Here are three reasons why Diana (the Queen of Goosebumps) doesn't sound human. First, she is a contralto, which is the absolute rarest type of female voice. It allows her to sing very dramatic/powerful, very (I mean VERY) deep, very dark, very rich. Second, she has a spectacular larynx. She's been called the vocal Eighth Wonder of the World. Third, she is polyphonic, which means she can produce multiple harmonics within her voice at the same time. This is what allows her to sound like two people at once. (more below) When you add all that up you basically get a person who creates her own auto-tune. She doesn't need electronic auto-tune. She IS her own auto-tune. And the effect when you hear her is totally mind-blowing. It's like she's singing right through you, like a sword straight into your soul. Literally NOBODY else on the planet has a voice like hers. She's not one in a million, she's one in seven billion.
First episode of 9 episodes of "ШоуМАСКгоон" or in English ... "The Show Mask Go On" .. evidently by the same 'crew' of Russia's Masked Singer so we get "The Show Mask Go On" . .more or less. The 9 contestants were:- Diana Ankudinova, Vyacheslav Makarov, Julia Parshuta, Mark Tishman, Alisa Mon, Kirill Turichenko, Karina Koks, Stas Kostyushkin & Anatoliy Tsoy.

The arrangement of this is actually by Tommee Profitt. It's "Can't help falling in Love, Dark version" You can check it out on their RU-vid channel. They also do a "light version" which is really good as well. Of course Diana's incredible voice took it to a whole new level!
Rick, man, it's not just the great Elvis smiling happily where he is now! Louis Armstrong too! Listen to "What a Wonderful World" by Diana and Brendan Stone and we are waiting for your comments!
She changed music for me. She's incredible. She also had a very difficult childhood. She was severely abused and abandoned at a Russian bus stop in the winter at the age of three. She was found with a broken collarbone and taken to an orphanage. She was later adopted by a caring family, but the pain and the haunted voice that comes through today is incomparable. I could go on forever about what her voice is capable of, but it’s best to dive into to her other songs and see for yourself. The only thing better than her voice is her character. She’s the best.
I do appreciate your comment Mr. Zac I don’t know whether anybody else feels the impact of her voice in this song as I felt 3 months back and it’s change my life… m a guy from Pakistan a married man and I’ve got 2 boys. Couple of years back I’ve got separated from my wife because she don’t want to live with me anymore, That’s my love marriage after 10 years of love affair I got married with her, my children are with her , I’ve just ruined tried twice suicide but I couldn’t just to sake of my boys, m following prayers keep praying in what curse that m in … and suddenly she(Diana) came up .. I’m very found of music though.. I’ve listen her last dance then I heard this song which changed me a lot … I don’t know how and why but… it happened!!!! Her voice feels from inside of my stomach travelling to my heart then head and I possessed.
@@ziaakbar7713 I truly believe there is something divine in her voice. If someone could hear an actual angel singing, this is what I imagine it sounds like. Either way, hang in there friend. It’s important to remember that people care for you and need you around even on some days when it may not feel like it. Better days will come. 🙏🏻
Я смотрела первые 10 секунд видео на этого обаятельного брутального мужчину и думала: сейчас Дианочка тебя размажет в эмоциональном плане😂 Это просто не избежно
Чувак, ты прав на все 100! Чехов, Достоевский, Толстой - это всё достояние Мира, их нельзя запретить никакими американскими и западными санкциями! Музыка, кино, литература должны объединять простых людей во всём мире!
Diana Ankudinova is the most insanely talented vocalist I have ever heard (Dimash actually recommended her some time ago). She's a polyphonic contralto. Power, range, emotion, stage presence, timing, pitch, she just has the lot. And then that unique timbre that just makes her unique. She's 18 here (19 now) and her songs have been popular online since she was about 14. It really is strange that some people have still not heard about her. You are in for an amazing journey!
