In the ongoing debate about talent’s origins (nature vs. nurture), a video featuring young opera singer Maria Cristina Craciun leans heavily towards the “nature” side.
In 2011, Maria Cristina, the granddaughter of the late tenor Luciano Pavarotti, performed “Caruso.” Her remarkable talent, reminiscent of the Pavarotti family, was evident from the first note, even though she was just 11 years old at the time.
Language barriers don’t matter; her powerful and passionate singing can move anyone to tears. Pavarotti, wherever he is, must be incredibly proud of her exceptional gift.
