Great reaction as usual. As someone else pointed out, today is Dimash's 27th birthday. Great timing on your part. This song occupies a special place in the repertoire of Dimash. "Daididau" has long been considered a folk song. However, philologists, based on the study of the poetry of Magzhan Zhumabayev, came to the conclusion that the author of this song is Magzhan Zhumabayev (1893-1938) - a Kazakh Soviet writer, poet, publicist, teacher, one of the founders of the new Kazakh literature. Magzhan Zhumabayev was shot as an enemy of the people in March 1938. The poems, songs, and other works of Magzhan Zhumabayev, written before the first arrest and exile to Siberia for 10 years in 1929, have been preserved and they are well known. Almost nothing is known about the works written in Siberia He was pulled from his love, and then he was lied to and told that she no longer loved him. Then when released he found that she had always loved him. He then was imprisoned again and put to death. All of Kazakhstan knows this song and the true story. This is deeply personal and important to Dimash and his country.
Hi new subscriber in the house!,Thanks for your Great reaction coach more to 4th Impact please, have a good day. Many subscribers requested this video because it's a great video 4TH IMPACT sings ‘BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER’ (So Hyang Version). #SUBSCRIPTIONSQUAD
This instrument is called dombra. It's our ancient music instrument with 2 strings. Dimash started with a very old composition of Kurmangazy, he is our great ancient composer. But the song Daididau was composed by Dimash personally
"I AM A SINGER" is an annual Chinese music competition between famous and established professional singers where the audience phones in to determine the winner after each episode. The audience is the same throughout the entire show, 500 with musical backgrounds and they judge the show by points each week. The competition consisted of 14 rounds, lasts almost 4 months and competitors are eliminated throughout the season. Every performance is live and no lip-syncing or auto-tune is permitted. Pure unadulterated vocal ability only. Dimash had been invited as a wildcard and was the first foreigner and youngest person to ever compete in the show. He became a superstar in China overnight. His Chinese competitors called him their "little imported brother." The other already well-known contestants were in absolute awe of him and joked that they might as well go home. Dimash won the first two episodes! He also won the 6th, for his rendition of “Adagio”, a song made famous by Lara Fabian. First place went to the famous Chinese 51 y/o singer Sandy. Sandy's first SD disc came out before Dimash was born. Dimash took second place, however, lost by a very narrow margin. Here is the order of Dimash’ss performances for The Singer 2017. The contest lasts 14 weeks, but Dimash has only 13 performances because he had already made it into the semi-finals by week 11. 1. S.O.S. (French) 2. Opera 2 (Russian) 3. The Show Must Go On (English) 4. Autumn Strong (Mandarin) 5. Uptown Funk (English) 6. Adagio (English) 7. Daididau (Kazakh) 8. Daybreak (Mandarin) 9. All By Myself (English) 10. Unforgettable Day (Mandarin/Kazakh) 11. Bye week - He had already made it into the semis 12. Confessa/Diva Dance (Mandarin/Italian/Alien) (Semi-finals) 13. Michael Jackson Tribute Medley (English) (Finals) 14. Give Me Love (Makhabbat ber maghan) (Kazakh) The last performance was part of the 2017 Biennial Concert and not part of the competition. It was broadcast live and is an original song written for Dimash.
Thanks for info. He is truly amazing.I've never cried for a male vocalist except him. After Whitney Houston, he is the one that makes me moved for every single note. Skillful vocalists are everywhere but skillful and soulful, only Dimash. I am so grateful to know him.
The 2 stringed instrument is called 'Dombra'. It is in almost every household in Kazakhstan. It is 'the soul of Kazakhstan'. This song is known throughout Kazakhstan and is very important to Dimash. Thank you
he wanted to bring his traditional music and culture to the Chinese audience. This song is so sad and he expresses it so well. Love the musicians. Daididau is what the man nicknamed his wife.
Danielle, Did you realize that May 24th is his Birthday? He is now 27. And after things settle he plans to come to America for an extended period to help get better established here and in the western world. The 2 string instrument is called a Dombra. Too bad you didn't react to the video of this song from his Bastau concert. There were more musicians also playing the Dombra there. I Am A Singer 2017 in China was 1 episode per week for 14 weeks for Professional acts and Dimash to compete & that first year with an invitation to Dimash didn't allow a foreigner to win because of the rules so he got the best he could of 2nd place. The next year they changed the rules so Jessie J competed and won.👱♀️👗👠👠💓
That silence is spectacular, just as much a part of his performance as the notes he sings. It is one of the things I really appreciate in Dimash's presentations--he doesn't rush his songs. He takes his time starting each phrase, even on slow pieces, and he is a master at letting the audience wait in suspense when the music calls for it.