я не знаю как димаш относится к диане , по одним отзывам не хочет с ней общаться , в вашем ответе отозвался хорошо , конечно они абсолютно разные исполнители , у димаша опыта по возрасту гораздо больше , но талантливы оба . Но без талантливого композитора им вместе не спеть , нужна гармония сильных сторон каждого , а не одного , в этом и проблема , может потому и не хотят общаться
@@вячеславВагин-к4т да им просто некогда общаться да и незачем - каждый на своем пути, да, Вы правы, чтобы они спели в дуэте им нужен сильный и мощный проект сделанный легендарными профессионалами - композиторами и поэтами. В любом случае даже если они и общаются - мы об этом не узнаем, ибо это личное, а со стороны публичности это будет конфликт интересов.
@@вячеславВагин-к4т Они не "не хотят общаться". Для начала у них ещё и шанса встретиться не было. Но я думаю оба прекрасно знают что много людей хотят их дуэт. Что думает на этот счёт Димаш, я не слышала, а Диана в одном видео сказала, что это невозможно, потому что у них совершенно разные голоса и разные направления в музыке. Но я думаю тут большее значение имеет то, что , чтобы написать такую песню и музыку для такого дуэта, нужен уникальный композитор, сам с необычайным талантом.
Surprise!! Great reaction, thanks. Been loving this girl's work for a few years and she just keeps blowing the lid off it. That's a contralto voice, the best I've heard in my 70 years. Diana's 19yo now. This clip she was 18. But go back to 17, 16, 15, 14, 13 and she still knocks you off your feet.
I call this 'a musical art piece' due to the minor key and emphasis on only a few significant lines. A masterpiece! She's 18 in this performance. She's a rare dramatic contralto with polyphonic capability. She's been training since about age 5 and developed her higher range.
Diana’s voice gives me goosebumps constantly in so many of her songs. she’s mesmerizing. Her voice has no equal, seriously! Her range is that of a contralto -that is the rarest female voice. When you listen to her other songs you hear her playing with her voice, breath and tones. She has capabilities of sounding like 4-5 people at once…”polyphonic”… have fun in your discovery! I enjoyed your response and as an American I agree we need some of this quality here
Sometimes special people are given to the world. Diana and Dimash are definitely one of them. To me, Diana is the earth and Dimash is the sky. Both absolutely unique and magnificent and incredibly beautifying the world. Glad you found both.
📌Welcome! Who is Diana Ankudinova? (Pronounced: Dee-ah-nah Ahn-kuh-dee-no-vah) Diana, Singer and Songwriter in Russia was born in May, 31. 2003 in the Far East of Russia. (www says she is between 1.66 -1.70m/ 5.5 - 5.7 ft tall.) She didn't have a happy start in life. The woman who gave birth to her had many pregnancies, only Diana survived... and she did not love her child, cruelly abused it and tried to drown it. The 3 year old child was found at a bus stop with a broken collarbone and taken to an orphanage. There she finally found love ... from Irina Ponik, a massagetherapist. Taking a young child into the family was not easy for Irina. Her son was already 20 years old, daughter Nastya 17 years... Now start all over again? Yes!!! Diana came to a poor but loving family when she was 5 years old. Diana spoke badly, cried a lot and was still very scared but she all sing songs from cartoons. The doctor recommended singing lessons and so, the singing teacher Elena Kazantseva discovered Diana's talent. And all started... During 2008 to 2012 Diana sang around 40 songs, including at competitions. Her mother, Irina Ponik, turned her whole life inside out and started all over with a new motherhood and many new professions - seamstress, manager, vblogger… admirable. Everything that has to do with Diana's singing training, performances, competitions, looking for sponsors is organized and coordinated by her mother Irina Ponik. She took extra sewing courses too. Since then, she's been sewing all of Diana's stage costumes, because all of these things consume the family budget. She accompanies her daughter on trips and captures her life in photos and videos with the persistence of a visionary. It is admirable how she promotes her daughter's career, teaching her how to fly but makes sure that she is down to earth Remains. Diana impressed with her talent in over 