Voice Teacher Reacts and Analyzes: DIMASH - Unforgettable Day (Gakku) 

This "Gakku" festival took place in September 2017 in Almaty, Kazakhstan. It is said that the city center was paralyzed on the day of the concert. More than 150,000 spectators gathered in the central square of the city. Many came then only because of Dimash. Dimash performed at the end of the concert and sang 5 songs. It was evident that Dimash was relaxed on stage because the competition in China was behind him. The festival is not a competition, and Dimash was HOME, among his countrymen and DEARS. In the song "Unforgettable Day" he took a chance and sang D8. And before the D8 he was waving his microphone, but we didn't hear the sound. I think it was some ultra-sound that only animals hear, and people don't hear. It is said that Dimash sang D8 - "the whistling of the dolphin" and it was the longest sound of this high note. In the history of modern singing performance, the longest sound of this note. There are singers who take this high note, but for so long to keep it no one can.

Mister John, Dimash wrote the music for this song

👍A Dear told a nice story: Dimash first sings an ultrasound 🤣, then he remembers that we humans can’t hear it and gifted us a D8 :)

When Dimash sings a song that he wrote himself is like angel choir would have arrived to Earth. Otherwordly.

The actual whistle note is a D8 and is not even on the standard 88 key piano.

Bear in mind when most people say Dimash is the best singer in the world, they are not just talking about best technique or his range because yes, of course we know that singing is more than just technique but the thing is those other areas is also where Dimash brings a lot to the table. He is intensely passionate, expressive and emotive as a performer (please watch a few more of his performances and you will know what I mean), he gives every inch of his body and soul and that level of commitment adds to the experience of watching him perform. So, yes, I agree with you that good singing is more than good technique , but I think it is an understandable thing for some people to call him best singer when he literally brings not just best technique and the most versatility and range but also his passionate delivery, so the whole package of him as a singer is what is impressive and what makes some people call him best singer. Just like someone calling Meryl Streep or Cate Blanchett best actress in the world, it is a fair (and subjective) assessment of what they believe is best above others. So in that sense there is such a thing as best singer but like any other art medium it is never universally unanimous, and it just happens to be subjective is all (so to that person he may very well be the “best singer” in the subjective sense), whereas his technical expertise/virtuoso is *objectively* the best in the world . ..... And in my subjective view he is the overall best vocalist/singer. (And he doesn’t even sing in my favourite genres , lol, but yet despite that to me he is still hands down the best vocalist alive today for many reasons other than just technical expertise.) On another note he composed this song when he was basically a teenager (he was 18) many years ago. Then a few years later he collaborated with a lyricist (Oral Baissengir) to write the lyrics and then the song was released in 2015. He actually recently got his Master’s Degree in Composition (He already had other degrees in classical/pop/jazz singing). Great example of how hardworking he is and how he constantly wants to improve himself even more than he already is which is incredible in itself. Kudos to him for that level of commitment and inspiring others to also do more and be better and to never stop. ..... Please react to (if you haven’t already) “Love is Like a Dream” and “Passione” next. Thanks.

Thanks John, you too paid attention to, what I love Dimash for. Not only for his legendary D8, but an exceptional richness of tones, colors, silky softness and a sense of voice 💖 Please react to Samaltau from Tokyo Jazz Festival plus, a live stream from Dimash's home studio. Only him, sitting on a stool in socks, with his legs crossed, and two musicians with instruments imitating the voices of animals and nature. Wonderful, magical.

That was a D8 my friend. You should check out Know by Dimash next!

My DEAR JOHN!........THANKS for your reactions to Dimash!!!! Dimash is in his own class, there’s good singers there’s great singers and then there’s Dimash. Actually almost a 7 octaves range. From barítono to soprano. E1 Growling E2 lowest chest A1 lowest vocal fry C6 highest mix F#6 highest head D8 highest whistle Which is 6 octaves and 5 semitones. In growl , He can go down to a E1. 6 octaves and 8 semitones. Tenors don’t usually sing in the lower half of the 2nd octave.... which He smashes :D To put that in comparison: He sings lower than bass in Opera. The lowest note is usually D2....and higher longer sustained whistle note. Total Dimash range is E1-D8.......greetings from a Mexican Dear!.....❤️🇲🇽🇰🇿

THANKS for your reactions to Dimash!!!!......Unforgettable Day. This performance was on Gakku Is Kazajistán at 2017. Is Dimash song and is in Kazakh, is Dimash music. The most highest note in the World, D8 (4800 hz) vibrato ( dolphin note) by 5 seconds. Is an amazing performance. Greetings from a Mexican Dear! ❤️🇲🇽❤️🇰🇿

Dimash packs more into one song than Amazon could fit into a Jumbo. And he flies higher, touching down ever so gently here after the ride of a lifetime.

