Your beautiful comment is so realistic, I'm speechless. Thank you ! 🙏👍

@@draculasjester4951 Beautiful is your comment! Thanks to you!

Her voice is really powerful ,vocalization is spectacular very good

True! No words to describe her magnificentcy...

She wouldn't "tower" over the orchestra if she sang it like a classical singer...without a microphone.

@@golden-63 - THE MIX IS OKAY BY YOU TUBE STANDARDS, IN FACT EXCELLENT FOR A YOU TUBE VIDEO, SINGING WITHOUT A MIC IS A INTERESTING NOVELTY, FOR A MOMENT, IN A SINATRA TO BUBLE' CONCERT, TO SHOW THE BEAUTY OF A NAKED VOICE, EVEN IF LOST IN A BIG HALL, OR IN THE GREAT OPERA HOUSES, BUT TO GET A GOOD, IN YOUR FACE, POWERFUL, UP FRONT, RECORDING LIKE THIS, REQUIRES A MIC, AND THE MIX IS GOOD.............IF THE PURISTS HAD THEIR WAY I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO ENJOY THIS MASTERPIECE FOR A THOUSAND HEARINGS, NOR WOULD ANY ONE ELSE, WITHOUT THAT MICROPHONE IT WOULD BE LOST FOR ALL TIME......... OH, NOW I JUST REALIZED WHO I'M TALKING TO, THE SAME MORON WHO HAS CRITICIZED HER ON MULTIPLE VIDEOS, AND DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THE HECK HE IS TALKING ABOUT ...........OK I'M DONE THEN.........

@@AVIDEOGAL It's not about being a purist. Children should not be singing heavy operatic aria. It carries a substantial risk of vocal damage to such young vocal cords.

@@golden-63 HOGWASH, AS LAURA HAS PROVEN, CROSSING OVER FROM BEING A CHILD PRODIGY INTO AN ADULT SUPERSTAR !!! DID YOU TAKE THE TIME TO MEASURE CELLULAR STRENGTH ON THE VOCAL CHORDS AND SURROUNDING APPARATUS, IF ANYTHING THEY ARE MORE RESILIENT ON SOMEONE YOUNGER, YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A TROLL WHO MAKES STUFF UP AND GOES OUT OF HIS WAY AND WON'T LET HER TOWER OVER AN ORCHESTRA WITHOUT CUTTING HER DOWN, IF ANYTHING SHE DOESN'T PRACTICE ENOUGH, FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND ABOUT HER DAILY ROUTINE FROM INTERVIEWS, YOU HAVE PROVEN YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, AND ARE JUST A NEGATIVE TROLL, WHO NEEDS TO GET A LIFE, MEANWHILE LAURA GOES ON GETTING STRONGER, AS AN ADULT, WHO IS NO LONGER A CHILD, HAVING SUFFERED NO DAMAGE FROM TRAINING UNDER 18, PROVING ALL YOU NEGATIVE TROLLS WRONG !!! NOW GO AWAY AND LEAVE THE GIRL ALONE, WHY DON'T YOU GO WORK AT A UNIVERSITY WHERE ALL YOUR AUTHORITARIAN BULL CRAP IS ACCEPTED !!!

@@AVIDEOGAL *You do NOT know more about this than someone with 3 degrees in music and who has been a professional classical singer for 38 years.*

Ma bucur ca vad un comentariu apreciativ din partea cuiva competent in domeniu la adresa unei tinere voci geniale nascuta pentru opera. Umila mea parere este ca vocea Laurei este de fapt vocea absoluta a mileniului trei. Stau uneori si ma intreb cum ar suna aceasta voce minunata dupa definitivarea studiilor muzicale de specialitate. Eu cred ca ar putea deveni cea mai tanara diva, vocea absoluta ...