50 national and international competitions. Her confidence grew, her voice continued to develop ... until one day she was asked to compete in more distant competitions so that other children could have a chance to win. In 2012, Irina's family moved to their hometown of Toglyatti, much closer to Moscow. Diana lost her fear that the woman who gave birth to her would kidnap her. In 2017 Diana went to Moscow, at the Russian 'The Voice Kids'. She sang 'Yodel-Time' - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vKdvaWsd91Q.html but none of the judges turned around but the whole audience gave 'standing ovation'. What happened? Next day, a huge scandal broke out in social medias. People demanded for Diana's participation in the competition. A door had closed but a new door opened... Diana entered another competition in 2018 and 2019 and won twice. This project is unique in the world, an international TV- competition: 'You are Super', especially for adopted and orphaned children. The winner of the season will be determined by a 6-day public vote and the final took place in the Kremlin Palace and her videos were uploaded to RU-vid and soon she had millions of fans. The project producers help the finalists to start their studies and promote their creativity. Diana won a scholarship. Igor Krutoy gave her a small apartment (37m²/ 398.26 ft²) in Moscow. There she lives in the small apartment with her mother and grandmother and was able to start her vocal training with the best teachers such as Professor Olga Donskoy. (She died of Covid-19 in October 2020). Now she is taught by the great Alexandra Pismennaya, who was a student of Prof. Donskoy. Maestro Krutoy also introduced Diana to the excellent singer, songwriter and producer Brandon Stone. With Maria Tarasenko (songwriter), the trio created the 9 songs of Diana's first CD, released Dec. 2021 with great success. The Golden Record was released in June 2022. Dimash Qudaibergen is the universe, but Diana is the earth, our home... And when you hear her voice, you feel like she has wrapped you in a warm velvet blanket and served you a mug of hot, dark chocolate. Every song is a unique experience, it captivates you, you feel bound by magic. Diana doesn't just sing, she creates worlds... and goosebumps. Diana has something primal, mystical, but also sensitive and sensual in her voice and she lives her songs. She also has a perfect pitch and her sense of rhythm was exceptional even as a little girl. Diana is a dramatic contralto, the rarest and lowest female voice type (her range C3-D7) and her voice sometimes has natural polyphonic undertone = subharmonic. Undertone singing is a singing technique that belongs to the main category of overtone singing in which the vibration mode of the vocal cords is modulated to produce sounds that are below the singing tone. In contrast to overtone singing, these tones are not overtones (i.e. integral multiples of the fundamental, but integral divisors of the fundamental, so-called subharmonics.) Not everyone can hear that. The vocal coach Andreas Grussl explains and shows in his video very clearly how Diana creates these sounds: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zXOPXmHL2bM.html * In Europe this technique is found in the Sardinian cantu a tenore: Canto a tenore ....: (Wiki helped) Sardinian pastoral songs - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cWVCMvbGcPA.html But she is not only a great singer and storyteller. She lives her songs and touches our hearts and souls. But also she looks beautiful and she is a humble, intelligent and hardworking young woman. She also gives charity concerts. She loves her family and her fans. They are 'Friends' to her and they are very supportive of her. Diana is grateful that they helped improve her home studio and also supported her future plans (first album). Her Russian Friends have chosen Diana as "National Treasure". I think, she is our “Earth Treasure”. The break of voice made Diana’s voice even darker and deeper. She has mastered this time very professionally and has worked hard to bring back the lost high notes and has expanded her vocal range, currently from C3-E6. Her genres are folk-rock, folk-pop, jazz, soul, blues, soldier songs and Diana-stile… tradition meets modernity. She loves to sing in French, but also sings in English, German, Arabic and Spanish... but only phonetically. She plays the piano and ukulele. 