That harmonica was given to him from his father when Dan was just 8 years old. That and his voice training far exceed the needs for this song. He sings from his heart. That is a sign of a performer who enjoys his abilities and wants to share them. There nothing like it.

CLASSICAL? Dan Vasc may be the best Classicalally trained voice in the world today. React to his cover of Nessun Dorma. I saw Pavarotti preform this in Miami in 1986. No one else has driven me to tears over this aria since,,,,, Until now.

Dan is one of my favorite male Vocalists. Never disappoints.

THE BEST version of this song! He has a beautiful voice and a beautiful heart!

Welcome to the Vasc Nation.. a wonderful rabbit hole to disappear into

DAN THE MAN

Dan shines through the whole song. He owns this song. Love the harmonica instead of bagpipes. It was very haunting. Dan is an amazing singer. I would say he is one of the best singers today. I don’t know why he is not an international superstar!!

So, this song has been WAY overdone for me, as a pastors kid, I've heard it SOOO many times in many variations. But, I gotta say, I can listen to this on repeat and each time, warm & fuzzies right to the end of the harmonica, then, goosebumps for the last 2 verses, especially the high note, and then the last long note! It is an absolutely amazing performance! Great reaction!!

Dan Vasc, Gehtsemane and Phantom of the Opera and Burn Butcher Burn. A man of many talents.

Dan is the best ❣️❣️❣️

I love vocal coach reactions most, as they appreciate the training represented, the range displayed and techniques employed.

I'll repeat what so many others have already said. Dan is phenomenal. His preferred genre is metal but he really can sing -anything- and make each song his own! If you think he reached high notes here, you should definitely check out some of his other work. Right now for high notes his cover of "Burn Butcher Burn" comes to mind There's a lot more 'metal' in that one, but even when he does the fry screams, somehow it's still singing and not screaming. Join the rest of us down here in the Dan Vasc rabbit hole. It's a journey you won't regret!

Dan holds for 20 seconds, I timed it LOL. Thanks for your reaction. I subscribed for more.

Thank you for recognizing that last held note…so many don’t give it the credit it deserves. I think he could hold his breath under water for 10 minutes. THAT is an exceptionally trained voice by a gifted artist. He is a wonder to behold. If you watch him in podcasts, he’s also an exceptional, kind, philosophical human being.

Also, check out his Music of the Night.

Dan showed off several of his singing abilities in this classic hymn. I particularly enjoy watching how he decides to interpret songs and make them his own.

To understand why he sounds so classical, remember he is a power metal singer first and foremost. That's a very classically inspired style. He's had classical training, too. To see where he's coming from, try Dawn of Victory ft. Fabio Lione. Dan got to sing that one with the original singer, one of his idols. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z99pl7Si3K_Glnk.htmlsi=pkX9dWL8z4ZhkDh_

Dan sings everything from opera to metal and every one of his videos are amazing. Dan has a very large and loyal fan base. Just mention his name and they will watch. Just so you know, Dan is a vocal coach and knows how to protect his voice. In one video, he holds a scream for 30 sec. Thank you for your reaction.

Welcome to Vasc Nation. Dan's talent is truly incredible. He sings across all genres and never disappoints. He is also totally addictive! Please check out his rendition of 'Gethsemane' from 'Jesus Christ Super Star' I've seen it on stage three times and there's simply no comparison. He is classically trained and covers all sorts which makes him so interesting. All harmonies, which of course you'd realise, are him, e.g. Bohemian Rhapsody and Handel's Hallelujah Chorus (oh yes!). His studio is his garage, he does his own camera work, honestly I could go on and on. Btw, his father gave him the harmonica when he was younger, which he treasures. His father died a while back and 5 days after he did 'An American Trilogy' of Elvis songs, his dad loved Elvis! There are so many you can react to but the heaviest I've seen to date is 'Bring me to Life' Evanescence cover. Loved your reaction - please keep them coming . . .best wishes from a new subscriber!

