From Floor's official site: The first episode of the Dutch tv show ‘Beste Zangers’ aired today! (i.e. Aug. 24th) Every episode is about one of the singers and tonight’s one is about the amazing and versatile Henk Poort. It was an honor for me to sing for him!!! I know him from the days he was the phantom in The Phantom Of The Opera and His voice and that show had a big impact on me! For those who don’t know the concept of the show: it’s not a contest and it’s not about who is the best of the singers. We sing each other’s songs and enjoy making music together. This joy we shall share with you! I hope you will enjoy, I did!

In the longer version from this episode they have the reactions from the fellow singers as well. No one in the Netherlands (well, except for Nightwish and Epica fans - the symphonic metal scene in the Netherlands isn't THAT large (compared to, say, Germany or Finland) has ever heard of Floor Jansen - including the other singers. So when she came in as a "metal singer", no one knew what to make of her. And she set the stage with this performance. Everyone was totally shocked how well she sang because no one expected a "metal singer" to perform like she did. If you hunt around youtube a bit, you'll find the longer version (which helps to explain the story behind the song choices) and the episodes have English subtitles for the Dutch conversations.

Floor is good friends with Henk Poort. And that is the song his mother sang to him, so it has a special meaning for him. Floor, being Floor, added her personal metal twist to it without destroying anything from the singing part (except for speeding it up quite a bit). Henk kind of get's even with her when they both do the Nightwish version of Phantom of the Opera and he surprises her when he does the 2nd verse with a rasp, much like Marco from Nightwish does.

Well, Floor mentioned that she only uses her classical vocal technique when it is needed and suits a particular song. Otherwise she prefers using other styles in her repertoire. The reason for that is, from what I remember, that she just doesn´t feel the emotional connection to classical music in operas - it also does not allow for vocal nuances that a microphone can amplify.

Yes and no. Most of the training is from Rock Academy and she studied classical and opera later to be able to spice up her rock and metal performances with them. Unlike Tarja opera never was here "own" style, it's just one tool in her toolbox. And being able to sing unamplified is a curiosity because you just can't sing unamplified when performing with a metal band. Mixers must be able to adjust and fine tune, and full blown Nightwish instrumentation would be annoying to sing over.

She sings it twice the speed 😜 : Vilja Lied from the Opretta "Die Lüstige Wetwe" by Franz Lehar, 1905 Es lebt' eine Vilja, ein Waldmägdelein. Ein Jäger erschaut' sie im Felsengestein. Dem Burschen, dem wurde so eigen zu Sinn, Er schaute und schaut' auf das Waldmägdlein hin. Und ein nie gekannter Schauer Faßt' den jungen Jägersmann. Sehnsuchtsvoll Fing er still zu seufzen an: 'Vilja, oh Vilja, du Waldmägdelein, Faß mich und laß mich dein Herzliebster sein! Vilja, oh Vilja, was tust du mir an!' Bang fleht ein liebkranker Mann. Das Waldmägdlein streckte die Hand nach ihm aus Und zog ihn hinein in ihr felsiges Haus. Dem Burschen die Sinne vergangen fast sind: So liebt und so küßt gar kein irdisches Kind! Als sie sich dann sattgeküßt, Verschwand sie zu derselben Frist. Einmal noch Hat der Arme sie gegrüßt.

There's both a classical and a contemporary vession of "Sleeping Sun", both Floor and Anette sing the contemporary version, while Tarja sang both. What is her versatility Floor fans sell her? Sure isn't classical style singing. Maybe this pseudo-classical beginner level singing is okay for a "reality TV" show... but I doubt she will sing in Nightwish concerts that style... and even less record it, because that would go to professional critics.

Beste Zangers is a Dutch TV programme in which a few Dutch singers travel to Ibiza to record this show. It's not a competition. The premise of the show is to basically sing each others' songs and/or songs that the guest of honour (each week will be dedicated to a different person) has a special connection to. Floor Jansen is a very big artist in the metal scene, but in the Netherlands she gets basically no media coverage. I also believe this is the first time a metal artist has participated on this show. Usually people who do this show are well known singers, or singers that are popular at the time. During this episode Henk Poort was the guest of honour, his background is opera. Floor Jansen sang this song for him, but in her own style.

In the show she actually said she wanted to sing it in the original language the song was written in(which is German) instead of English, which is pretty cool because she never sings in German. This song is for the elderly man, Henk Poort, you see in the video. He's a famous opera singer in the Netherlands and his mother(also an opera singer) used to sing this song to him as a child, hence the teary eyed reaction. In the episode after this she sang a song called "mama" in Dutch, which is a truly amazing performance. You should check it out, it's wonderful to hear her sing in her native language!! Lots of love from the Netherlands 😊

This was an interesting reaction. I get the impression you thought she was attempting to do a full out operatic performance. You have to take into consideration that this is a tv-production. She was paying homage to Henke and adding a touch of her angle, if there was an orchestra in the pit and an acoustically opera specific hall she'd adapt to that. This is her talent, efficiently combining so many techniques and a performing persona that millions love. That is what I also educated within music production find so impressive.

Yes, Floor discussed before getting up to sing that she had performed this song in her studies in school. As these songs in this show are all going up on spotify, it would probably be harder to do a professional mix if everything isn't mic'd. They are basically outside under a tent. Not acoustically the best for recording classical singing in the best of circumstances. I think I noticed reverb added to her mic for a more "amphitheatre" like sound but I might be wrong.

