[quote:Frayed Knot:MV8yNDM3MjUyXzQxODk0NjQ3XzlEOTZFM0VG] Would love to hear her perform that song without the stupid audience and "judges" ruining it by applauding every time she hits a high note. God, that was annoying. But the little girl is amazing. [/quote]

As many of you all know, I'm a huge fan of Opera. I fell in love with Maria Callas' angelic voice when I was little. She was born in 1923 and passed away in 1977.
Here is Maria singing "Ava Maria". You don't have to listen to the whole thing, but you need to hear a bit of it for a comparison.

Now. Listen to this little girl sing "O Mio Babbino Caro". Amira Willighagen is from Nijmegen, The Netherlands and is nine years old.

Uitstekend! I'm just...
The child's demeanor is more mature and humble than most adults I know. I don't know where her knowledge of singing comes from, but she didn't get it from a professional who has trained their voice for years and years. Everything about this child is magical. Old soul? Walk in? I mean. What the heck? How does a voice like that come out of a child that small? She has skill that takes most opera singers years to master.
I can post the full version of the little girl's performance w/English subtitles if anyone is interested. Wow.