2020 Diana graduated from high school with honors as an external student a year earlier as “normal”, applied to music colleges and was rejected (examiners suspected she had a voice defect). But she is totally normal and healthy ... and now she is a student at the university, at the legendary Russian State Institute for Theater and Variety Arts (Juilliard similar to GITIS). She composes and creates her own songs. In October 2021 Diana was invited to her first adult contest on Russian television 'The ShowMaskGoOn'. She won!!! Thank you to all friends who helped me. (www helped too) ❤ Greetings from Germany
СКОРЕЕ всего до меня уже ответили , но не могу не ответить :) . Во-первых в момент исполнения ей было 18 , потом , водка в России не особо любимый напиток , чай популярнее (кроме самой воды )Ну и в остальном по-честному , такую минорную версию кавера придумали не создатели этого шоу , к стыду моему я забыл , но это кажется был итальянский композитор ,я слышал этот кавер в исполнении другой певицы , первая часть была схожа с исполнением Дианы , но вторую мощную часть Диана исполнила своим собственным голосом без электронной поддержки как в первоисточнике , где мощь была в инструментале , а не в голосовых связках , думаю первый минорный кавер в пределах интернета найти просто и спасибо его создателю, сильная вещь , и Диана с ее полифоническим голосом лишь улучшила кавер . Просто минорное исполнение идеально подходило под ее вокальные возможности , оригинал не пострадал , лишь заиграл в новых оттенках звучания. А вообще , Диана - универсальный исполнитель , хоть и говорят что ее сильная сторона - драматическое исполнение , но она легко поет и в других жанрах , есть джаз , рок , лирика , фольк , йодль ,причем сама она предпочитает более легкий жанр , так как сама сознается что драматические песни ей тяжело даются , так как она вживается в исполнение , не может петь по другому
Вот так и мы,поклонники из России,находимся в шоке от нашей Дианочки! Она уникальна! Не побоюсь этого слова,но Диану можно уже назвать Великой певицей! Здоровья ей,успехов! Вам огромное спасибо за искренние чувства!
Hello Ric, thank you for your fine reaction. You just heard a unique voice. You will not find anything comparable on this earth. Diana has a very rare voice. She is a contralto and she is also polyphonic, which means she can produce several tones at the same time. Diana's background: Diana was born on May 31, 2003 in the Far East of Russia. She was severely abused as a small child and abandoned on the street by her birth mother in winter when she was only 3 years old with a broken collarbone. She was then taken to an orphanage where, after more than one year, she was adopted by Irina Ponik, a massage therapist. At the age of four and a half, Diana still could not speak properly. She also stuttered. Experts recommended that she take singing lessons to improve her general speaking and vocal skills. This is a new TV show in Russia. There are 9 weeks with 9 shows and 9 well known artists. Diana is the youngest artist. They had to sing songs from 9 genres. The last TV show was on 20. November 2021. The 9 artists are also the judges for the other singer. And Diana (18 yo) won the overall competition of which Diana won 4 and took 2nd place once. She shocked the other singers with the first song. The Crow was her masterpiece in this competition, in my opinion. The judge who stands up is the great opera singer Yusif Eyvazov and the husband of Anna Netrebko, who is world famous. He's very impressed. Here are the 9 songs: - 1 - Can’t help falling in love - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w06R8iI0dg0.html - she won this day
She is classified as a "Dramatic Contralto with polyphonic overtones" That is the lowest voice type a Woman can classified in! Very very rare rich and mighty!
Yes - the Queen! 😂Unique Contralto voice. 18 here. Start at the beginning > see her stunning performance of 'Rechenka' when she was 14. { try to get the version with subtitles -but if not really doesn't matter } Here you will see the massive potential already in evidence for this unique artist. Truly a career to watch. 👍
Я ТОЖЕ ЧАСТИЧНО ПОНИМАЮ, НО ОН СКАЗАЛ: " ПРОСТИ ЭЛВИС, НО ОНА ВЕЛИЧАЙШАЯ !..." )) И ЕЩЕ В ПРОЦЕССЕ СЛУШАНИЯ ОН СКАЗАЛ : " ОНА - НАСТОЯЩАЯЯ?!? " НУ И ДА, СРАВНИВАЛ С ДИМАШЕМ.