Loved your reaction! honestly 4th impact brought me here I'll subscribe! This is one of 4th Impact's best performance their 1st audition on X Factor UK(2015) singing "Bang bang(Jessie J hit)" It's 177 Million Views & No.1 most Viewed on X Factor History. #SUBSCRIPTIONSQUAD
Yes, this is from Singer 2017, a Chinese competition for professional singers. The show ran 14 weeks, competitors generally singing a song per week. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singer_(season_5) All of Dimash's performances from the show are worth your time (with the exception, it is sometimes noted, of his cover of Bruno Mars' "Uptown Funk"; he sings it as well as one might want but it's rather lackluster musically). S-2017's "Daididau" is a splendid performance by Dimash. He is in his element, singing a traditional song while in the garb of his country. Spectacular song with haunting lyrics and melody.
Thank you for another awesome reaction, Danielle! I will leave it up to others to tell you the background of this story and subsequent song, as well as answering other questions you might have had. But!! I feel it is important for you to know he was SOOOO happy and proud to share a native folk song from Kazakhstan that night--he has stated more than once that it has been one of his dreams since childhood, to share his beloved country with the world. To say you are Kazakh is not mere patriotism--it defines you to your core. Proud warriors from times past, their culture carried forward inside the people's hearts, into today. To love his interpretation of this well known and much loved song goes without saying......but I also must comment about the exquisite beauty of all the costumes. Regal. Elegant. Stunning.
Danielle, You need to watch the version of Adai Dadidau where there is at least a hundred musicians playing the same instrument as in you video. Its quite emotional. Keep up the good work. Bastau 2017
The musicians, accompanied by some of Dimash's university professors, traveled all the way from kazakhstan to China for this particular performance. When the Kazakh team arrived at the airport in China, the Chinese DEARS welcomed them as if they were close friends of Dimash. It was at that moment that the whole team realized the intense love the Chinese have for Dimash. He is an artist that Chinese Dears will never forget as shown by a nurse in Wuhan who made everybody aware that she is a DEAR by writing it at the back of her personal protective equipment while on duty at the hospital fighting covid-19.
Danielle, Search for "The Singer 2017" on YT and watch the entire season. You'll love it - not only because of Dimash, but because of all the other great singers.
Next react to by Lara Fabian's "Mademoiselle Hyde" and in the same video "Mademoiselle Hyde" by Dimash both with Igor Kutoy as pianist composer in performance. The song is WOW, ( compare maybe) & contrast both Lara Fabian & Dimash in same video same song. That would be great.
If you just see the audience's expression you know you are in front of a great artist... This emotion he can transmite is one of his greatest virtues... 👑
#subscriptionsquad Oh, Dear Daniellle, when I watch your reactions I can't NOT smile 🥰😁 I am very tired after work, I am very sleepy, but you and your smile give me so much energy that I feel great joy in my heart😍 Thank you for your wonderful reaction and your comments on Dimash's beloved song on His birthday. May God bless him and keep him, let Lord give him a long life in health, happiness and joy💖💖💖 Hugs and greetings from Poland🇵🇱
He is playing a Dombra - a 2-string traditional Kazakh lute. This whole performance was to show his culture to the world. He is wearing a traditional shapan, all the musicians - his fellow students - wear traditional clothes playing traditional Kazakh instruments. Dimash is adorably proud of his heritage showing it wherever he can. The Singer is a very unusual show form China for professional, famous singers an on invitation only. Just to be invited is considered a honor. Dimash was invited as a completely unknown singer in China after one of the producers heard him as a wild card. He was at 22 years old the youngest ever and hoped to last at least a couple of episodes. His first performance made him a superstar in China literally overnight.
Dr. Qudaibergen (composition major recently awarded his Doctorate) he remained a fulltime student throughout his career and all his performances and projects were scheduled around his studies until now.
