VOCAL COACH REACTS | DIMASH KUDAIBERGEN... SOS... FIRST TIME LISTENING TO HIM EVER.

Welcome!

I'm Julia, a contemporary singing specialist based in Australia and in this video I will be reacting to Dimash Kudaibergen singing SOS on Chinese TV show I Am A Singer (歌手). This is my first time listening to Dimash (I know, apparently I have been living under a rock) so I hope you enjoy my react! If you did please like, subscribe and click the bell.

There is one part of the video where I go into a little detail about whistle notes. My off-hand comment was "ok, ok so uh, we just heard Dimash approach a whistle register, it's almost there but that's still really high for a male I wonder how high he can go in a pure whistle". If you aren't interested in that please skip forward to 6:47 to continue with the react. Also please forgive my drawings I am not THAT kind of arts graduate.... I just make, teach and coach the vocal noises :)

Let me know if there is anything you'd like me to react to in the comments!

Dimash was completely unknown in China when he sang this his first song in the Chinese show "The Singer." The following morning his life changed when he got 600 Million hits on Weibo the Chinese Instagram. For the rest of the series he needed security guards because he had so many fans. After the show finished the Kasakhstan Government decided to sponsor his first solo concert in Bastau where 30, 000 people from many different countries came to see him. He is now a Megastar in Kasakhstan, China and Russia, and has fans all over the world. Last December he sold-out the Barclays Center, New York 19, 000. He is the only singer in the world who is able to sing Any style of music (Opera, Jazz, Folk, Rap etc) in any register (Baritone, Tenor, Contralto, Soprano) to Top Professional Standard. He is utterly Unique. 😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

Btw and FYI; Dimash was offered a position at the Astana Opera (Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan), but, he decided to carve out his career in contemporary music, mixing classical elements and traditional Kazakh music with pop music

Can we assume he passed the test? If not, he has been practicing and he's a LOT better now.

Help me... I’m stuck in the endless limbo of watching ppl react to dimash.. help!!!

[fikryhasan]

And legend has it that there is no turning back once you've known Dimash and been Dimashified 😂
But jokes aside, thank you for reacting to Dimash, and welcome to the wonderworld of Dimash that will bring you up and down in the rollercoaster ride. Each song will reveal a new side of him that will leave you blown away for sure. And thanks for the explanation with the pictures, it makes it easy to understand (and cute too). Please react to Sinful Passion if you still want to continue reacting to him. Thanks again Julia, stay safe!! 😊

OK, you've been successfully Demashed! On to "Ogni Pietra (Olimpico)', "Your Love, " and "Across Endless Dimensions."

I remember seeing in an interview that he fought hard to keep the ability to reach high notes because it allowed him to have more interaction with female singers as a teenager. Well played, sir... Well played.

This is a song from a French Rock Opera in 1978 or 79. The original singer had a 4.5 octave range. Dimash at this point has a 6 octave 2 semi-tone range. He was 22 years old at the time and will be 26 on May 24, 2020.

The people saying wow here are Dimash's competitors.

If you fancy his Operatic side, consider his duet with Aida Garifullina at Igor's Anniversary celebration last year. The song is Ulisse.

After this performance, next day when he woke up there was 600 million hits from Chinese viewers. Instant super star. He has a millions of fans around the world. His concerts are sold out very fast. New York City concert on December 10th 2019 at Barclays Center - Brooklyn was incredible, almost 3 hours with no intermission, just quick breaks for wardrobe change. Unforgettable night, once in life time. People from over 50 countries attended his concert. He blew the roof of the building. Sensational.

My brother was a principal opera singer in Baz Luhrman’s La Boheme.ive watched a lot of opera and am classically trained in voice and flute.I am a complete novice and my brother is a scrub in comparison to what Dimash can do in one song, my family’s resume doesn’t even fit in Dimash’s pinky! the dude has continued to train since the age of 5, plays about 8 instruments, sings in 12 different languages, composes music himself and collaborates with Igor Krutoy, for example, the Russian opera award winner-‘Ogni Pietra’/‘Olympico’ (in Italian), the gothic Italian masterpiece ‘Passione’, ‘Vocalise’-‘Know’, ‘Love is like a Dream’ (Russian), Ti Amo Cosi (Italian) where he sings in bass/baritone to Aida Garifullina’s soprano and Lara Fabian’s crystal clear pop tones. When he was about 15 he composed ‘Unforgettable Day’ ? Sung In Kazakh. At Gakku he sang it and he hits a sustained D8 with vibrato! He’s a vocal god! I’ve got almost perfect pitch and he is always pitch He seems to thrive the larger the audience and the higher the stakes live. Amazing 25 year old man. Throw alll the superlatives you can think of at him. He is the absolute, perfect complete package.

"love a good surprise"
Well, you've come to the right place.
All the Dears (Dimash fans) know you are in for an amazing ride.

From what I can tell, Dimash doesn't jump into Whistle register until F6 and above. He commonly hits Eb6-E6 in many of his pieces, and this is considered a "head voice" in the operatic world - Much fuller than his whistle notes.

[aprilmay]

So glad you've finally discovered the gem that is Dimash! For more of that classical baritone register, check out "Olimpico (with Igor Krutoy)" and "Passione (from New Wave)", which were both composed for him by Krutoy, and of course, ""Love is Like a Dream" and "Love of Tired Swans."

Ohh you've been successfully Dimashified. Some say he is the Eighth wonders of the world, many others say he an alien and the others say he is a vocal God. Welcome to the insanity world of the Legend Dimash. Loved your reaction, btw the video and audio quality is on top❤

[quinchin]

Once in a life time someone so special, so superior comes along and blows everyone else away - that someone is Dimash !! Evoking emotion is the main point of music - Dimash delivers that in bucket loads. He doesn't just sing a song - he becomes the song body and soul ! Amazing !! I have been following Dimash since this performance back in 2017 - he's even better now !! I hope you react to more Dimash - you will not be disappointed. Thank you for your great reaction Julia.

[bontu]

This was three years ago !!! and Dimash is improving every day ! You have not heard anything yet !! and you have no idea how much fun awaits you discovering Dimash !!!
Today I consider Dimash to be the most talented, the best educated and the hardest working vocalist on this planet (in any vocal category) ! But you have to check it by yourself !
Best regards from Poland !
