Hauntingly Beautiful Voice!! DIANA ANKUDINOVA - Rechenka (Age 14) Reaction 

I do not know which vocal coach you saw but she does nothing with her tongue to squeeze her vocal chords (If you saw Peter Barber then that is exactly what he says too), her tongue is flat in her mouth, she just has that voice, she is a Contralto the deep voice IS her voice, she has a big laryngeal space, her vocal cords are thicker than the average female and also her mouth (the inside space) is huge, her resonators are different. So do not fret trying to imitate her because no one can sound like her, as she said her self you have to be born like her in order to sing like her. The melismas at the end of the phrases are staple in Eastern and southern European traditional music and songs, Sinéad O'Connor maybe inspired by southern/eastern European vocalizations not the other way around. This is an ancient folk song so the tribal vibes are expected.

Diana Ankudinova was born on May 31, 2003, and in 2023 she is now 20 years old, but in this performance of Rechenka which was video recorded on May 12, 2018, when Diana was only 14 years old when she was a contestant on a vocal competition called “You Are Super”. This performance had many vocal professionals already saying Diana was displaying a low, deep, and rich sound, and her stage presence was well beyond what most other 14 year old girls were capable of. During this May 12, 2018 performance of Rechenka on “You Are Super”, people were curious about Diana’s voice. The tone and the low, deep, and resonant quality of her voice had many asking about her vocal range, so I found the following information; the previous year, in 2017 when she was 13, and a year before the “You Are Super” competition took place, her vocal range was measured from a low of D3 to a high of A5 which puts her firmly as an Alto voice type which is low for a 13 year old girl. Diana did not have her vocal range checked again until 5 years later when she was 18 years old, during her appearance on a 9 week vocal competition called “ShowMaskGoOn” that premiered on September 25, 2021. Now, back to 2018 and “Rechenka”; for a 14 year old girl, Diana had an unusually low vocal register during her Rechenka performance. Her voice was noticeably deep, round, full and dark with a tone quality that was well beyond her years. Many vocal professionals were speculating based on this Rechenka performance that she could be a true Contralto in the making. She also had very good vocal control for a 14 year old, and her musicality was noticed by many vocal and performance professionals. Questions were being asked, and one of the most asked questions is how does she do it? How can such a young female singer achieve those low, rich, deep, profound, and resonant sounds? Without actually scoping her vocal tract while she is producing those low notes to actually see what is happening within her vocal tract, the general conciseness of many vocal professionals is simply to attribute Diana's ability to her winning the genetic lottery, meaning she was just born with unique vocal anatomy. Diana’s vocal folds, (vocal cords), appear to be longer and thicker than the majority of female singers. Her larynx (voice box) also appears to be larger than the majority of female singers, and her pharynx (throat) similarly appears to be longer than most other female singers. But it’s more that just being born with unique vocal anatomy, Diana knows how to use it. It’s in her musicality and stage presence. It is in her ability to step into and assume a character on stage. It’s in her ability to capture the audience and not just sing them a song, she can and does actually communicate with the audience on a personal level. Diana Ankudinova also sang these 3 additional cover songs during the 2018 season competition of “You Are Super” you should really listen to. I’m sure you will find these both interesting and unique: • February 10, 2018 "Dernière Danse" sung in French • April 14, 2018 It's a Man's Man's Man's World sung in English • May 25, 2018 (Season finale) Tomorrow is a Lie sung in English As a final note, Diana was the winner of the 2018 "You Are Super" competition.

Diana has a tough childhood, but thanks to her foster loving mother Irina Ponik ( you can see her in the video, woman in the glasses) everything has changed for the better ❤️ and we can get all wonderful emotions 🎵 thanks a lot for your reaction to our world 🌎 treasure 🎉 Diana Ankudinova! Like 👍

I'll recount this as best as a foreigner can from reading a few autotranslated comments as well as what some english speaking russians have talked about in the comments page of this video and it's many reactions: Igor Krutoy and Cº judges had requested that Diana sing something in russian, probably expecting a cover of some popular russian music, as to the date she had done foreign songs, like Derniere Dance, on this show. What they got was this, which is a very old, tribal, throwback to the very origins of the russian people, and a well known piece. It's sung in old russian if I'm not mystaken. To this day this very performance is considered the best child performance ever made in a talent show in Russia. To me it's special because at this age her voice had not yet dropped fully, as it does to all of us in puberty, and you have this exquisite mix of that young child voice and her rich deep natural tones which is different to her adult voice. Not better but different. She goes both lower and higher now, but her natural tone is lower. You can tell the judges were stunned. It's just a talent show, but what she sometimes brings is high art. For me, this, Can't Help Falling in Love and her recently done cover of the theme song from Dune, are the three most important performances to get her fully as an artist. Everything is good, don't get me wrong, but these song give us a fairly complete view. At least until she takes us somewhere else, she is only 20, and I have the feeling she is not done surprising us just yet. Voice for the ages.

