"Voi Che Sapete" by AMIRA Willighagen & MARIA Ewing (Song Story) 

I truly hope that I will live long enough to hear Amira sing this when she is 25 or 26 yo. The quality of her performances are 'flabbergasting' (as Andre Reiu said)

As always. Her voice is outstanding!

I think Amira’s up to there with the best as shown here in this video Thanks again Ray ☘️🌈🇮🇪

Hello Ray, thank you 100000 times this is a nice surprise, Amira has no equal, totally natural talent, now from Canada, have a nice day.

Ray once again Amira surpasses herself elegance and beautiful thanks again my friend ☘️☘️☘️🐢🐢🌹🌹

Thank you Ray, this is wonderful, Amira sings beautifully to the point of making tearful and Maria's voice provides the contrast that reinforces the genius Amira displays in singing so masterfully as an infant, the combination is priceless.

What a fantastic voice Amira has, she is just getting better as maturity is setting in. All Canada 🇨🇦 loves her and that is a fact.

Another great performance by Amira. Maria is beautiful too. Thanks Ray for another fantastic presentation. Fan from Fresno, CA USA

Amira it´s always deleighted to hear $ listen your beautiful angelic voice coming out from your lovely spirit as it´s a GIFT. Blessings from Mexico City.

Excellent, vivid & artistic presentations of this song with the beautiful youth voices of Amira Willighagen n earlier exquisite performance of established Soprano.....great work of introduction, story telling, translation n choices of scenes......truely romantic, poetic & captivating.....many thanks, sir Ray 🤗🤗👏👏

wow, that was great Amira. Keep up the good work!

Again a delightful and beautiful video Ray, keep sowing, its such a pleasure to listen to dear Amira

Good comparison Ray with Amira and Maria Ewing. Both really really good but Amira though - for me - has a warmer more acoustically vibrant more tonal voice. I think this is why many say they can listen to Amira all day every day while other top sopranos would be turned of after a while. There never are any winners though as all are tops.

the Amira video is among the most beautiful I've ever seen. this other soprano is tops.

...Ray! A very nice video!!! Great work... love it...

Amira is wonderful!

Seeing the lyrics makes a huge difference in appreciating the songs. Otherwise it's just a string of pleasant sounds.

Would you like to have your own "Song Story" from your favorite song/artist? ALAN WOOD is the winner. Congrats!!! Birthday of both Amira and Maria is the same, March 27.

Rey your vídeo of Amira are the best. Thank you.

Fantastic as ever!!!

ray how is amira fans in america has she hit them with her voice yet.

Beautiful piece of work. Bravo to all concerned. When will Amira resume her concert appearances?

AMIRA👍❤️💐💋🤩

Amira hace que lo es bello se embellezca aún más,ella tiende puentes desde los que no nos atraía tanto la ópera a hacernos fan de ella y de la ópera,esas cosas las logran solo las personas muy especiales,Amira es una de esas personas, gracias por acercarnos este tipo de videos muy bellos 👏

Thoroughly loved this , thank you Ray!🌟

Beautiful clip! A wonderful and very passionate song about the first mysterious and inexplicable heartbeats for love, beautifully sung by both artists. It takes me back over the years, to the time of my first love at school! However, without taking anything away from Maria Edwing who is very good and very professional, when I listen to Amira's version I feel something that enters my heart and crosses my soul that I have never tried with any other singer. Our little Princess is unique in making your heart vibrate too, only she has this magical power, "...Non so ch'il tiene, non so cos'è" !!! ❤️ VOI CHE SAPETE Voi che sapete che cosa è amor, donne vedete s'io l'ho nel cor. (Rit) Quello ch'io provo vi ridirò; è per me nuovo, capir nol so. Sento un affetto pien di desir, ch'ora è diletto, ch'ora è martir. Gelo, e poi sento l'alma avvampar, e in un momento torno a gelar. Ricerco un bene fuori di me. Non so ch'il tiene, non so cos'è. Sospiro e gemo senza voler, palpito e tremo senza saper. Non trovo pace notte, nè dì, ma pur mi piace languir così. Voi che sapete che cosa è amor, donne, vedete s'io l'ho nel cor. (Rit)

Ray , I think you meant to compare the voices of Amira and Maria. Am I right.? The comparison was just and wise. For moments, from one voice to another, i couldn't make the difference. One is more mature, the other not, she is an infant. But the voices are very alike, as if it was younger Maria and older Amira. You are a genius.

Well Ray since you have made guessing game out of two of the best versions of "Voi Che Sapete" ever recorded i think its the letters in their first names being the same. I think everything is special about your song story's

schöne Zusammenstellung..

Bellisimo video Ray. Saludos.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Amira, Você é demais,que bom assistir um vídeo atual pois mostra que você Está beijossss!!!

Muito bom.linda

❤️👍

Hello Ray ,a very well thought out video & comparison of voice always intriguing. .Amira through the Looking Glass just brilliant .A priceless tone with such depth of feeling.At her Optimum Astonishing !.More Please !.

❤

Very nice ! Again, I learned something from your Song Story, while listening to great soprano voices! Comparing past (Maria) and future (Amira) is also interesting. Thanks Ray

I would have loved to see Maria Ewing playing the role of Cherubino. Truly outstanding. During Amira's performance, I was puzzled at 1:44. You have the correct subtitle: I feel an affection, full of lust. But Amira does not sing the lyrics of this aria "Sento un affetto pien' di desir'. Rather, she seems to repeat parts of a previous verse. What was it ? Political correctness ?

What a delight to hear our Amira sing. However, I don't need nor want all the video garbage cluttering up the performance.

Hi Ray, could it be the wedding ring at minute 3,25? It shows the page that the countess is married. I doubt that in those days that type of ring was used.

Bon chant, mais très soporifique de la jeune fille ….Maria Ewing, par contre est excellente d’interprétation !…🙏⛩

Beautiful voice. But please practice to pronounce Italian language correctly and properly, especially the letter R, T

Amira es muy buena pero.no a pulido su voz.como la princesa de la ópera LAURA BRETAN

Amira is pitchy, unfortunately.