Go down the Dan Vasc rabbit hole❤️🙏🙏🙏

Most of Dan Vasc's songs aren't just fun to listen to; he always keeps us guessing, surprising us time and time again. You can never anticipate what's coming next because he has so many different choices to use his beautiful versatile voice. I suggest you this song: "I'll Make a Man Out of You" METAL COVER - Mulan. I am sending you the link because there is another one floating around with the same name for small children. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNlnoNtkqs3NdIk.htmlsi=nE59VA7tK3rC_no- I'm sure you' will smile again.

Dan sings this song with emphasis on wretch and see, he is a Christian. 😊 He has held a last note for 30.4 seconds. I timed it. 😂 I really loved your reaction and enthusiasm!!!❤❤❤

The harmonica was given to Dan, who was also a musician, at age 7. He passed away a few years ago from cancer. His favorite singer was Elvis and Dan did "An American Trilogy" as a tribute to him. Here's the link. Enjoy! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbymhrd325jWiac.html

Loved your reaction to this fabulous performance. This is the song that got me down the rabbit hole of Dan Vasc and I have loved every minute or I should say-every hour of it.😊

I love how he really captured the steps of confidence. What a journey! And that last note hold, wow wow wow. He even captured the patience needed for the next part of the journey. Great review! BTW, your singing voice is pretty.

Amazing Dan.

Please listen to Dan Vasc's version of I'll Make A Man out of you from Mulan or Burn Butcher Burn. Both songs are epic.

Your reaction was so enjoyable. If you want Disney try I'll Make a Man Out of You cover. If you want classical and "traditional like Nessum Dorma or Adeste Fideles. If you enjoy the Witcher series, he covers them. Then classic hits collaboration like Kiss From a Rose, etc. He has over 200 songs PLUS he has a band Fearless that has released original music.Enjoy the rabbit hole whether for your videos or personal viewing.

Damn Dan!!!!

Thank you so much for your reaction to Dan's brilliant performance of Amazing Grace. I absolutely love watching reactions of the first time someone discovers Dan☺☺☺ you didn't disappoint!!! There truly aren't enough words to describe his genius 💗 There are over 240 videos on his channel. In those videos it is fun to watch him mature as a man and musician, excellence in both❣prepare to be addicted, it's wonderful...

Wow, you said it very well.... Dan Vasc will write "music history" on KZfaq with this outstanding song, maybe even beyond. I rarely run out of words but in this case........❤️❤️ And the journey continues. Keep watching songs by Dan Vasc, you won't be able to stop being amazed 😜. He just took a lot of cover songs from great bands and singers to another level. Many metal parts such. B. From Lady Gaga "poker face", then again very classic "Phantom of the Opera", soft songs "you are loved" (Don't Give up). I could go on like this all the time now 😆. There really is something for every taste in music. Promised. I look forward to further reactions from you. 🤟

Thank you so much for your kind reaction to this wonderful rendition from Dan Vasc, a truly gifted artist. He sings in every genre from opera to heavy metal and has many epic songs on his channel. His cover of “Nessun Dorma” is beautiful and he also covers “Hallelujah Chorus” by Handel with him singing twenty four layers to make a most memorable experience. I look forward to seeing more from him on your channel soon. 🎶🌟🎶

Thank you for reviewing this. This is done so beautifully and it is so wonderful to watch someone review it who knows what it takes to produce this.

HE IS AMAZING....OMG. MY FUNERAL SONG...

Thanks!

I've watched MANY reactions to this song & I have to say yours is the most on point to this song. Great job!!! Dan Vasc is the TOTAL PACKAGE!!! He's got the beautiful hair, dreamy eyes, handsome all over & with that absolutely gorgeous talented range in his wonderful voice! This man knows how to give me chills all over! I FELT every word & emotion of this song. I love how absolutely tender, raw & delicate he started the song even with the slight echo & with each verse exposing more talent & intensity. Dan Vasc has a God given talent that he has perfected over years of hard work into what it is today, devine & magnificent!!! He sang this song the way it was MEANT to be sung with such RESPECT, emotion & with a POWERFUL impact. I FELT the presence of GOD!!! This is the absolute very BEST version of 'Amazing Grace' that I've EVER heard in my ENTIRE life & I'm old (LOL). God BLESS Dan Vasc for sharing his wonderful talent & this video with the world! This is something the entire world could use more of if they only would do just that... use & show God's Amazing Grace! 💕🎶✝️🎶💕

Loved your reaction to Dan Vasc! He posted this video as a Happy Easter greeting this spring and he's received over 6 million views so far. This was my unexpected introduction to Dan's fantastic talent. He sings metal (of course) but also sings songs from Broadway musicals (Phantom of the Opera, The Greatest Showman, Jesus Christ Superstar), opera, and so much more. This musical journey has been a total delight. I'm excited to hear more of your reactions to Dan's music.