That D8 is one of his endless supply of party tricks! It's nuts what the man can do with his voice...my brain can't compute!

Of all the vocal coaches I've seen, only you and Mike Goodrich really gave importance to the amazing tenor D5!! To me, this is actually the most important part of the song, which almost everybody neglects...! This is why I'm hoping so much that you will react to Dimash's Ogni Pietra.

Приятно видеть неподдельное восхищение профессионалов и слышать восклицания "Крейзи". Димаш-уникальный Артист! Жаль нет субтитров, но по эмоциям все поняла. Рахмет за реакцию❤

Off all the reactions of this version of Unforgettable Day, which I've seen so many people reacted to, this was the BEST and it's always nice to hear from a pro voice teacher. I agree with your thoughts of where Dimash is, as a singer, and yes there is no such thing as the best singer in the world, but none has the range as he does. Thanks for the reaction.

Hi John, we are fascinated by abilities of Dimash to sing every sound, to turn every sound into a singing. That's why we call him the best voice in the world. He is just mesmerazing.

Dimash does some of that distortion or growl on the vocalise version of Know from his Arnau concert. He is so versatile and a pleasure to listen too.💕 Thank you for your insight on Dimash's vocal abilities and styles.

Dimash composed unforgettable Day several years ago. He is brilliant, received his Master’s Degree in Composition a few months ago & is presently studying for his PhD in Musicology. Dimash is incredible , unique & incomparable, best of the best & humble. 🤗😍❤️🥰🇨🇦

Thank you so much for your professional reactions to Dimash as always.

Dimash is the best singer in the WORLD and there are no doubts about that, his voice is a prodigy of nature and a genetic marvel since his parents are two glories of singing from Kazakhstan since he was 5 years old, he sings publicly and has more than twenty years of lyrical training and graduated from the university of music, he is a singer, composer, arranger and multi instrumentalist, he plays more than seven musical instruments and sings in more than seven languages, he is also a great performer and a great artist who lives and feels music He is not an imitator of voices like "Marcelito", Dimash has his own style and is the creator of the "Popera" he also has a very pleasant, humble and simple personality, easy access, which makes it very easy to follow, he always travels with His family and friends is a very educated person and an example to follow, he has become known for his musical talent not for getting into trouble or scandals, he is a singer with a wide vocal range very versatile is Baritone, Tenor, Sopra no, against Tenor, mezasoprano, everything at the same time is how to have 5 singers in one, it has a male and female voice, also many resources such as vibrato, "melismas", falsetto, whistle tone, reaching a D8 live at the concert of Gakku in an unforgettable day, at his young age he continues to improve and grow musically to perfection, he has a good physical presence he measures 191 cm or 6 "3", he is very famous and recognized in Asia and now he is becoming known In Europe and America, ALL their songs are spectacular, it always goes from low to high, soft to spectacular at the end, in my almost half a century of life I never heard so much quality and it is the hope of continuity of the classical genre because all the old tenors have already Almost all of them died and Dimash can sing like them but none of them can sing like Dimash, being a Man he sings better than any Tenor and his female voice is superior to that of any average Soprano, greetings and a hug from Venezuela ❤️

Great reaction Mr. John, this D8 is really amazing. Dimash is the best singer in the world without any doubt. Respect and Greetings to you and Dimash 🇰🇿 from 🗿Chile 🇨🇱

Джон,не пропадайте,появляйтесь чаще.Все ждём Вашего квалифицированного мнения.Будьте здоровы и успешны!

Your face full of confusion when he hit that Note 😂 always so on point with your reactions and analysis! 👍🏼👍🏼

For me. He’s the Best Singer. I’ve ever heard. Thanks

Thanks for this reactions at Dimash, he is extraordinary artist. Saludos

Thank you couch for the detailed and honest reaction to the Impacable singer.Dimash is the 8th wonder of the world.please react to his Across the endless dimensions, masked singer Our love,late autumn performances.you will be shock couch😳😁.

Mister Johnny, Thank you for your professional review. Dimash is truly Gift od God for our Earth. Welcome in His Galaxy 😁 Greetings from Poland 🙋‍♀️🇵🇱❤️

Димаш фантастика Д8

What gets lost in all of Dimash's incredible range and acrobatic singing is just how good the rest is. Take away his crazy top end and he is still among the best singers in the world. His belt has to be by far the best out there.

Спасибо за реакцию！Вы очень профессиональны！Очень приятно Ваше экспертное мнение, о вокале Димаша！Посмотрите пожалуйста, другие гениальные произведения Димаша！

That's his D8 - off the piano! Thank you for your analysis and thoughts! Great! He is the best singer on the planet.

I would like for you to take a look at his autumn strong and vocalise from Kiev concert. Yes he can do growls.

