Luxembourg: Auditions completed with undiminished interest!

/0 Comments/in , /by

Luxembourg is returning to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2024 after 30 years. As such, the Duchy’s public broadcaster decision-makers have the difficult task ahead of them of finding the delegate and the song that will represent Luxembourg in Malmö.

Thus, from, Wednesday 22 November onwards, the live auditions for the selection of Luxembourg’s representative at Eurovision 2024 started. These auditions will serve to select the finalists for the national final from which the artist representing the Duchy at the 68th edition of our favourite competition will emerge.

Auditions

RTL‘s decision makers and the international panel that will decide the finalists of the national final to select Luxembourg’s representative in the 68th Eurovision Song Contest are in a “fever”. With 50 artists having passed the pre-selection stage, the jury’s task is certainly demanding and particularly crucial, with excitement in the Duchy running high.

As a reminder, the panel of five Eurovision experts in charge of selecting the finalists for the Luxembourg national final is made up of the following:

Christer Björkmann, who is a Swedish producer and TV presenter as well as a former Eurovision participant (Sweden 1992). Björkmann has also served as Head of Delegation for Sweden, has produced the Contest in 2013 and 2015, where it was hosted in Sweden, as well as the only American Song Contest to date in 2022.

Jan Bors, who has served as Head of Delegation for the Czech Republic.

Cesár Sampson, who has represented Austria at Eurovision in 2018, taking first place in the jury vote. Sampson will also play an active role in the Czech national selection this year, as artistic director and presenter of the national final.

Alex Panayi, who is considered a Eurovision expert. Panagi has represented Cyprus at Eurovision twice, in 1995 and 2000. In recent years, he has acted as Vocal Coach for many Eurovision entries and was also the vocal coach for Helena Paparizou in 2005.

Tali Eshkoli, who is an Israeli television producer. Eshkoli was a producer for Eurovision 2019, has also worked on the Miss Universe 2021 contest held in Israel and has been a jury member for national selections of various countries over the years.

Contestants

Auditions kicked off earlier than usual on Friday morning as Luxembourg’s Eurovision hopefuls took to the stage for the third day running.

Tali, 22, appeared shortly after 10am, confronted with the dual challenges of being the first act on stage and combating jet lag after a flight back from New York. Although singing so early is difficult in itself, without sufficient time to warm up, she was not the only singer to struggle with the early start.  Luxembourgish-Icelandic singer Thorunn said she felt nervous before her performance, despite extensive experience on stage, but the performance went well: “As soon as I’m on stage, it goes away. There are always so many thoughts running through my head when I’m performing.” When asked what she expected from the ESC performance, she added: “I go with the flow. This opportunity came up, so of course I’m happy to take part.”

Jonathan Reichling, one of Friday’s first male acts on stage, brings 10 years of music experience with him, and two songs with which he hoped to impress the ESC jury. A few days ago, he says he was offered a third song, but turned it down. “It was too short notice, I couldn’t do it. But it was such a great song, perfect for the ESC, there just wasn’t enough time to add it, and I didn’t want to do a half-hearted job.” However, he says he had to be convinced to participate in auditions in the first place. “I know a lot of other acts and I wanted to leave it to them.”

Another familiar face to RTL Today readers is Josh Island, fresh from his first album release and a European tour this autumn. “I’m glad the ESC is finally back. I’ve always asked myself why Luxembourg wasn’t part of it. I feel it’s a love-hate kind of thing,” the singer told RTL after his audition on Friday. He said he observed a more distinct closeness within the national and international music community immediately after it was announced that Luxembourg would be returning to the Contest. “The hype abroad is just enormous and I feel honoured to be a part of it.”

One of the youngest candidates to audition is 19-year-old Melvyn Schartz, a student at the Lycée Aline Mayrisch, accompanied by his bandmates with an average age of just 16. Despite the reinforcements, nerves were running high on Friday. “I really felt unwell before the audition, but then it was fine. You can’t help but focus on any mistakes, I feel I could have done better but I’m still satisfied.” This was the school band’s first performance outside of a school environment, and they are hoping it is just the beginning. Melvyn added he was not returning to school after the audition, and his teachers and classmates were all aware of his attempt.

The last audition before the break was a performance by Emilie. This appearance had a more personal resonance for the singer – the last time she appeared on stage before a jury was for the French edition of “The Voice”, back in 2015. The experience was marred by the Paris bombing attacks, and Emilie did not progress to the next stage. Now, after much cajoling from her friends, she is attempting to make a fresh start for the ESC. The act of participation alone is a huge positive, she says, no matter how far she goes.

So, after three days of auditions, the list of candidates who will compete in the national final of Luxembourg will be announced in the next few days. The Duchy’s national final will take place on 27 January and will give the people of Luxembourg the chance to choose the song and artist who will represent them at the 68th Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö in May, 31 years after their last performance in 1993.

