  • Beautiful!!

    Keep it up!

  • Another comment for this beautiful singer. The vibrato is very appealing and I am sure with time your voice will be even richer. A very natural voice and beautiful expression. This comment is coming from the land of song and voices (Wales). I hope to hear very good things about you, all the best DO NOT CHANGE TOO MUCH. Thanks

  • I have this song now omg I hope I am as great as she did

  • i really like your version better then mine:)

  • very very well done! brava!

  • Beautiful playing... very sensitive.

  • Beautiful. One of the most promising voices I have heard in a very very long time. Perfect cheekbones for a singer, too. Gorgeous tone quality -- I would love to know who your teacher is. Whoever it is has done a remarkable job in keeping your rather large voice in control. This is a very mature piece for a young singer, though. I would like to hear you doing more age appropriate material. You have your entire life to sing more mature works. Please keep posting!

  • Not bad at all for anyone, especially an 18 year old. Your tone is already very developed and mature and your vibrato is mostly consistent throughout. I would like to hear a warmer, richer, more colorful tone especially when you go into chest voice. Your upper register is gorgeous... great control! Good Luck.

  • The makeup and hairstyle and dress style make her look older, and the voice is powerful and well-handled already, but she has been playing violin since she was 3 years old and her parents are professional musicians. This girl Julia could live to be the next great mezzo of our time, provided she stays healthy. Beautiful voice, beautiful phrasing and interpretation. Check out her "Sure on this Shining Night" from the same concert.

  • She's 18? What the heck! Wow.