Спасибо за реакцию на 💎Диану Анкудинову💎!!! Лайк!!! 👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you for your reaction to 💎Diana Ankudinova💎!!! Like!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

DIANA-SUPER VOICE!!!❤❤❤

Diana is known as the Queen of Goosebumps!!!

Это легендарное выступление Дианы можно спокойно отнести в золотой фонд её творчества!!! Спасибо вам!!! Вы классные!!!

One of my most favorite female singers so far ❤️❤️❤️ Her voice literally sounds like Goddess

Обязательно посмотрите выступление Дианы на ART OF HANS ZIMMER с кавером на саундтрек из DUNE и NO TIME TO DIE!

Nice reaction guys! thank you! Liked n subscribed. This Video is good for all kind of Sickness please watch and react to 4th Impact" a Filipino Girl Group on X Factor UK They sings "Bang Bang" (Jessie J, Ariana G. & Nicki M.). Sincere thanks.

🤗

Can you believe she tried out for the voice and no one turned in her blind audition. She was only like 12 and was doing an upbeat yodeling song and I think that was why no one turned but I bet the judges feel stupid now. I'm glad she kept going, she's amazing

Какое завораживающее действо!!! Диана оригинальна и неповторима!!! Респект!!!❤

I think an Angel is inside Diana's soul. A very powerful and very sad Angel.

DUNE SONG NEXT! 😮😮😮 Get it from her life channel and hold on to your hats !!! The most mega powerbelting ever recorded

In Russia, they have been singing like this (with such a singing technique) for more than 1000 years.

Diana Super ❤

I would attribute this masterpiece performance by Diana to the category of "shamanic" performances. Russian language adds extra beauty to it. Thank you for the reaction!

This is the story of an orphan. She is already more than a thousand years old. This is a short excerpt from it in the form of a song-story. In general, such songs (fairy tales, epics set to music) have existed among the Slavs for a long time. The girl has no family here. The Slavs believed that their family went to a sacred grove (world tree) and then the girl asked the forces of nature - Rod for blessings.

Diana's latest collaboration is with a full orchestra performing the theme song from the movie "Dune". This is a composition by Hans Zimmer who is famous for his very successful and innovative movie theme compositions. Dune is a sci-fi movie based on the first novel in the series of 5 or more massive novels by Frank Herbert that are probably one of the most read sci-fi series of novels ever written. If you thought that Rechanka, Can't help falling in love, or any of her other song interpretations were unique and special, well to put it bluntly, you ain't seen or heard anything until you see and hear Diana perform Dune in front of a full orchestra.

i love his voice ....sing about Heroes of The Red Army...

I have discovered that trying to analyze how she is capable of these abilities is completely unnecessary because just when you think you have figured it out, she will completely flip on you and have you scratching your head all over again trying to figure that out and as we all know it is Simply a gift given to her to share with us, and which that is what she does. Everyone tries to analyze her only to later discover they were incorrect. I watched probably performance she is ever done and she is constantly changing and the more you watch her, perform the more you realize to simply stop trying to analyze her and just enjoy her gift because there is a higher power involved here

Rechenka/ Little River You are a river, my little river. You flow, ceaselessly. you are a child, my baby (*Mother whisper) You sit there and don't smile. Oh, sweet girlfriends, yes, my loves, Oh, there's nothing to be happy about. Oh, nothing that makes me smile. We have horses, the yard is full, And the room is full of guests. I have neither father nor mother No one to bless me... Loss You are a river, my little river. You flow, ceaselessly. you are a child, my baby You sit there and don't smile. Folksong (lyric-text)

This is my favourite song by Diana

She is truly amazing! This is actually probably my most listened to song of hers. Her combo of singing and acting on stage is crazy for her age. Congrats again on the announcement!