You hear a little bit of "Callas" in her voice because Laura and Maria Callas have a darker kind of vocal timbre but I see also the singing style of Angela Gheorghiu ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ht51rcyjsNiYoJ8.html ). Keep in mind that Laura has no proper opera vocal training. Laura at 15 years old has an unmatched native voice, better than Callas or other professional opera singer. Just imagine how her voice will sound in the future if she will have a proper opera vocal training ...

@@vladtepes5180 - ANGELA IS DARKER IN THAT CLIP CAUSE SHE DYED HER HAIR !!! I THOUGHT LAURA WAS GETTING SOME GOOD TRAINING AROUND THE TIME OF NICOLETTA !!!

@@AVIDEOGAL Laura get some good training from Nicoleta, but the truth is more complicated than you can imagine. In fact Laura wasn't singing pure opera because she didn't use specific opera singing techniques. Even now, after 5 years Laura doesn't know those techniques, at all. I think Nicoleta was forbidden to really initiate Laura into the true art of classical music. It seems that whoever really decided the career path for Laura didn't like the idea of Laura becoming a professional opera singer. Watch carefully the first 2 minutes of this interview and the mystery is solved ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iJh8fLCamZ62o6s.html ). Children can't lie ... Now, Laura has serious voice problems. See for yourself ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ht14Z9iF2N_Hkac.html ), and this is not because she ate too much ice cream.

OPERAS ARE EUROPEAN PHONE BOOKS !!! ------------ ACTUALLY, PEOPLE HER AGE PROBABLY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT PHONE BOOKS ARE........

AND GOD HAS BLESSED US WITH THE GIFT TO HEAR WHAT THE WORLD CANNOT HEAR YET, ONLY AN ULTRA SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE APPROX 8 BILLION ON EARTH, MAYBE THEY WILL CATCH UP TO US SOMEDAY, BUT OPERATIC VOICES TAKE SOME MUSICAL MATURITY TO APPRECIATE, SO MAYBE THEY WON'T, EITHER WAY LAURA IS STILL THE BEST OF ALL TIME, IF MARIA WERE STILL ALIVE I'M SURE LAURA WOULD BE GRACIOUS ENOUGH TO GIVE HER SOME LESSONS !!!

You are kidding, correct?

@@stefanodepeppo You are brilliant. 😆 Your comment is confirmation of the saying "ignorance is bliss" or "blessed are the poor in spirit". 😇

I AGREE. I THOUGHT OPERA WAS GONE WHEN PAVORATTI PASSED, BUT IT WAS JUST PASSED TO MISS LAURA

I could not agree more...

In fact Laura didn't have "Bel Canto" training, not at all. She begun to perform opera by herself and later she had a light and short vocal guidance from mezzosoprano Nicoleta Roman (one hour weekly for about a year). Nothing more ...

@@vladtepes5180 I think what he meant is that Laura's voice has that special "bel canto" naturally! god's gift!

@@karadeniz3266 Yes, it's exactly what @Vlad Tepes meant. Laura discovered the "Bel Canto" touch of her voice by herself, trying to adapt her "puberty voice" for a better sound. She started a light classical vocal training (one hour weekly) shortly before RGT performance, and her mentor was the Romanian/American mezzosoprano Nicoleta Roman. In my opinion, this was the best period of Laura's post AGT career, and the vocal training with Nicoleta Roman was exactly what she needed to enter the world of classical music, especially opera, as a future and undeniable diva. Also, this "Vissi D'Arte" is the apex of Laura's musical career.

@@draculasjester4951 - YES ABSOLUTELY HER GREATEST PERFORMANCE TO DATE, AND AT ONLY 15, AMAZING !!! SHOUT OUT TO THE JESTER !!! - 6-9-22 - OR 9-6-22 FOR YOU EUROPEANS !!!

My sentiments exactly! This performance clearly demonstrates her growth and development...carried with grace and emotion. when Hollywood gives us a star; we get Miley Cyrus or Brittany Spears but when God sends us a star we get Ms. Laura Bretan

No. She is NOT "one of the three top sopranos performing today." She's a teenager.