He holds that last note I believe around 21 seconds. Incredible ending.

A tropical storm, earthquake and Dan Vasc. Quite the Saturday. Ask for Vasc! His catalogue is as redonkulous as his vocals, so enjoy. As a Vocal Coach, you might be interested in Dan bcoming Handel's Hallelujah Chorus, or his Andrew Lloyd Webber collection, male covers of female songs, and Disney goes metal...

Thanks for all the genuine compliments for our Dan!! I just subscribed to ur channel! Great review!❤️

PERFECTION.

God showed up! Dan is loved by many. Thank you Father God for Dan what a sweet man. Sending love from America 😊❤❤😊

Whenever I watch a reaction to this video, (and from a vocal coach, especially, because you guys can really, really appreciate all aspects of the performance and his incredible talent) I feel like jumping up and down and saying “see… see?? Look at this! oh wait for this part! oh, you’re gonna love this next thing he does!” Good thing I can’t actually do that, you’d get so annoyed at me before the end. lol!!! I loved every one of your delighted exclamations over Dan’s rendition of this wonderful hymn. ♥️♥️♥️

I have subscribed and hit the "All Notifications" button. You have my respect! I've only seen one other vocal coach that has even come close to how you perceived what went on throughout this lovely progression by Dan Vasc. The other one is "The Charismatic Voice." If the two of you were to get together and combine your two reactions, you would each fill in the few tiny points that the other hadn't seen, and the picture would be about as perfect (in my opinion) as it could get...on a technical basis. You even spoke of something that pretty much goes missing in just about every reaction I've seen yet (and that's well over 100, at this point). There have been a few who have seen it--or at least part of it. You spoke of the "journey" that has been portrayed in this video, and you are correct, though it's more than the "technical" journey of a great and powerful singer, showing off at least SOME of his capabilities in an ascending manner--even to the crescendo of triumph, back down through the decrescendo of final, enduring understanding and peace. The personal (Dan's), spiritual journey that is portrayed throughout this song, is really the key to the entire success of the song in its completeness...not JUST the techniques and well-learned and wonderful, superb vocal and presentational superiority that Dan reveals throughout. At the start of the song, Dan portrays the very beginnings of the realization that God's Grace is real, and quite amazing. belief in that grace, that has "only just begun." (Check out the old Carpenters song, "We've Only Just Begun," which speaks of "white lace and promises...") You noticed that as the next step occurs and the orchestration begins, his chin goes up, his "vocal security" begins to grow, and we see a slight appearance of vocal experience and strength. This also signifies the fact that his inward/spiritual journey has also begun to solidify, strengthen, and carry him onward. Then he moves up the octave, into what is pretty much into his "native" range, plus his stance has become even more firm, and his strength and stamina (both physical AND spiritual) become more firm. The harmonica (which I'm sure you've read about in the other comments by now) was (as you so astutely noticed--thank you) accompanied by that iconic "Celtic" drumbeat. What you missed, was that the sound Dan emits (on purpose) through that harmonic, is more-than-vaguely connected to the bagpipes that are often added during the song, when it is used in a funeral setting--especially if there is a military element entwined. Spiritually, this is Dan's last homage in his version of this song, to a funeral setting. I saw you watching his eyes, in the earlier parts, as he let them wander during the phrase, "...was lost," but then settled them resolutely for the phrase, "...I see." The important thing, throughout the remainder of the song, is that once the funeral setting has been "put to rest," appropriately, Dan enters "full submission" to the inner sight that has occurred. He only opens his physical eyes again, for a very short moment, once, throughout the rest of the song...yet he very STRONGLY and proudly declares, "...NOW I SEEEEEEEE!!!" Then he drops back down to the NEW quiet, yet very strong, peace in his soul (his mind, his will, and his emotions). He has come to grips with, and vocalizes his agreement with God's inner peace, that is so freely given. Then, as he regathers his strength, in the power of durability, not militancy, he begins to carry that last breath forward, with the addition of the personal triumph, "...I see.....AHAAAA!....." That entire phrase times out at 25 seconds. All of that said, I would LOVE to see you react to Dan and Luis Mariutti (you might want to look up Luis' origins before reacting) presenting the very simplistic yet triumphant "Black Wind, Power, and Steel." You might also want to check out the lyrics, at AZ Lyrics before reacting, and do NOT stop at the fade-to-black moment at the end of the music. It's very important to hear Dan's outros...especially in that one. Seriously. 😀

