Updated on 09-01-2021: Headline changed for clarity correcting all previous mentions of Sislena Caparossa. The girl's name in the video is Maria Crăciun and she is singing the song "Caruso" which was originally sung by Italian singer-songwriter Lucio Dalla in 1986. Mentions of Maria Craciun and Sislena Caparossa’s alleged relation to Luciano Pavarotti have been struck (they are not related), links to additional information, and sources were added and dates updated.
Luciano Pavarotti is one of the most well-known opera singers to ever perform on stage. His star power afforded him the ability to become a crossover star in a genre of music usually enjoyed only by hardcore fans. Many of the songs Pavarotti covered and sang are considered great hits until today. Caruso by Italian songwriter and singer Lucio Dalla is one of them.
In this video from 2011, Maria Crăciun shows that musical talent is not bound to any age as she performs a cover of this stunning song for a television performance.
Be sure to reach the end for the full video :-)
At the time of the video, Maria Crăciun was eleven years old. The young singer hails from Romania and has taken part in many different talent shows over the years. This is one of her earliest performances. It's even more impressing if you keep in mind that the young starlet studied and sang a song in Italian, which is not her native language.

Luciano Pavarotti was able to turn Caruso into a cult classic that reached all genres of music lovers. It is quite possible that Maria did the same for a new generation of music lovers. There is no doubt that Pavarotti would be proud of the talent exhibited by this amazing young woman.
Maria Crăciun has since moved on to greater achievements and proven all her fans from her younger days correct. The Romanian star has appeared on many talent and music shows in her home country, including the Romanian version of The Voice. Just in November 2020, she released a new song that can also be viewed on YouTube.
Maria Crăciun performing this timeless Italian classic is beautiful! Are you familiar with the work of Luciano Pavarotti or Lucio Dalla? Tell us what you think and pass this along to your friends and family.