Luxembourg: How its representative for Malmö is chosen!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Luxembourg is returning to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2024 after 30 years. As such, the Duchy’s public broadcaster decision-makers have the difficult task ahead of them of finding the delegate and the song that will represent Luxembourg in Malmö.

Thus, the day before yesterday, Wednesday 22 November, the live auditions for the selection of Luxembourg’s representative at Eurovision 2024 started. These auditions will serve to select the finalists for the national final from which the artist representing the Duchy at the 68th edition of our favourite competition will emerge.

The auditions process

It has been more than three decades since Luxembourg, the small Western European duchy with five wins under its belt, last took part in the Eurovision Song Contest. As it goes without saying, the music industry has changed dramatically compared to the early 1990s.

This was the reason why Luxembourg’s public broadcaster, RTL, turned to a panel of five experts who will have the first and last word in choosing the finalists of the national final, as the expectations and interest of the people of the Duchy exceeded all expectations.

In total, 459 artists expressed their interest to participate in the process of selecting the Luxembourg representative in the 68th Eurovision Song Contest. Then there was the pre-selection stage from which RTL‘s decision-makers singled out some 70 songs and 50 artists to be judged by the international panel. All the artists are either Luxembourg citizens, residents or closely linked to the cultural scene of the Duchy.

As a reminder, the panel of five Eurovision experts in charge of selecting the finalists for the Luxembourg national final is made up of the following:

Christer Björkmann, who is a Swedish producer and TV presenter as well as a former Eurovision participant (Sweden 1992). Björkmann has also served as Head of Delegation for Sweden, has produced the Contest in 2013 and 2015, where it was hosted in Sweden, as well as the only American Song Contest to date in 2022.

Jan Bors, who has served as Head of Delegation for the Czech Republic.

Cesár Sampson, who has represented Austria at Eurovision in 2018, taking first place in the jury vote. Sampson will also play an active role in the Czech national selection this year, as artistic director and presenter of the national final.

Alex Panayi, who is considered a Eurovision expert. Panagi has represented Cyprus at Eurovision twice, in 1995 and 2000. In recent years, he has acted as Vocal Coach for many Eurovision entries and was also the vocal coach for Helena Paparizou in 2005.

Contestants’ impressions

The process has caught the attention of the Luxembourg media, as enthusiasm is widespread in the small Western European country for its return to Eurovision after 1993.

“It has without doubt shaken up the industry in Luxembourg,” says Edsun, one of the artists present at the Rockhal, where auditions started yesterday and will run until Friday. “It has given everyone a lot of hope as to what our country can accomplish and where we can take our music. No matter what happens, Eurovision will open doors for our artists and serve as a springboard.”

“The whole experience has been incredibly exciting,” explains Shirley from the Luxembourgish band The Spaceminers, who auditioned Wednesday. “For artists, Eurovision acts as an incomparable creative prompt and the way the process in Luxembourg has been, artists have not only been motivated to write and propose new songs but have also had the opportunity to work with renowned composers.”

Jury’s impressions

Relying on an international jury at this point is crucial in order to ensure impartiality in the selection process.

“The musical industry in Luxembourg is blossoming, but it is small, as is our country,” points out Eric Lehmann, the head of the Luxembourgish delegation to Eurovision.

“By bringing in international juries, none of which are familiar with our music scene or know any of the artists, we ensure that everyone gets the same attention and treatment. Furthermore, these experts bring invaluable knowhow to the table. They know what Eurovision requires. And let’s not forget that the Luxembourgish entry won’t be judged by anyone in Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest, but by the other countries, which is also why this outside view is important to us.”

The five jury members seem acutely aware of what’s at stake and are fully invested in finding the right song for Luxembourg.

“Luxembourg has such an incredible Eurovision heritage, and we’ve waited a very long time for a return – it’s important to work really hard on making it successful,” underlines Tali Eshkoli. “It’s not easy to find the best song, the best singer, and the best performance, but I need all three. We need an entry that can create that magical moment and a unique staging.”

Jan Bors is no less demanding: “I’m looking for perfection, for talent and for a great song of course. I’m looking for a Eurovision winner, not just a song that will qualify for the final. The song and the artist need to be an impeccable match.”

Meanwhile, for Alex Panayi, the most important thing is: “Originality and honesty! And you know it when you hear it. As a vocal coach I’m obviously also very attentive to the voice and what can be done to make it even better. When I listen to each song here, I also imagine what it would sound and look like on the Eurovision scene. There’s a lot to consider.”