If you want to hear growl, try Drunken Concubine with Li Yugang or Know (the vocalise one) and if you want to hear longer melismas try Hello from the 2018 Singer comp.

His breath control is phenomenal. He delivers even from a forward kneeling position. I'd love to see an x-ray of this guy's diaphragm. Gotta be something for the record books.

Thank you so much for getting back to a Dimash reaction! Really appreciate your knowledge. It's a D8 on that whistle note! I hope you will do some more Dimash soon. I would love to hear what you have to say about Love is Like a Dream, it's quite a learning experience and so beautiful.

He does distortion and growls!!! He sang the show must go on and did a little distortion there and growls in quite a few songs 🎵

Thank you for reacting to Dimash! I can't sing and I have no idea how difficult is to sing like that. I just know that I am addicted to his Voice. 😍🎶🇩🇪

Dimash the best singer and king Vocal.

Обожаю эту песню.Димаш,солнышко ты наше.Как же ты прекрасен,талантлив.Желаю,чтобы рядом с тобой всегда был покой,уют.Счастья тебе дорогой!!!

Dimash is the best of the best!

I really appreciate your comments John. I have passed over your reactions in the past to my own loss. You are appreciative of what you are hearing and helpful and concise in your commentary. I do agree with you that "There is no such thing". And I agree that we have never had anyone quite like him. If you like Dimash that makes us friends. If you love Dimash that makes us family. I am now a subscriber :)

It was hilarious looking at a vocal coach searching for a note that isn't even on the piano in confusion 😂 Great reactions man

Hi John - gosh it seems like an age since you last reacted to Dimash and it's great to see another one from you especially as it's the one with the famous D8. Actually I'm with you on not paying it too much attention beyond surprise, because, as you say, that wonderful full belted note following shortly afterwards is so much more beautiful to the ears. Please do more Dimsh reactions, I so appreciate your skilled analysis, information and enjoyment !

D8!!!!!!!

Легок на помине,недавно вспоминала про вас.спасибо и не пропадайте так надолго.❤

Dimash is a gift from God to us all 🙏 the best singer in the history! Hello from Romania! Love Dimash!

Thank you 🙏🏼 Please can you react to Dimash ‘Olimpico/Ogni Pietra’ (the best version is on Igor Krutoy’s RU-vid channel - he is the composer) as this song won Dimash the most prestigious award in Russia for classical singing (the first non Russian to do so). Plymouth UK 🇬🇧

Dear John, the whistle is off the piano D8. If you want confirmation watch or react to Dimash Extreme Vocal For Male Voice where they post the notes he hits including this one. 🎶👱‍♀️👗👠👠💓

Thank you for your reaction and comments. I waited for the confusion when he hit the D8. You need a "longer" piano. 😂 Dimash does use vocal fry, distortion, and growl. He has a couple current songs where he uses vocal fry.

Дорогой Джон, спасибо за реакцию.Хочу Вам сказать, что эту песню Димаш написал сам, 7 лет назад.У него около7- 8 своих песен.Исполняет он их сам.

Dimash welcome you to this atmosphere

Please react to dimash autumn strong ❤️ Chinese song

Next please LOVE IS LIKE A DREAM....KNOW @ new wave....DAYBREAK @ bastau concert...OGNI PIETRA @ arnau concert...THE LOVE OF TIRED SWANS....AUTUMN STRONG @ the singer....SAMALTAU @ tokyo jazz

Thanks, John, for coming back to Dimash. It's been a minute. If I had the opportunity to request an in-depth analysis of Dimash's vocals from someone with your credentials, it wouldn't be for this song. "Unforgettable Day" is a fan favorite (for mostly sentimental reasons), and this version is the most requested primarily because of the one insane D8 whistle note. But, for me, Dimash has dozens of songs and live performances that offer much better opportunities for professional vocal analysis than "Unforgettable Day" does. I appreciate your expertise in bringing this to us, and I hope you'll return with a future Dimash analysis to a more vocally complex song. Thanks again, it's good to see you back 🌹

Hello john please react to dimash ogni pietra arnau...

He actually does distortion and growls, though not often (growls more often than distortion). If you want to see a song with a growl, please react to vocalise from his last concert in Kiev (he sings this version without lyrics, and he doesn't need them) - it is on his channel.

Dimash love love is the best!!!

OMG! I woke up and saw your notification 😁 I was like WOO! John's back on Dimash reactions. You are my favorite Dimash reactor! Welcome back sweetie! ♥️

That's D8 baby!👏👏👏👏👏 Dimash❤

Thank you! Yes, most versatile! By the way, that whistle was a D8.