He does have his Master's Degree in composition, but has not yet received his Doctorate. His Doctorate is in musicology, but as of December 2020 he had not yet decided what field of research he will be studying for his thesis/dissertation.
The singer show is what made Dimash famous in the China and later the world. The show brought the most popular singers in China to compete and Dimash came as a wildcard that no one knew. You should react to Dimash singing Mademoiselle Hyde.
Даниэль, хотелось бы увидеть твою реакцию на песню Димаша - твоя любовь, песня исполняется на английском. А вот ссылка на неё ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a0yO7Sy9IcY.html
hi coach! i already know who youre gonna react to even before you upload it. coz im 15hours ahead of you, im literally from the future 😂❤🙏 #subscriptionsquad #MEGAMAY
Pleaseee watch Daybreak bastau, is the most emotional song of him!!! You're great !!!( forgive the daring but you are very cute and expressive, I love to see your reactions!!!) greetings from Argentina
Love this song, love this reaction. 😄 Also, It's Dimash's 27th birthday. 💖 This was in a Chinese show called "The Singer". (He spoke no Chinese at this time) He competed against already known artists, he was known as a wild card as no one had heard him before. After the first episode aired he had to have security follow him everywhere.
Hi Danielle! Hope you can please please please react to Dimash’s Across Endless Dimensions LIVE performance this 2021! I’m sure you’d love it!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! :D #subscriptionsquad all the waaaaaay! Love your reaction vids!! ❤️❤️❤️
HI Danielle, HI Lara, I am one of your subs and found you with your Dimash reaction video. Many of the voice teacher reactors also do a group called Pentatinox. They have a huge following on RU-vid and if you do a few videos of theirs, it adds thousands to your channel. What is odd is they are an A Capella group. They have been on RU-vid for several years with many postings . I read that they have collectively 5 Billion views of their songs. They do a version of Hallelujah that has 612 million views ? That seems like a lot ? If you have never heard of them, knowing your background, it would not be a surprise to you to understand why they are so popular just by hearing one of their songs. Creatively, they are simply off the charts and it would be easy for you to recognize this. Like Dimash, it shocks you. I realize that ever other commentator below will leave you a suggestion link. Most are a waste of your time. This one will not be. They just released a "90's Dance Medley" a week ago that already has 5 million views ? I will leave a link. It is hard to imagine doing a 90's Dance medley A Capella without using a drum machine or any of the keyboards that dominate that sound, but you will not be disappointed. I am not kidding. Drop test it. It is simply insane. Thanks . Hope you like it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-57YEAEKKcOk.html
I am wondering what else is needed for Dimash to get a Grammy award? He is the most skilled and qualified vocalist ever and he doesn't have any yet ... not even an invitation to sing during the ceremony, he really deserves to be there 🎤❤️🔝💯‼️🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏
👉 The Dombra is a folk musical instrument widely used in Central Asia. It is made of wood and has a pear-shaped body with a long neck (only in Kazakhstan with frets) to which two gut strings are attached. Today the dombra is a national symbol of the Kazakhs. One of the greatest dombra players was the Kazakh folk musician and composer Kurmangazy Sagyrbayuly, who had a great influence on the development of Kazakh music culture, his musical composition 'Adai' is popular in Kazakhstan and abroad. Today the dombra is a national symbol of the Kazakhs and Dimash said every Kasacian child learns this instrument. (www)🌼🇩🇪
As others undoubtedly shared, this song shares a cry of pain from a Kazakh poet, imprisoned during the Stalin era of the Soviet Union, who had been told that his beloved wife had abandoned him. This was based on his letters to his wife. He's asking with whom he can now share his sorrows. He was later released, spent a few final months with his wife, and was then re-arrested and executed for opposing the communist regime.
he plays SO many instruments including he ROCKS on the drums!! you should look up the history of this song...it's all connected thru the story/history. and his LIVE performance at his 2017 CONCERT IS AMAZING: Dimash - Adai+Daididau, Bastau 2017. DQ IS A MASTER AT CREATING DRAMA, SUSPENSE ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT, AND THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE!
I have a greater appreciation for music since Dimash. I love how he stays with the music even when he is not singing. And how he uses silence as an instrument
Awesome reaction, I see you already watched Adagio. Please do yourself a favour and watch the singer version of Adagio, there is a night and day difference between the versions.