How the act will look and sound in context is equally vital for César Sampson: “I’m looking for a song that translates well to Eurovision. It needs to be a hybrid, something that would work as well on television as it would in a stadium. So, a stageable song and a solid performer. I want to find a winner, someone who can fill a stage. You don’t need a specific music genre to succeed in Eurovision, and that’s the beauty of it. But you need a song with a vibrant range, with a ‘beat’ like in theatre.”

“As a group, our jury has very different starting points, but it makes a great dynamic,” concludes Christer Björkman. “For me, it’s important to find a song that can connect contemporary music with Luxembourg’s Eurovision legacy. What I’m looking for is a contemporary hit with a touch of Luxembourg, and I have no doubt that we will find a great selection of songs to fit the criteria for the national selection in January!”

The auditions continue until the beginning of December, when the list of candidates who will compete in the national final in Luxembourg will be announced. The Duchy’s national final will take place on 27 January and will give the people of Luxembourg the chance to choose the song and artist who will represent them at the 68th Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö in May, 31 years after their last performance in 1993.

The auditions

During these auditions, candidates have just ten minutes on stage to convince the jury that they are the right act to represent Luxembourg. Several performers struggled with anxiety, to the point where they had to restart the audition several times.

Speaking about the process, ESC producer and jury member Tali Eshkoli described the excitement as “huge”, while her colleague Christer Björkmann agreed that Luxembourg had waited too long to return to the competition. The jury now has a “big responsibility and a huge challenge” to find the right candidate and get the best possible performance from each artist who takes to the stage during the auditions.

Luxembourg: Alex Panayi will be the president of the jury of the country’s national final for Eurovision 2024!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Fame Story, may not be the method of selecting the Cypriot singer, but we do learn some surprising and pleasant things through its Live Stream from STAR TV.

To be exact, Alex Panayi, who is one of the music teachers of the academy, revealed that he will be the president of the jury panel of Luxembourg’s national final for Eurovision 2024, “Luxembourg Decides”.

Alex Panayi, besides having represented his country two time in the Eurovision Song Contest (1995 and 2000), hw is now one of thw most important musicians in Greece and Cyprus, vocal coach, composer, lyricist, music producer, as well as a singer!

He has also been to Eurovision many times, as a vocal coach for the different delegations, but he has also been a juror for a lot of national finals, throughout Europe.

It would not be considered an exaggeration if we said that in everything that he dealt with in the music industry in our country (and of course in Cyprus) there is nothing that he has not attempted or that his opinion and experience has not been trusted.

Let’s remember his song for Eurovision 1995, “Sti Fotia”, which ended up in 9th place:

We wish Alex Panayi the best in his new duties, which we are sure he will handle successfully!

Luxembourg: The preselection’s final line-up will be decided by an international expert jury!

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Luxembourg’s return to Eurovision after thirty years of absence is expected to be epic. A national selection will be held in order to choose the next Luxembourgish act and the preparations are on fire. The preselection was open to

  • either singers who already had a maximum of three songs to submit
  • or singers who did not have a song but they would like to represent Luxembourg in Eurovision and would therefore be contacted via RTL with a team of songwriters.

Following the closing of the submission window for the first category and the finish of the “castings” stage for the second category, RTL underwent an evaluation process, coming down to a shortlist of around 70 songs and 50 artists.

Now, it is up to an international jury to decide the final line-up.

The international jury

The choice of an international jury was made in order to achieve the greatest possible neutrality in a small country as Luxembourg. Hence, this jury consists of the following five members, strongly associated with Eurovision:

Christer Björkmann, who is a Swedish producer and TV host as well as a former Eurovision participant(Sweden 1992). Björkmann has also served as a Head of Delegation for Sweden, has produced the 2013 and 2016 editions of Eurovision Song Contest held in Sweden and the only and only to date American Song Contest.

Jan Bors, who has served as a Head of Delegation for Czechia.

Cesár Sampson, who has represented Austria in the 2018 edition of Εurovision and was crowned as the jury winner. Sampson will also play an active role in the Czech preselection this year, serving as an artistic director and the presenter of the national final.

Alex Panayi, who is also considered as a Eurovision expertise. Panayi has represented Cyprus in Eurovision on two occasions, in 1995 and 2000. In recent years, he has served as a vocal coach for several Eurovision participants and was also the backing vocalist of the 2005 winner, Helena Paparizou.

Tali Eshkoli, which an Israeli television producer. Eshkoli has been the producer of the 2019 edition of Eurovision, has also contributed to the 2021 edition of the Miss Universe competition held in Israel and has served as a jury member in various Eurovision preselections.

What’s next for the Luxembourgish preselection?

The names of the finalists who have managed to convince the jury will be revealed at the beginning of December.

The Luxembourgish national final will take place on January 27, 2024 in a major live show broadcast on RTL Télé. Viewers will be able to vote for the person they want to see represent Luxembourg at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö.