Спасибо за прекрасную реакцию!!!Это для вас от Дианы и от нас Желаем счастья и здоровья!!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GOA9Fo7WKWg.htmlsi=zsM0PkcouL8RefLq ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4Dg6uzSw6Ak.htmlsi=t11H7hJCdZG96U2D Диане 15лет ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gmV5CQkZ3Lw.htmlsi=yH-Ze_xEEyTPWMy6 Джеймс Бонд !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Фантастическое исполнение песни Дианой! И отличная позитивная реакция! Диане - браво, а за реакцию - лайк и спасибо! И отдельное спасибо за добрые слова в адрес Дианы! Fantastic performance of the song by Diana! And a great positive reaction! Diana - bravo, and for the reaction - like and thank you! And special thanks for the kind words addressed to Diana!

This song is why we call her The Goddess Voice of Nature.

Yep, fiive years later its still enthralling and has not diminished a bit.

Diana is only 14 y.o. here !👸🌠🎤🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶👍🏽😍😍❤❤❤⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘

Name me a better female live vocal performance from the previous decade.

Спасибо за внимание к творчеству Дианы Анкудиновой.

This is the kind of old world story telling that I thirst for ❤

Dig into the actual story of the song to understand. An old fable of Russian folklore ❤

Замечательная аранжировка, интересная постановка сцены и потрясающий вокал юной Дианы слились воедино. С большим удовольствием вместе с вами в сотый раз прослушала эту песню. Спасибо за реакцию.

...лайк + подписка, понравилась реакция на нашу Диану, продолжайте в том же духе!!)))

🙏💕

Wonderful reaction! There are many directions you can go from here with Diana. Very recently she sang with an orchestra doing a tribute to Hans Zimmer. She sang 2 songs - "No Time You Die" and a song from the soundtrack of Dune. I suggest you listen to both: the Dune song is the tribal sound you like (in spades), and the James Bond song shows that she also has a large repertoire of non-tribal songs. Both songs are on her channel and short enough for over reaction. Probably the Bond song first ...

Una giovanissima stupenda Diana ❤❤❤

Diana Ankudinova World Superstar ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Diana Ankudinova!

Thanks like and subs for nice reaction to masterpiece by Diana!❤‍🔥💯👍🌷🌷🌷

She has a song YODELE TIME and I believe she performed that song at age 14. Another her song is YELLOW MOON, which she sounded like a voice of The Universe.

Hello! Very good reaction! Like from me! Isn't that great? Even without knowing the language, this performance of Diana causes goosebumps on the skin of any normal person, where he would not have been and in whatever country he lived! Good luck and all the best!

Saludos desde 🇻🇪 reaccionen más a Diana Ankudinova cantando el soundtrack de la película "Dune" y la canción de la película James Bond "No time to die" en el concierto realizado por Art of Hans Zimmer

A lot of thanks for your reaction! From Russia ❤

Diana!💫

I love Diana ❤❤❤ kisses from Italy 😘😘😘

Greetings from Scotland! Believe me, you cannot replicate what Diana does quite naturally, because she was born with a very special set of vocal apparatuses (yes, that's the correct word 😊) Larrynx, Pharynx and nasal resonators all different to us mere mortals. Some of this was due to Diana's extreme childhood circumstances. Read her Wikipedia entry! A unique phenomenon without equal in this world!

Hello. Thank you for this very good reaction. I've enjoyed it a lot. In my personal ranking this is the TOP TOP TOP music video OF ALL TIME. "A masterpiece of vocal and performance art for eternity". Simply DIVINE DIANA DIVA. Nothing left to say. All the best and greetings from Germany. 🌲 🌻 🌲 🌻 🌲

14 лет.Спасибо что Вы с нами

So happy to see you react to this, this is MY favourite Diana song and yes it sounds Tribal and meditative.

🔥💯👍👍👍👍👍💯🔥🤗🤝

Спасибо😍🥰😘

She’s a certified polyphonic dramatic contralto. She was orphaned and the song is about an orphan girl who speaks and sings to the river Rechenka about the fact she getting married and has no parents to attend and give her away. The river doesn’t answer but simply keeps flowing; just like life. The similarities between the song and her own life are striking and it’s why the judges are in mild shock before hitting their buttons

Thanks.

Послушайте Дюну,это фантастика!!!Земной человек,так петь не может

Diana's stare when she walks forward in the middle of this performance is beautifully haunting❣

Princess Diana amazing, real Qoeen on stage!!🎤🎶💎💥💔💯👍🇬🇷

*It's the song that really spiked her standing above all others in the competition back then.* Her vocals are natural...like Cher

Это бы её "бриллиантовый период" в творчестве. Разнообразно и интересно. Сейчас золотой, стало немного проще.

