For young and emerging musical artists, it can be difficult enough to sing in front of a small group of friends and family. Throw in a live audience and millions of viewers at home and it seems like it is a miracle when child performers can get out there and do their thing with ease.
In this video from 2016, this young girl named Anna performs the classic song Over the Rainbow on The Voice Kids. Her talents are clear from the beginning, as the judges all turn around instantly to try and become her coach.
Young Anna proved that she is worthy of the big stage when she belted out the classic hit Over the Rainbow. The awe-inspiring performance took place during an episode of The Voice Kids.
Not only did Anna sing the song beautifully and without fear, but she also showed her bravery by choosing such a traditional and well-loved song. Although many people know the song as performed by Israel Kamakawiwole in 1993, the piece actually goes back to 1939.
The moving song was originally written by Yip Harburg and Harold Arlen for Judy Garland to sing in the beloved film The Wizard of Oz. Despite the song being over 80 years old, it still retains a loyal following of fans. It is truly impressive that Anna picked this song to try!
The budding artist spent hours working on every note until she had achieved absolute perfection. Her hard work shows when she takes to the stage and belts out the tune.