@@golden-63 Not yet, but her voice is unique and native better than any female professional opera singer. If she will master her vocal technique, at maturity she will blow away not only "the three top sopranos performing today", but the whole opera vocal hall of fame, ever.

Why is a 15 yr old singing Tosca?

@@golden-63 Vissi d'arte" requires maturity and experience in the pain life hands up to us. I pray that Ms. Bretan comes back to Tosca when she too has felt the pain of life and can add that emotion to her performance...everything else is already there...she is wonderful

Not only beautiful, this was phenomenal. 🎶💖 What I find fantastic is that Laura performed this entire concert without even knowing the vocal techniques used in heavy classical music (opera). This is the unbelievable truth. Laura is natural and unique !

Is she not the best the most beautiful voice I have heard,💓❤️💓 Australia

She's beautiful, and undoubtedly the best young soprano I ever heard.

@@johnrunia4574 I think at the end of the comment you had to put the question sign "?" for the phrase to make sense.

Specially if you know she is only 15 years

@@jorgecalvo8460 Laura has the most phenomenal native voice I've ever heard, a real and enormous gift from The Creator Himself. Also, before RGT and AGT she didn't have any vocal training, she started to perform opera by herself trying to imitate celebrities on KZfaq or from records. Laura virtual opera idols are Angela Gheorghiu, Virginia Zeani and Maria Callas. Laura's vocal timbre is very similar to that of Maria Callas and the interpretative style is similar to that of Angela Gheorghiu.

Floria Tosca closing aria was expressing the pain of life and why God abandoned her. Callas and the tragedies in her life was able not only sing Tosca but to become to become Tosca. Laura, at her tender age makes grown men cry but I do hope after she has experienced more of life she will come back to revisit Tosca. We are witnessing the beginning of a stellar career that will recognize her as the Bel Canto soprano of the 21st century

@@LiloUkulele - THE POTENTIAL IS TANTALIZING, BUT THE INTEREST IN OPERA, UNFORTUNATELY, HAS PROVEN TO BE MINIMAL...

BUT IS PRONOUNCED "LAURA BRETAN" !!!

@John De Bock - YES, THE MOST TALENT EVER GIVEN TO ONE HUMAN BEING I'M AFRAID, MORE TALENT THAN ALL THOSE IN ALL THE TV TALENT SHOWS COMBINED, HOPE GOD DOESN'T LET IT ALL DESTROY HER !!! FOR EXAMPLE, JACKIE WAS THE ORIGINAL PIONEER IN 2010 OF THE MINI DIVA, AND CUTE ENOUGH TO IMPRESS AS A NOVELTY FOR A FEW MINUTES, WITH HER MODICUM OF TALENT, BUT THEN CAME ALONG THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME, IN THIS MEGA-MONSTER REVELATION, THE TYPE OF LEGEND THAT MAKES YOU DROP TO YOUR KNEES AND PRAISE GOD THAT YOU WERE BORN IN THE SAME GENERATION, WHO LITERALLY BLOWS ANY PRO OFF THE STAGE, WORLD WIDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@AVIDEOGAL And now, after singing that commercial music stuff for years, Jackie's voice is just a pale shadow.

@@vladtepes5180 - EXACTLY !!! I PUT ON AN OLD CD OF HERS RECENTLY IN THE CAR, BUT NOW AFTER LAURA SHE IS UNLISTENABLE, PITCHY, NOT GOOD... LAURA IS LITERALLY ABOUT A MILLION TIMES MORE GIFTED !!!

@@AVIDEOGAL I'm @Vlad Tepes on my 2-nd channel. I always said that Laura has to master her vocal technique by following a conservatory and masterclass lessons with a competent teacher. I have to comment a little about your last phrase : Laura was gifted once by The Creator but a masterclass wise teacher can bring to light another million vocal colors because her voice is very versatile.