Thank you!! I don't usually like the reactions from vocal coaches cause all they seem to do is try to impress us with their knowledge instead of really speaking of his amazing ability. But not you. Your reaction and analysis of his vocals was never boring nor annoying. Please never change the way you do this! Absolutely loved it!! ❤ Just another note, if you really wanna see how long he can hold notes check out his version of "Black wind, fire and steel". It will absolutely blow you away!!

As to the long note, listen to Black Wind Fire and Steel, he holds the last note for 32 seconds I timed it!

It's the feelings and emotions with his amazing voice that captures the words and song perfectly❤❤ thankyou for your great reaction xx

I absolutely loved your reaction! Dan's skill is unsurpassed in my opinion and constantly amazes me. I hope you will follow so many of us down the Dan Vasc rabbit hole to vascnation. It's quite a wonderful trip. ❤

Dan is awesome! He can sing opera to metal and everything in between! I love all his covers! He has a softer side that goes with the metal. Check out his page and you will definitely find something you will like. Good review and looking forward to more from Dan! 🎶

He sounds controlled gospel & controlled metal. Since I heard this well-executed hymn, I've become a Dan Vasc fan! Thanks for reviewing his talent!!

❤ Dan will truely surprise you by just what all he capable of.... welcome to Dan Nation.... ❤

Yeah we got lucky down here in San Diego as most of the rain missed us. Unfortunately you guys up in LA got our portion of the rain on top of your allowance LoL. Dan has a beautiful voice and is classically trained so he has a great understanding of how to contol his voice and breathing. You shoukd check out his cover of Beauty and the Beast as well as I'll Make a Man out of You.

Yours was the best analysis I've watched yet! Dan is beyond phenomenal!!

Dan Vasc is one of the ultimate best God put on earth

Great reaction. I think I’ve watched a hundred of these. I loved this. Dan Vantastic!

Dan is absolutely awesome! 💖 Please react to his version of Gethsemane from the musical Jesus Christ Superstar! It is a very difficult song to perform well and Dan is unbelievable! 😮

This performance has been "amazing" since he released it and I enjoy watching folks as yourself see it, hear it and react to it with professional critique. Well done and glad you enjoyed it. Dan is truly in a different league.

Wow! Great reaction! I recommend that you watch and react to his cover of "Music if the Night" from Phantom, it's absolutely beautiful!!

Thanks for the reaction. I enjoyed watching you. Dan is so dynamic.

You are the first Professional singer\teacher\coach that I have seen to get as emotional as I did hearing this. Me a little more as I was weeping but, you get the concept. Being a 68 year old drummer\pianist with some Bass and Guitar over the years I wish (just me) that Vocal coaches would listen to the entire song first for the viewers and THEN go back and break down the song for the singers etc. It would add a few minutes to the vid but I believe you all would get more views and students. IMHO of course. Seeing that you are very emotional about your craft.. Subscribed! And thank you.

React to Dan's Bring Me To Life, he's better than the original. And you'll really get to hear his range & talent. Dan shows emotions when he sings. Btw he's Brazilian.

Dan is amazing!!!