Yay! Dimash✨❤️✨ I love your commentary✨✨

Love the reaction please react to Dimash singing (Passione)

That’s an amazing D8 note

(Moscow,Russia ) Mister John,i lowe your commentary ! Сделай комментарий на « KNOW»( ARNAU TOUR Kiew Dimash ) Мы в России очень любим это исполнение ! Спасибо !

Я почти ничего не понимаю из того, о чем говорит уважаемый Джон, я не понимаю казахский язык, на котором поёт уникальный Димаш, но эмоции одного и другого заставляют меня плакать от счастья глядя на всё это, ибо у искусства нет никаких границ! Спасибо!

Who's the best singer of the world? You've answered what all D-ears had been said for millions times, but with your own wise & humble speech. I knew that, because I always use that way to make nobody's got hurted too. Thank you so much, Sir ❤️ I really appreciated that.

Hi! If you want to hear in the song the perfect combination of unique vocal data, the transfer of emotions and acting skills, then you should hear and see the performances of Diana Ankudinova. This is the best young vocalist on this planet.

This is a new level Dimash Kudaibergen - Across Endless Dimensions

I'm so glad someone appreciated something other than the D8.

Thank you John Henny🙏. Your reaction DIMASH🧡. GRETTINGS from México. Blessing.

He hit a C8 and slid to a D8 for 5 seconds. As for ur statement at the end. He can growl and distort his notes. If u watch the Song „know“ the vocalize version u can see him growl and in a queen medley with the „super vocal boys“ he did distortion at some part. yes he doesn’t do them often:) but he can

John, when Dimash was a teen, he got a lot of grief from other musicians and vocal judges for "screaming." I suspect in their minds, he was lacking the "good sense" to not belt on those--at the time--super high, tenor, piercing notes, although if you go back and listen, they were quite good even then. What we are seeing in this 2017 video is the beauty of the fully developed, mature, well-polished artist voice. He has learned just how far to take it, and he relieves the piercing sound with a bit more resonance, with vibrato, with whatever tool suits his vision. It's a thing of beauty, and my takeaway is that as an adult, there is so much room to encourage, support, and when it is appropriate, help others be their best selves. Thank you for doing that for singers!! I'm grateful! I'd love to see you post videos of your students learning with you, if they are willing.

Кому-то не нравится Димашжан на коленях это Мы перед Димашем на колениях Блогодарим за Красоту в Исполнениях. Любим и Молимся

Bravisimo, Dimash! Master Vokal Unikall in the World! Artist! Talent! Still specifico.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯

If you haven’t seen him sing The Show Must Go On by Queen you should check it out. It shows off his rock singing abilities and he does some great distortion in one of the sections. It’s the only time I can recall hearing him use distortion in his voice but he sounds like a pro doing it.

Thank you John for your reaction! Looking forward to more of Dimash. I don't believe I can ever get tired of hearing an informed, thoughtful analysis of his performances; I learn a bit with each and every one. Besides, what's better than mixing joy with education? Greetings from Alaska.

My new hobby is watching vocal coach's mind get blown by Dimash's performance.

Famous D8 note of Dimash. Please react to his song Love is like a dream.

Благодарю за реакцию🙏, очень хочется перевода.

Dimash best singer in the world

Thank you John ! Great analysis ,reaction and explain as always ! Please next one to be " Late Autumn " ( from I'm a Singer ) or " Daybreak " ( from a Bastau concert ) . With love from Bulgaria ❤ 🇧🇬♥

Дядька, конечно раскладывает по полной программе.

he growls in Ascolta la voce and in his duet with Li Yugang - a male (singing female) Peking opera singer.

Dimash the best is amazing¡🤗😲

Молодец. У тебя шевелились волосы, я видел.)) Hello from Russia.

And this is when Dimash was sick guys... what a beautiful love song too. He’s really loving the interaction with the audience.

Queen medley...hardly anyone notices his rock growl....super vocal boys...

Dimash Whistle Tone in the 3rd register is technically a D8 As a Dear Dimash's voice is truly a gift and a talent that is second to none. Thanks for the reaction to Dimash and hope to see more of his songs in the future.

Agree, he is most versatile. Keep reacting to D., think u will like Olympico from Maestro Igor Krutoy's channel. Thanks for reaction.

Алан переведи, пожалуйста. Очень нравится реакция этого симпатичного джентльмена

реакция супер, я рад что услышал квалифицированную оценку

Big thanks! Always enjoy your masterclassses on Dimash!

The famous D8... Dimash is unique...

Dimash el Dios del canto 🌬️

Love your reactions John, thank you. Your obvious expert knowledge of the voice and singing just makes it all the better. Regards from South Africa.

1.000.000 👍for Dimash!👏👏👏for reaction!

Nice one John! Thank you so much for those insights , very enlightening. Enjoy your Dimash journey, he's worth it🤗
