Amira

You cannot tell me that this little girl was not an opera singer in a previous lifetime. Where did such mastery of music, such vocal skill, and such poise come from? She won the sixth season of Holland's Got Talent in 2013 at the age of 9.

O Mio Babbino Caro is one of my favorite operatic songs. And so…

The song of the day is Giacomo Puccini’s O Mio Babbino Caro performed by the Johann Strauss Orchestra conducted by AndrĂ© Rieu and sung by (then) 10 year old Amira (Amira Willighagen). The song is a soprano aria from the opera Gianni Schicchi (1918).
