - Lupen-rein D - höher als Hohe C! . And what an ACTOR he is - was für ein Schauspieler! All 7 mts singing, dancing, gesticulating, moving with fantastic ease and natural feeling for what every scene demands. - And he is 11!

And angel, a cristal-clear voice.. What a voice! What a high D! Mozart himself would be proud of this production. Bravo Alan, and thanks Seddius for posting this :)