Honestly, I think it’s largely pointless trying to figure out how she sings. I’ve seen so many people who think they’ve figured it all out but they all formed their own different theories, so there’s no real way to know who among them is “correct”. One vocal coach will say she pulls her tongue back and another will point out her perfectly natural tongue position. Someone will label her a mezzo-soprano and another person calls her a contralto. Only Diana herself understands fully how she sings. Based on interviews, I can tell you for sure that it mostly comes down to anatomy. Is it possible to force yourself to sound like her? Probably, by moving around stuff in your throat, but it would never sound as natural or comfortable as it does for her. She really is just a unique singer

Im guessing you watched BASS guy, he is so handsome and eloquent

heilung and diana could be an excellent colab

❤️🤝🔥🎧👸

Quelle voix magnifique.quelle puissance.quelle presence.un tres grand moment👍👍👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Next one for your Diana reaction list: Revelation, which was the first music video that she wrote, arranged, performed, and produced all by herself. I have heard that it was a project for her studies at music school, but correct me if I am wrong. But anyway, I find it very impressive.

I recommend this new song by Diana Ankudinova! You will not regret! Рекомендую эту новую песню Дианы Анкудиновой! Не пожалеете! Саундтрек из фильма «Дюна» (Soundtrack from the movie «Dune») ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1CdScPHfLls.html

ПРОСТО СУПЕР !!!

👍👏✌️

I would recommend "Oh, it is not evening yet" from Diana, stunning performance as well. And there is a version from Pelageya which is also great, if not better.

Still my absolute favorite song and performance of her beside "Dernière Danse"

Amazing! But yes, we Slavic are like "tribaly" voice singing..❤

This song is about a girl in her wedding day. She is sad because she has no father or mother to bless her in such a day so she goes to sit by a little river to ask its blessings instead as water sources and water flows had magics and powers. 2:19 That grunt brings the voice of the spirits of nature and of her ancestors asking "why you are not smiling?" 3:22 Not yodel but something related to it. That is a doble glottal hammering vibrato that brings to our minds the greeting/farewell to the spirits inherited from Turkic/Tengrenist traditions in certain muslim tribes in the ancient Turan to pay homage to the ancestors and spirits of nature. In Spanish I know it as "hammering vibrato" or "glottal vibrato". In Iran I heard they call it "che-che". It is not yodeling but an ethnic technique relative to yodeling but needs more control on the notes you sing than in yodeling. It is similar to that used by Dimash in "sinful passion" though this version takes three basic notes instead of two and he does it in a higher speed. That way is easier to learn and practice that technique. Try it! Cmon, you can! * Dimash - Greshnaya strast (Sinful passion) by A'Studio ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-W9FlDMCo8LU.html. The lyrics in Rechenka goes: -You, my sweet little river, my little darling river, you flow….. oh! but don't even quiver. Oh, if -f -f -If you're my little creature, why are you sitting but you are not smiling? Oh, playmate of mine, my dear playmate, oh, I have nothing to rejoice about, oh, I have nothing to smile about. Oh! Already, of horses, our yard is full And of guests crammed full is the hall. I have neither of them; nor father nor mother, I have no one to bless me... You, my sweet little river, my little darling river, you flow….. oh! but don't even quiver....

Vocês são ótimos! Reajam a #GabrielHenrique! Gabriel Henrique lançará um novo clipe no dia 8 de dezembro. Aguardo suas reações.

"Rechenka" = the little river.......this is a Russian folk song of an orphaned girl (touching, as Diana spent time in a Russian orphanage) who goes to the river (the boundary between the living and the dead) to ask her deceased Mother's blessing for her upcoming marriage.

ダイアナは「自然なポリフォニック・ドラマティック・コントラルト」です。つまり、彼女は重音で最も深い音域のボーカルを歌うことができ、それがボーカルにコントラストを加え、同時に彼女の声のポリフォニックな質感により、複数の人が歌っているように見えます。このようなスタイルで自然に歌うことができる女性ボーカリストは非常に稀な才能です。ダイアナはこの年齢でボーカリストとして優れたコントロールを持っており、それが彼女をさらに素晴らしいものにしています。 🤯🤯🤯🤩🤩🤩💚💚💚

Diana vocal berserk

how is queen Taylor just getting more and more beautiful

DUNE. You have to react her version of sound track to the movie Dune! It is astonishing!!

🙂🙃😙 👍✋👋

Adoro a reações de vcs. Gostaria que vcs reagisse ao Gabriel Henrique que lançará um clipe no dia 08 de dezembro as 18h horário de Brasília. Obrigada!