Правильно говорят о Диане "сама Природа поёт", "сам Бог поёт" я читал такое под многими реакциями из различных уголков Мира. Вот в таких раскрытиях, как в данном случае однозначно.
Добро пожаловать в мир Дианы! Диана - уникальная и неповторимая певица! Невероятное выступление Дианы! Просто потрясающее! Диане - браво! А за реакцию - лайк! Welcome to the world of Diana! Diana is a unique and inimitable singer! Incredible performance by Diana! Simply amazing! Diana - bravo! And for the reaction - like!
1000% agree with your vodka comment most of the western music industry need to pay more attention to these real artists (just my opinion no offence intended to real artists that are out there)
Listen to Rechenka , you will be stunned by the sheer power and intensity, once you come across Diana you are never the same, her Russian songs are stunning, yes the world needs to acknowledge her, dig deep my friend and be entranced by magnificence
dramatic Contralto with an incredible outworldly tone and natural over tones... - Music You've Never Heard :P - subbed your channel for more Diana, your reaction was priceless :) Next you might check her newly released song "Revelation", it's the first song completely credited to her, music & lyrics, and it's an amazing experience, true poece of art with very personal lyrics (CC, the song is in Russian...). Diana sings in Russian, English, French, but also has a few songs in German, Spanish and even Arab...After listening to where she stands now with her first original you might check out some of her amazing back catalogue, she didn't start singing (and recording) just yesterday... To see her at a very young age you could watch her sing "Oh Darling" (Beatles)... some of her "classics" during adolescence are "Rechenka" (River), or "Dernière Danse" (Last Dance)
За Диану сразу лайк! Диана королева мурашек. Смотрите и слушайте любые песни в исполнении Дианы, Вы не ошибётесь и Вам понравится. Спасибо за выбор видео. Спасибо за эмоциональную реакцию. Спасибо за добрые слова в адрес Дианы. Мне очень понравилось. Лайк. С уважением из России.
You will have to react to “Wicked Game” cover at age 15. It’s what won my heart over a year ago and have not gone a day without listening to her music. Thanks🙏🏼
Diana's voice is dramatic contralto, currently (just?) 4 octaves range. Most of western controlled mass-media TV, radio and press "filters" music & text content so that western community couldn't know about her amazing talent (thanks to YT btw). Try Human, Wicked game, Rechenka and Crow(my favorite).
I don't know about that, I heard good vibes on the radio a few days ago, so some people do know her and try to give her airtime. I think it's more the international situation and the people that engineer war trying to seperate peoples to do it. It's not just her, we don't hear much of Dimash either. We don't fight if we listen to the same songs... Even in Russia it's complicated for her, she seems to want to maintain artistic freedom so it will take a while for her to filter out the wrong people. It's easier to be famous if the middleman gets most of the profit. As long as she has the internet she'll make it through, the people of the world will have her back on this.
She was 18 here, you should check her out doing Rechenka at 14. This was a contest, and all of the judges are famous singers. She is a polyphonic dramatic contralto, the lowest and darkest female voice. She only showed part of it here, but she has tremendous range and control. The judge standing on the top row with the beard and tears in his eyes is Yusif Eyvazov who is married to Anna Netrebko, both well-known and respected opera singers. What does it say about her performance if she could move him to tears?
Вы Офигенный!!! И да, давайте так... Это Космос!!! Наша Красавица, бесподобна!!! Возможности её голоса безграничны!!! Вам и всем кого любите, Мира и Счастья!!!
