Eurovision 2024: Albania’s first rehearsal!
We’re moving to the Balkans, as Albania‘s representative Besa is the next artist to take the stage. She performs the song “Titan”, hoping to prove the odds wrong and win a ticket for the grand final, on Saturday May 11th.
Who is Besa?
Besa Kokëdhima was born in Fier, Albania to mathematician parents, who encouraged her to develop her artistry from a very early age.
This is reflected in her creativity, as BESA’s music is a unique blend of different genres ranging from pop to electronic, R&B to ballads, and everything in between.
Domestically, she’s known for her catchy hooks and exuberant performances that are always full of surprises, suspense and emotion.
She has a strong, passionate fanbase, who admire her as much for her singing as they do for her activism on animal rights, social causes and equality.
The Rehearsal
Besa’s costume is bringing the first pointy shoulders of the day, as part of a blue and black pantsuit with gold detailing. She also has two backing singers, and three female dancers in nude bodysuits who perform a contemporary routine. Projections of more dancers on the LED wall and the cubes give it even more scope and drama, so it feels like they fill the stage. Simple, but really effective.
The way this song goes full drum ‘n’ bass in the final chorus gives it a really epic finish, and the tempo of the dancing is ramped up to match. No sign of pyro on this performance.
