The melody is a soprano aria from Giacomo Puccini’s 1918 opera *Gianni Schicchi*. In the story, the character Lauretta sings this heartfelt piece after a heated argument with her father about Rinuccio, the young man she loves. Her father, disapproving of Rinuccio’s family, threatens to separate them—prompting Lauretta’s emotional plea.
It’s a powerful and mature piece—not one you’d expect from a typical nine-year-old. But Victory Brinker is anything but typical.
Since her debut on *America’s Got Talent* Season 16, Victory has captivated audiences. After her first audition, she made history when, for the first time ever, all four judges and the host unanimously awarded a shared Golden Buzzer.
Now, Victory returns for the *AGT* Finals, where one act will be crowned the Season 16 Champion, win \$1 million, and earn the chance to perform at the renowned Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas.
Don’t miss Victory’s stunning version of “O Mio Babbino Caro”—a performance that proves this young star is a true vocal powerhouse. Here’s to Victory!