@@draculasjester4951 HEY VLAD, I'VE ALWAYS SAID THE PERFECT TEACHER FOR LAURA WOULD BE CECELIA, SHE IS WINDING DOWN HER OWN CAREER AND WOULD BE PERFECT FOR LAURA, JUST WISH SHE WOULD STEP UP !!!

Who said she is amazing?… 😳

She isn't an opera singer.

@@golden-63 So what is she?

@@heatherwatson4545 She sings mostly pop music with a few operatic arias thrown in. That's not what an opera singer is. Opera is a theatrical production and no microphones.

@@golden-63 You're right ... for now... She is not yet an opera singer, not officially anyway ... She is still too young to be. Laura performed mostly opera arias and classical gospel. her pop performances were fewer. I really hope that Laura will focus on opera. I don't think she really needs a microphone ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m81zrat-sZvccmw.html ), especially now when her voice has become more mature. Of all the young candidates who have played opera at talent shows, Laura is the only one who has the vocal characteristics to perform the real pure opera/ real opera.

Callas was far past her prime in 64 and was in the midst of a vocal crisis. The two shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence.

You are kidding, correct?

...

Yes the first time I watched this I screamed you idiot!!!!!!!

Nicoleta Roman should be SLAPPED for allowing a teenager to sing Vissi D'arte. And with a microphone?

@@golden-63 Slapped ? I think it is a little too extreme, and nobody knows if Nicoleta Roman agreed or not. I don't know even she was there or not ... I think it was Laura's decision. The building is not an opera house, it is a common space (hall) with poor/bad acoustics for opera or musical concerts. Laura (15 yo) performed Vissi D'Arte inside a church in Jerusalem without a microphone. Reckless, I know, but impressive ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNx0eManxrCog4E.html ). At least she proved that her vocal chords are very resilient and flexible.

@@vladtepes5180 She's still WAY too young to be singing Tosca.

@@golden-63 Yes, I know but she already did it. What is done, remains done. No one can reverse that. I don't know exactly how many times she did it, but I think there was 3 or 4 times. I also think she imitate Angela Gheorghiu or Maria Callas from YT. I recognized some of Angele Gheorghiu performing style.

Then you are nothing more than a dilettante.

All your life ? How old are you ?

@@vladtepes5180 Vlad the Music Impaler: In my late 60s. 'Nuff said.

@@Apada64 You make it sound like a pejorative. Look, I don't have a degree in music, can't carry a tune in a piss pot, can't play an instrument, neither can I teach a kid to play a cheap, plastic recorder. But I, at least, know good music when I hear it and I quite rightly am astonished when I hear young singers like Laura Bretan display talent well beyond her young age. And what are you - a doctorate of music at Julliard? Here's to the deleattants!

Cuanta razon tenes

"She is so far ahead of the next best opera singer." No. No, she isn't. She's a teenager and she can't sing without a microphone.

@@golden-63 I saw a lot of masterclass lessons and I'm proud to tell that Laura's voice quality surpass other singers, even pro because of her natural gift which is UNIQUE. I know Laura has yet to learn technics and tips, but can you imagine what happens if she becomes a professional opera singer ? It will be a musical massacre, nothing less. You are wrong, Laura sings beautifully without microphone dude, here you go ... enjoy and weep ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNx0eManxrCog4E.html ). Laura has the most powerful female voice, David Foster confirmed it in the final part of this clip, the proof is here ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h5qIi6iUmt_dmqc.html ). To be blunt and honest, comparing Laura's voice with the other female singers voices is wrong because Laura sounds like a lioness and the other female singers sound like starving skinny kittens.

@@vladtepes5180 If she has the "most powerful female voice", why does she need a microphone? Here's what an ACTUAL opera singer sounds like. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hcCYhM6rvb6Ym6c.html

@@vladtepes5180 And you do NOT know more than someone who has 3 degrees in music and has been a professional classical singer his whole life.