Beste Zangers is a summer show in the Netherlands. A group of professional singers from a whole set of different styles come together. Each episode one of the singers gets sung to by the rest. Those other singers will do renditions of the singer in the spotlight and/or songs that are important to the singer in the spotlight. It's not a competition. This episode had henk Poort as the central figure. he's amongst many other things a opera singer, and this song was a song his mother used to sing at home when he was little. The concept of the show is really cool, and there is a youtube video out there of the whole episode with english subtitles. Oh minor peeve.

I'm amazed how a vocal coach missed so badly on the mic use ... she had to use one for the tv recording. Frankly Floor has to hold back instead of letting it go because if she lets it go at full power it will blow out the mic. I've watched about 30 vocal coaches react to this and sadly this reaction is the only one that claims Floor gets to take it easy because of the mic. This whining about singing with a mic instead of unamplified is completely unrelated to the way this show is presented. The stage was about 8 X 8 ... in a TENT ... and yet we get whining about using a mic ... unbelievable and frankly completely wrong when you take into context the venue and show format. If this was a life performance in an appropriate venue bring the comment but in this case it truly doesn't apply. Truly a shame you missed what was done, why, and how hard she worked to sing in German for her idol when she doesn't speak German fluently and never sings in German yet for Henk she worked to make the German perfect while still giving it a bit of metal twist yet slipping seamlessly into operatic as well. Instead of recognizing all of that we got criticism that came across as whining / suggestion that this was easy to do because of the mic ... BULLSH**!!!!!!! Just to be clear this was a very emotional song for Henk as his mother (a well known Opera singer) sang it often to his (step) father who Henk grew up worshipping. This meant a lot to him that Floor did it her way yet kept it beautiful (his words). He loved it! Floor nearly brought him to tears with her performance. Reason you are a coach and not a professional performer .... you can nitpick the technical while apparently being incapable of recognizing good music that was done in the singer's own style instead of the rigid performance rules you want to apply.

Great reaction Valerie. I liked it very much that you investigated the meaning of the show. A little supplement is the song can also have a special meaning for the central guest. For example: Last week Henk Poort sang for Rolf Sanches in spanish the song Noelia. The grandmother of Ralf always sang this song for him. Everybody was crying. Also Floor. It was an amazing performance. Please react on this one: kzitem.info/news/bejne/2q6wmGuDnpupmoo

You may know opera, but you’ve obviously have not spent one second on a rock stage. I spent years standing on a stage with flashing lights, lasers, explosions, and fire whlie guitars, drums, and a screaming audience did their best to drown me out. All the while I had to play my bass, keeping the time structure, remembering the lyrics, sing on key, and move about being the entertaining front man. I’ve spent my life in awe of opera and classical music, only to constantly see our genre bear the brunt of elitist snide remarks from those drawing upon their deep well of ignorance. Pardon this child of a lesser god for having the nerve.

Nah that sounds to perfect that's a studio mix. I don't know a lot about singing but I do know a lot about audio. There is no where on God's earth that a building would have acoustics like that. Now I think Floor is capable of singing like that from her mic with a bit of audio help but the band sound too perfect to be a real live performance. I think it's tracked both the band and her voice. Still impressive though but overproduced.

Vocal Splendor Studios and thank you for reacting to it. ignore the trolls. When we found out floor was going to do this, I figured it would be fun to hear the reactions of several of the better vocal coaches, and you are certainly among the best! I’ve heard Nightwish live in 2015 and 2018, and they and Floor are even more amazing in person

@@VocalSplendorStudios Fair enough. It was only my personal feeling of the video as a whole. I am a fan as well (of both the classical repertoire and Nightwish). Your assumption of her having the training in hardcore opera, but not the daily practice, felt spot on, as well as the observation that singing this kind of thing directly into a microphone is very different to the usual setting of the song.

Yeah, you were honest. I must say I lost my respect to Rebecca Vocal Athlete when she reacted to this song. I understand being nice, but... yeah. I've heard 3 vocal coaches before you talking about Floor's classical skills. She has had one year of training to it, so yeah she can sing the style... but she is just a beginner, not good in it (not only my opinion, that's them 3 vocal coaches). Why is she now doing it though, when she previously said she doesn't like to sing in that style? Well, suppose she just entertains her fans to whom it's quite enough. Or actually to whom it's heavenly. There's plenty of rabid Floor fanbois though that claim she is an excellent operatic singer.

Floor is not an operatic singer but she has had some operatic training. This is typical of many vocal performance majors especially in the US. Most people do not understand what it means to be an opera singer. Floor does bring a classical approach to some of her work, even in Nightwish. I enjoyed her rendition and found it fun. That said, most working opera singers have had 10 years of vocal training at least.

There's gonna be hate. Vocal coach Zach Ansley got hundreds of thumb downs for criticism of Floor's classical skills. But he didn't care, he said he will give his honest opinion no matter what. Beth Roars (another vocal coach) and The Honest Vocal Coach also gave criticism to Floor's classical skills. Floor has ONE YEAR of classical education, think one becomes a master operatic singer in that time?? It costs a LOT OF POPULARITY AND MONEY to be bluntly honest.

For everyone who's interested in the dutch tv show BESTE ZANGERS here is an english wkipedia-link: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beste_Zangers Last week season 12 started with (as always) 7 dutch singers - one of them this year FLOOR JANSEN. In episode 1 they all sang songs connected to the life of Henk Poort, the older gentleman, an famous dutch opera and musical singer. Complete episode 1 is available online at the tv stations page (but I don't know for how long, sorry): www.npostart.nl/beste-zangers/24-08-2019/AT_2119260
