@Scotsbell This young lady made this film in 1937 or thereabouts, and went on to become the world-famous opera singer Beverly Sills. Check out some of her videos her as an adult, and be amazed!

Am ashamed to admit I'd never heard of this young lady!! Fab voice and to tackle that piece of music at 8!!

you dan say that again!!!!

This makes me smile. Her smile, the joy in her eyes, her gestures, her cute little head movements, all a promise of the beautiful artist that was to come. Warms my heart. Some people just have it.

Beverly Sills, child of the Depression, a Shirley Temple who could sing opera! This is such a treat to see. Thank you for sharing. R.I.P. Beverly Sills the greatest of them all...how many other opera singers of her day could do that at age 8 ?????
-
Yes - this is what really means to be gifted instead of merely talented.
-
She was charming and lovely. It is amazing that at the age of 8 she was not simply singing quite well, but also giving emotion and character in to her performance, which makes a big difference than simply having a good voice with big resources.

Amazing!!!

Very interesting
Heck even at 8, she was already better than many sopranos today who call themselves opera singers!!

The technique is there but the voice is not quite developed yet -- so cute! She's by far my favorite opera singer of all time. You are greatly missed, a rare talent!!!
