The young Victory Brinker stands center stage before a crowd at Franklin’s Taste of Talent in Franklin, Pennsylvania. With no fear in sight, she begins a fantastic operatic performance. A feat a child her age would be afraid to do.
However, Victory is no regular child. She is an opera prodigy that has been challenging the world of music since she was two years of age. The young girl only began her career in opera singing at six years old.
Victory was influenced by watching videos on YouTube of others singing opera from a very early age. She was drawn to this style of singing by the high notes that the performers had to reach.
The video uploaded on the official YouTube channel for Franklin’s Taste of Talent singing competition shows a then six-year-old Victory performing a beautiful soprano aria from the opera ‘Gianni Schicchi.’
The piece titled ‘O mio babbino caro,’ meaning ‘Oh my dear papa,’ sings of the struggles between a father and daughter fighting over the man she loves. Even though it’s an adult theme for such a young girl, Victory sings it beautifully.
Victory Brinker ends her opera performance with a broad smile. The veil of poise and seriousness of the song breaks as the child’s innocence emerges with a slight curtsey with the applaud of the audience.
Viewers can’t help but comment on the girl’s cuteness as she stands on stage in a sparkly blue dress. Victory’s angelic voice and talent have left everyone in awe of what she has accomplished at such a young age.
