SHE DOES IT AGAIN!?! | ANGELINA NOBEL PEACE PRIZE PERFORMANCE - REACTION 

The speech she wrote was actually read by her children the day before at the actual award ceremony, not at this tribute concert.

Well said thanks.....

Well said

Thanks for the explanation. I heard that also. I also heard that all the performers were Iranian. She is magnificent!

@@jimbinder7472 This video is an excerpt from what is now the equivalent of the official Nobel Prize concert (the last one in a concert hall took place in 2017). Since redesigning the concert after the COVID-related break (it is now a televised broadcast from a large studio belonging to NRK, Norway's national television network), the Nobel Committee has been trying to find artists with ties both to Norway (as the host country) and to the country of the laureate (this year Iran). But I also think it's no coincidence that the entire cast is female. These are the selected artists for 2023: #1 is Amanda Delara Nikman (born 1997 in Sweden), a Norwegian pop / R&B artist. Her parents emigrated from Iran to Sweden and moved to Lillehammer, Norway when Delara was 1yo. Delara released her debut single at the age of 19. In November 2018, she released the EP “Running Deep” and was nominated for the prestigious Spellemannprisen 2018 (Norwegian equivalent of the Grammys) in the category pop artist of the year for the EP and the single "Soldiers". Delara's lyrics often deal with political and social topics. Her debut single “Paper Paper” was about class differences, “New Generation” was about her mother's war experiences. The song “We don't run from anyone” was inspired by Saudi women who were driving before they were allowed to. #2 is Angelina Jordan Astar (born 2006 in Oslo, Norway), a Norwegian multi genre singer with deep roots in Jazz, Soul and R&B. She broke through in 2014 on the TV show “Norske talenter” where she sang cover versions of various classic jazz songs at the age of 8. Since then she has worked to raise money on behalf of environmental causes and children's charities around the world. Angelina Jordan has released multiple digital singles, three EPs (most recent: “Old Enough” in 2023), and one album called “It's Magic”. Angelina Jordan was born in Oslo, Norway, and has lived for extended periods both there and in Los Angeles. She also lived for a time in the Middle East. Her Norwegian mother, Sara Astar, is the daughter of Iranian painter and poet Mery Zamani who left Iran to study in Japan and later on moved to Norway. In 2014 Angelina Jordan had the honor to perform in front of the laureates at the Save the children’s Nobel Peace Prize Party. #3 is Mahsa Vahdat (born 1973 in Tehran, Iran), a singer and musician with a bachelor's degree from the Art University in Tehran. She has toured and performed in the West since 1995. Mahsa Vahdat's music style is contemporary expression inspired by old traditional and folk and regional music of Persia/Iran. In her music she also developed dialogue between other cultures in a high artistic quality and she got a huge response internationally. As women are not allowed to sing in public as a solo singer after 1979 Islamic Revolution, most of Mahsa Vahdat's albums were recorded outside Iran where she enjoys great fame with the Iranian diaspora and in world music circles. To get her work published, she works among others with Kirkelig Kulturverksted, a Norwegian record label. Mahsa also had the honor of performing at the official 2023 Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony the day before. #4 is chosen to represent Norway as host country to the Nobel peace prize through a typical but contemporary Norwegian piece. This year it is performed by Tine Thing Helseth, a Norwegian classical trumpeter, born 1987 in Oslo. She started playing the trumpet at the age of seven, and is considered today as one of the leading trumpet players of her generation. Tine won second prize at the Eurovision Young Musicians Competition and just a year later, at the age of 20, her debut album earned her the 2007 Spellemannprisen as Newcomer of the Year. In 2007 Tine had the honor to perform at the official Nobel Peace Prize Concert. As #5 the renowned Norwegian radio symphony orchestra KORK played “Knell”, an orchestral piece by Niloufar Nourbakhsh. Niloufar is a composer known for her contemporary classical compositions for piano, orchestra, chamber groups, voice, electronics, and mixed media. Born in Iran, she began her musical studies at the piano at the Sarang Institute of Music in Karaj, Iran. She won the 2nd prize of Iran's national piano biennale competition at the age of fifteen. She then left Iran for studying piano and composing abroad, first at the University of Oxford, England. She then moved to the US to get her bachelor's degree, receiving a B.A. from Goucher College, Maryland in 2014 and is now a doctoral student in composing at New York’s State University at Stony Brook. Niloufar is co-founder of the Iranian Female Composers Association.