Love your reaction, btw!! Great analysis!! ❤❤❤

BEST renditionI've ever heard ..I saw somewhere that last note was held for 23 seconds. Amazing God given talent.. Check out Angels We Have Heard on High ..in 4 different languages. I'm an 80 yr old lady who was never fond of metal, but I am now a fan

I loved your reaction. After watching his video over 100 times, I still get tears in my eyes. Dan is fluent in at least 3 languages and sings in many more. Adeste Fidelis is in Latin. Angels We Have Heard on High is in Italian, German, Portuguese and English with a Latin chorus. He also has a song in Japanese and another in Spanish.

His cover of “Nessum Dorma” will leave you speechless! His vocal range is incredible. He could sing the New York City phone book and make you tingle 😅

I loved your phenomenal reaction to Dan’s Amazing Grace! Great comments and loved hearing your thoughts on Dan’s technique and expressions. Thank you so very much for your love and support for Dan!!!! ❤️🤗❤️

You said it all . He is special

Awesome reaction. Please more Dan Vasc 🔥🔥🔥

Yours is the first reaction I've seen that points out the thumbnail on his video. From his face in the thumbnail you KNOW there's some metal coming eventually! I'm glad someone noticed that.

He is so awesome and such art and talent in this song! Your reaction was great!

Dan can sing the phone book, Hé's voice is AMAZING, YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT MORE Thanks for your reaction. 💞💞💞💞Listen to he's last note.

You want to know what else you can check out of Dan’s? All of them. He has a very extensive collection, and all of them are just as good. I appreciate you.

I'm happy to see yet another vocal coach reaction - my nerdy (although non-musical) soul enjoys watching people who actually understand what he's doing - and how he's doing it - talk about what he's doing. Looking forward to more reactions from you. He has a wide range of videos out there to take your mind off the hurricanes and earthquakes!

I’m a new fan of yours now, great reaction 👍🏻

I loved your reaction and your analysis. Dan is unbelievable. Listen Handel's Halleluiah (One Man Choir), Adeste Fidelis and Sleeping Sun (Karla Bessa's channel), is so beautiful. Welcome Vasc Nation. ❤ Rio-Brazil

I don't normally watch vocal coach's reaction. However, I thoroughly enjoyed yours.😊

Great reaction!❤ Dan actually sings some classical pieces. Also, I would like to suggest from the musical Jesus Christ Superstar "Gethsemane". The way he sings and his performance on that video is awesome!

Thank you for reacting to Dan! He is absolutely incredible!! You should also react to Small Town Titans!

Dan is actually a vocal coach himself and has offered lessons. He's had MANY years of classical training and the harmonica was a gift from his late father when he was around 6/7 years old, so that in itself holds an emotion of its own. He has a FANTASTIC voice and can sing nearly any style and has a massive range without damaging his vocal chords. I also love how smooth he can switch from his "chest" voice to his "head" voice. ❤❤❤ you should really watch his version of Music Of The Night from The Phantom Of The Opera.

The Harmonika ist from His Dad❤

❤ Dan! More please!

Sensacional ❤❤ além de lindo

Great reaction! You Really want to Jump? Watch his Burn Witcher Burn, from the Witcher Game/series.

Your reaction to Dan singing Amazing Grace was super fun to watch,you described his talents so well. I discovered Dan a couple of months ago he is an amazing singer Go check his covers he does all types of songs.

Just the tip of the iceberg for Dan Vasc.

I love the genuine reactions when he showed his metal side.

