EXCEPTIONAL VOICE




German Boy Soprano

(Click to watch on Youtube)


I had to sleep very late last night because I just couldn't stop replaying the youtube of a young German boy soprano singing the Queen of the Night's aria from the grand opera, "The Magic Flute." His voice is awesome!

He is an exceptionally gifted boy, who has a well rounded three, or maybe, four-octave voice range. Every opera enthusiast will agree that the particular aria is a highly-rated piece that only highly-trained coloratura sopranos with fine thrills and roulades can do justice to it. However, no matter how difficult the song, the boy made an extraordinary rendition with ease, as if just fine-tuning his vocal cord.

While listening to the magic voice, I was reminded of one long-ago artist, Madam Florence Foster Jenkins, who did a disastrous recording of the same song howling along each note with great pleasure.