You are right in everything you said, today's Musician wannabes better start taking notes. She is 19 now and she was 18 when she performed "can't help falling in love". Since you asked let me clear the voice ranges for you the Highest range for a man is Tenor and the lowest is Bass. For females the highest is Soprano and the lowest Contralto. Diana is a natural Contralto which is the rarest type of voice of humans in general she has a very deep voice, she goes in to the male tenor range, that classifies her further as a dramatic contralto. Growing up she gradually begun to lose her high notes but through hard and constant work she extended her voice in to the Soprano range. Everything she sings becomes a masterpiece, since you know her channel then you should hear a lot more from her you will be stunned every single time because the things she can do with her voice others do not even dare to attempt and i am not even talking about range. I will link you some of her performances that kick started her initial fame from when she was 14/15 years old and she won twice back to back a singing contest made for unfortunate children. Masterful performances all of them and i am not saying that lightly. (I am giving you these because you are unfortunately right about how the politics right now harm her global evolution, these performances had over 100 million views each on youtube but you can not find the originals anymore. ) Derniere Danse Full version :ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kjMh5suWSdU.html Derniere Danse First audition: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qSBXNJmdif8.html This is a man's world: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FPK6cFwsg38.html Rechenka: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fEcvVINA304.html Tomorrow is a lie: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-U92A8H2rK2I.html Blizzard: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZBCevVmcez4.html Wicked game: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kt78je5hD0k.html Human: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-erQLW2Z2i8w.html
Yes, Diana hits particularly hard on the memory of our first GREAT love. Shock and awe, tears and laughter)) Thank you so much for your brilliant reaction - do you happen to know how to put a video 1000 likes? 😁
Diana is a dramatic contralto, the lowest female singing voice. She was 18 in this video. You really need to see her performance of 'Rechenka (The River) when she was 14, and 'Human' and 'I don't want to fall in love' when she was 15.
Thanks Ric, from Australia. Yep, the King is dead, long live the Queen. This song is here transposed into a minor key, and reinterpreted tellingly of the more grievous or obsessive or tragic sides of love. Diana is a miracle, (pronounced Dee-ana as per the Greek goddess), as her story is miraculous. In respect to your comment about the troubles in the Ukraine, sanctions, demonisation, war, blame, etc, is of salutary moment, for this has likely prevented Diana from being a world wide phenomena already. Here's SHAMAN (Yaroslav Dronov), another Russian vocal artist, who has done this hit song 'I Am Russian' as a bit of a statement to the world. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0LKhA40V0Ew.html
Diana is phenomenal, her near tragic beginning created this awesome prodigy, her performance of. ( it’s a man’s world ) at 14 is one of the greatest by a young person ever, don’t believe me check it out, dimash and Diana are connected by Igor kratoy, Diana makes grown men cry, check out the vocal reaction it’s on you tube, welcome to the greatest singer on this planet she is powerful and intense beyond belief it’s beautiful
Spot on with your comment about the notes are changed. Elvis's version is in D Major scale ( light, happy, cheerful). This version is originally from ( Tomee Proffitt dark version) Diana's version is in F Minor Harmonic raised 7th. Gives a ominous, dark, suspenseful, eerie feelings. A give away at the very being is Diana standing on a mirrored reflection. Is that on purpose.......a mirror opposite of the original????? As others have stated 18yrs old for this performance last fall, now 19yrs old as of May 31st. Do yourself a favor and wiki Diana. Gives you a better appreciation of how and where Diana draws those emotions from within to deliver her performances. A true artistist in every form of the word. A vocalist, musian, writer, arranger, painter, draws and sews. Full fledged experience for you to come in the future, actually a little jealous of your journey. Good luck.