Dan Basc is incredible ❤

Like many others, I've heard this song performed so many times, some very good, others passable, but many just plain painful. Daniel brings something completely different, unique and beautiful to the story. His vocal choices throughout are equally pleasing and surprising. When he opens that magnificent chest and just lets rip, all of the hours of dedicated and disciplined training come to the fore. The choice to include the harmonica I believe was a dedication to his father (he passed away a few years ago), who gifted him the instrument when he was about 7 years old. This young man can, and does, sing everything from full operatic arias, "Nessun Dorma" to Christmas tunes in operatic style and languages other than his native Brazilian Portuguese, to absolute metal, to 80s pop/rock, to show tunes from the likes of Disney. Each one is performed with a pure love of the music. Dan has collaborated with other performers, such as Orion's Reign and the Finnish metal band OD. He has his own metal band FEARLESS, with their full album 'The Chronicles Of Ancient Wisdom" on the channel and available through his website and streaming platforms. Some of my personal favourites in no particular order: "Dr Stein" - Helloween. "Dr Feelgood" - Motley Crue. "Breaking The Silence" - duet with Erik Gronwall, lead singer of H.E.A.T. and Skidrow "Rise" - H.E.A.T. "Black Wind Fire and Steel" - with Manowar bassist Luis Mariutti and his magical flying fingers... "Dawn Of A New Day" - performed with Fabio Leone from Rhapsody Of Fire. "I'll Make A Man Out Of You" - Disney's Mulan. "Bring Me To Life" - Evanescence "My Immortal" - Evanescence "Lithium" - Evanescence "An American Trilogy" - Elvis Presley, dedicated to the passing of Dan's father just 5 days prior,,,the emotions still so very raw... "You'll Be In My Heart" - Phil Collins from the Disney's version of Tarzan. "Phantom Of The Opera" & "Music Of The Night" - A.L.W's Phantom of the Opera. "Gethsemane" - ALW's Jesus Christ Superstar. "Kiss From A Rose" - Seal, a duet with Violet Orlandi. "Fairytale" - Shaman, a tribute to the passing of Brazilian metal maestro Andre Matos. Dan has a surprise in his video, "I Give Up Making Videos"... I'll not spoil it for you, but it's every bit as fabulous as all of the other work he has on his channel. I could go on, however, I should leave some for you to discover yourself... Dan has a very comprehensive catalogue of covers on his channel, and it is well worth spending some considerable time perusing the over 240 performances. Take a very long rope and enjoy the dive into the rabbit hole of Daniel Vasconcelos aka Dan Vasc...😁 🙃🐨🇦🇺

Your reaction was wonderful! 🥰 Dan has incredible talent. It's obvious he isn't 'random' carefully planning out his approach and delivery - - - and what a delivery 🎶🎶🎶🎶 Another of my favorites by Dan is his *I'll Make A Man Out Of You* from Disney's Mulan 🤪 Seriously amazing and so much personality 😉 Very balanced man. His father would be so proud. Please also have a look/listen to *Pour Some Sugar On Me* Def Leppard cover 😁 Dan shines at every level. Again thank you and I've subscribed. 🌺

That was a great reaction to a great rendition of a great song!

Yup you are taking the plunge into vascland! Amazing singer! Check out his rendition of poker face!

In my many travels watching Dan Vasc, it was explained that the harmonica was his father’s. Love the reactions this fantastic singer is getting! He’s truly amazing!

DAN ! ! ! DAMN ! ! ! MY FAVE REACTION HAHAHA epic as dan always says!

I absolutely LOVE Dan's interpretation of this classic and beloved hymn!! He's got so much vocal and breath control! IMHO, he's the best tenor out there right now! The harmonica really gets me, too because my precious Granny played it beautifully. As I grew up we'd gather around the piano as a family, I'd play (and sing alto or 2nd soprano) and she'd play harmonica, while the rest of the family joined in. Priceless memories! I truly believe that all of Heaven stopped to listen when Dan sung this! God put him here to give people hope during these tumultuous times when there is so much fear, hatred, and despair in the world. Thank you for your opinion on this! I've heard this performed thousands of times throughout my lifetime and can say that he knocks it out of the ballpark!! No one even comes close to this performance!! ✝️ ❤️ 📖 🙏🏼 🕊 #AmazingLove #AmazingGrace #GodIsGood #forgiven #redeemed #JesusSaves #John316 #ForeverFamily #loveoneanother #bekind #bethelight #TheWorshipChannel #KingdomLiving #DanVasc #VascNation #DantheManVasc

Great reaction!

You should watch Music of the Night by Dan Vasc

Welcome to the magic known as Dan Vasc! I've been listening to him for three years now, since I first heard The Sound of Silence, and I love everything he's done. Reactions to all of his songs would be nice, especially the Era covers.

If heaven has a rock band he's the lead singer, loved your reaction!

Love this guy