Some have sung there as many as three times, but l believe Angie is the only one twice under the age of 18. I'm sure this will not be the last. The Prince of Norway loves her.

I was surprised that you remember that Al Hibbler was the first to make this song popular in the 50's. BTW He was blind.

@@raymoles Wow, just listened to Al. I thought Todd Duncan was the first to sing this...

Hi Britt. Just for the record. She already sang at the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014. She sang Armstrong's What a Wonderful world. To my knoledge she's the only one who did it twice. 👍

About the amaizing KORK orchestra (Norwegian TV orchestra). A part of this assemble who played Angelina’s Back to Black when she was 10 year, so yes, they know her very well.

OH!! Can you please give me the names of the songs she did with this specific orchestra??? The .only large one I remember is her recital when she sang SUMMERTIME. And i liked your comment, PEACE!!

@@gottabeemee What exactly are you trying to prove! Do your own research, I can’t waste my time!

I beg to differ with you. It's a matter of opinion, rather than fact.

anita Sinead O'Connor, Wyclef Jean, Kylie Minogue have performed twice at the NPP concert.

@@103mrg thank you for your correction. Grateful to people who have this level of in depth knowledge. I repeated what someone said but was concious I had not cross checked it that's why I said I believe. Not I know. Thank you again.

Amen to that statement. That was a legendary performance.

@@leebrn8588 yes, barefoot princess has the connotation of her as being a little girl. She is way beyond that now!

As long as Angelina is partly of Iranian ancestry, her compassion to Narges Mohammadi's cause must be very strong.

Fabulous Reaction Britt hope you hdaa lovely Christmas and NewYear ,Angelina performed this song SoBeautifuly and Breathtaking such Class.Frances from Scotlandxx

I saw the Elvis "Lip Curl" on her upper lip about half way thru during that close up. Wow!

Angelina is not the only artist who has been invited more than once to perform at a Nobel Peace prize concert. Youssou N’Dour performed in 1997 and 2001. Solvguttene performed in 1996,1997,1998. Snead O’Connor performed in 1994,1997. There are several others who performed more than once. As dedicated Angelina’s fans, it is important that we verify our comments with reliable sources before posting them. Thank you

Angelina May be the Youngest singer to be asked to perform at the Nobel concert Twice, but she was not the only one ,as davidTouma wrote!

@@davidtouma4878 Duly noted.

@@davidtouma4878 Wyclef Jean, Kylie Minogue.

I hope Angelina and her family will be reading these praises which she has earned that night.

@@leebrn8588 I have it on good authority that the family and Ms. Jordan are well aware of the communities efforts to expand Ms. Jordan's name recognition and artistry, to the wider world audience. Those efforts continue, daily Rb

The peace prize is awarded in Oslo. The other Nobel prizes in Stockholm, Sweden

Only the peace price is awarded in Norway. The others in Sweeden by the King of Sweeden

Welcome 🤗

Take Care...@@brittreacts

No, thank you! Happy new year 😊

Add to that another 300 million viewers from the soccer awards song that she sang.

This is simply not true. I'm thrilled when Angelina is given opportunities to show her abilities and i am one of her biggest fans. But we must be careful throwing around numbers. There is nothing to substantiate 300 million watched this tribute. This claim was also made for the FIFA awards but later was determined to be closer to 10 million total viewers, including streaming, which is still fantastic. We all want her to achieve the success she deserves but we should stick to facts. For context, the 2023 Superbowl had 115 million viewers. That would make this performance equal to 3 Superbowls.

@@ClifftheBigRedDoggy good points. Lets not forget that the superbowl is our mega event but soccer is pretty much the mega event for the other five continents and billions of fans. So the scale is reasonable although exaggerated.

@@osovagabundo1 There are many fans of Angelina working in media. They repeatedly confirm these rediculous exaggerations are simply not true. This doesn't help Angelina. The Apollo 11 Moon landing was 150 million. Can anyone believe this one hour TV tribute drew 350 million? We'd be thrilled with 3 million.

@@ClifftheBigRedDoggy The estimates were for households reached (350 million) not the number of viewers. But in terms of worldwide audiences, the Superbowl's peak was 124 million, whereas 1.5 billion people are estimated to have watched the World Cup final.

Happy holidays!😊

eric "Norway's most famous export"?? I hardly think so, considering he was Swedish. Try Magnus Carlsen or Edvard Munch or Henrik Ibsen.