Ric D, welcome to the extraordinary voice of Diana Ankudinova! For those in your audience that don’t know, Diana Ankudinova was only 18 years old when this performance took place during the 2021 season of a Russian vocal competition called the "ShowMaskGoOn!". Diana’s cover of this Elvis Presley classic "Can't Help Falling In Love", shows Diana Ankudinova has what many vocal professionals believe is a true contralto sound, and for those that don’t know female voice types, a contralto is the lowest type of female voice, and a true contralto voice type is very, very rare. First, let me answer a very common question asked about Diana's vocal range which helps define a female singer's voice type. At 14 in 2017, her vocal range was measured from a low of D3 to a high of A5. As of September 2021, 4 years later at age 18, her lower functional range was measured from a C3 to her upper range measured at B♭5. But, it's not just how low she can go, it's the exceptional quality of her tone in her lower range. It's all about the roundness, the fullness, and the depth of her sound, along with her ability to create and access an enormous amount of resonance that further defines Diana as a "dramatic contralto", which is the rarest of the rare contralto voice types. How does Diana Ankudinova do it? How can such a young female singer reach such a low, rich, deep, and profound sound? Without a professional actually scoping her vocal tract, the general conciseness of many vocal professionals attributes Diana’s sound to her winning the genetic lottery, and just being born with unique vocal anatomy. Diana’s vocal folds appear to be longer and thicker than most female singers. Also, her larynx appears to be larger than most female singers along with a vocal track that similarly appears to be longer than most other female singers. It’s this unique vocal anatomy that gives Diana Ankudinova the ability to produce these low, deep, rich, and full sounds, but without actually scoping Diana’s vocal track there is no way to be 100% sure. To really appreciate the vocal progression of Diana's contralto sound, listen to "Rechenka", a Russian folk song sung in Russian for a vocal competition held for disadvantaged teens called "You Are Super!" during their 2018 Season when Diana was only 14 years old. Next listen to her cover of Chris Izaak's, "Wicked Game" the following year when she was only 15 years old during the 2019 Season of "You Are Super!". Now again listen to "Can't Help Falling In Love". Also, Diana Ankudinova won both the 2018 and 2019 seasons of “You Are Super”. One of the most amazing things is that Diana is also a true polyphonic singer which is an extraordinarily rare accomplishment for someone so young. A singer who has mastered the polyphonic vocal technique can create up to two, and sometimes three different tones at the same time which adds to the harmonic overtones and undertones that can make it sound like more than one voice singing. This polyphonic ability is why some people mistakenly believe Diana Ankudinova is using auto-tune, a voice synthesizer, pitch correction software, or some other artificial form of electronic voice manipulation to alter or adjust her sound. Others think another person is singing in the background, or she is lip-syncing over a previously recorded vocal track. There is no artificial manipulation of Diana's voice of any kind going on at all. The “ShowMaskGoOn” is a very competitive vocal competition and Diana Ankudinova is required to use only the equipment provided to her as all other competitors are required to do. There was no opportunity for her or any other competitor to use electronic vocal manipulating equipment. What you are hearing is all Diana Ankudinova. Female singers usually don't reach their full vocal maturity until somewhere around 24 to 28 years of age although some reach it a little sooner, and others, a little later. Diana Ankudinova’s vocals are already developing well ahead of schedule in reaching her vocal maturity. I look forward to what Diana will sound like when she does reach full vocal maturity. When she does she will have had many more years of voice training with her voice teacher in addition to more years honing her on-stage live performance skills. When that day comes, there will be no doubt that Diana Ankudinova will be a vocal force to be reckoned with and a wonder to behold performing on stage. Diana took part in the “ ShowMaskGoOn on” vocal competition in September of 2021 where she performed her cover of “Can’t Help Falling In Love”. The judges were a panel of nine professional singers that compete against each other and also award judging points to each other. When Diana is not competing she is a member of this judging panel. During Diana’s performance, the judge on the top row that stands up first is the famous Russian tenor, Yusif Eyvazov from Azerbaijan who is married to the world-famous soprano Anna Netrebko. The blond woman also standing that’s dressed in red and looks totally shocked at the end of Diana's performance, then puts both hands on top of her head with a look of total bewilderment and disbelief is Julia Parshuta, also a well-known contemporary Russian singer. Julia Parshuta knows at some point, she has to compete against Diana Ankudinova, a true, once-in-a-generation talent. And finally, Diana was awarded the most points, winning the "ShowMaskGoOn" competition.

Beyond her incomparable voice, Diana’s story is really one of perseverance and triumph. She had a really rough start to life. To see this amazing, beautiful, humble young woman up on stage, with her Earth shaking contralto… it’s just moving beyond compare.