The former Eurovision powerhouse will return to the contest after thirty years of absence. During its almost fourty years participation, Luxembourg was crowned as the winner five times in total.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

One of the most important events of the year, is undoubtedly the return of Luxembourg to the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, after 30 years of abscence!

The country’s public broadcaster, RTL, has announced that both artist and song will be selected through a national final, which is set to take place on January 27. Back in July, RTL had commenced the live auditions of artists who are interested in participating in the national final, without having a song in their possession.

The application platform was then opened for artists who already have a song or composers who wanted to submit their songs, which was open until yesterday, October 1 at midnight.

A while ago RTL announced the number of applications it received and it is more than impressive. In detail, the broadcaster received 459 song applications for the national final! RTL thanked everyone who submitted their suggestions and emphasized that the songs amount to around 23 hours of music.

What we know so far about the Luxembourgish selection is that Josh Island submitted a song and some information on the 100 singers that took part in the auditions.

Luxembourg looks reaady for a spectacular comeback. Do not forget that it is one of the most successful countries, with five victories in its history. A title we think they want to defend!

Luxembourg: First impressions from the auditions!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

For the participation of Luxembourg at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest, the first auditions took place with more than 100 people taking part at Rockhal in July.

A performance on the big stage of the Eurovision Song Contest lasts three minutes, and it will have a great repercussion on the lucky candidate. After a hiatus of 30 years, Luxembourg is back and therefore looking for the candidate or group that will represent the country in the 68th contest in Sweden. Therefore, candidates can apply for three categories:

  1. Singers and bands who can present a complete song.
  2. Candidates who don’t have their own song yet.
  3. Composers and songwriters who will collaborate with someone from category 2 to compose a new song.

Doropshi was the first audition in July of all the people who submitted their candidacy in the second category. Over two days, the most diverse candidates found their way to Rockhal.

At 63, Pierre Urbing was not only the oldest candidate, but also the first to sing.

“Basically, it was always my desire to make music when I was young, but then the opportunity wasn’t as available as it is today. And now we said, try to do something for Luxembourg”.

Melina Frisch is only 16 years old, so she was one of the youngest who dared to stand before the jury.

“I think even younger people should be asked to show that they can do something from a young age. Not just adults. I’m just doing it for fun and who knows what will come out of this”

She was accompanied by Christiane Hoffmann, a friend of the family. For her, the dream of the big stage had already come true in 1991, when she was able to represent Luxembourg as a pianist in Italy.

“It was a bit stressful because we couldn’t see much of Rome. So we had to go to Cinecittà every other day to rehearse. And it was very nice, because you got to know the other countries too. At that time there were not many. It was a great experience.”

Before audition candidates even take the stage, they would first have to convince the jury. The panel consisted of RTL.lu manager Sandra Biintz, RTL cultural program manager Jenny Fischbach, Eurovision coordinator Eric Lehmann, sound expert Jules Serrig, head of Radio Dave Gloesener and radio animator Samuel Steen.

“I would say that 50 percent of the candidates who came forward sing well. We have also made some suggestions for improvement. And I think the crowd will continue to improve until January when the decision is made and I think we’ll keep 40 to 50 people,” says jury member Eric Lehmann after the first day of casting.

Most performances were a cappella. Mainly in English and French, but partly in Luxembourgish, German, Portuguese and even Serbian. Some solo performers were accompanied by guitar or piano or brought a musical accompaniment. As a result, most candidates had chosen a slower song. The jury would like more up-tempo songs, but will take this into consideration for improvement next year and possibly allow background music during auditions.

The best singers will later compete with those candidates who are already more established in the music industry and have their own songs in their repertoire. The finalists will then compete against each other in a big televised show at the Rockhal on January 27, and the winner will represent Luxembourg at the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö in May 2024.

Luxembourg: The public will get to vote in the new national final!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Dave Gloesener, head of the Eurovision project at RTL, said in an interview that the country’s TV audience will “have a say” in Luxembourg’s new national final, which returns after a 30-year absence at Eurovision 2024.

The show, which will take place on 27 January 2024 and mark Luxembourg’s return to Eurovision, will give viewers the opportunity to participate in the selection process of the artist who will represent the Grand Duchy in Malmö, Sweden.

Speaking to Delano, Gloesener says the decision to hold a national final in Luxembourg was made “without thought”:

“We have been away for a long time and it is important to bring Luxembourg to Eurovision in the right way.”

He also confirmed that the show, which will be held at the Rockhal in Esch-sur-Alzette, will be broadcast live online with commentary in three different languages.

Eric Lehmann, Eurovision project coordinator at RTL, believes that hosting the show is an opportunity for Luxembourg to be seen on the international stage – and the benefits are already being felt:

“Our return to Eurovision has received very positive feedback worldwide and there is also incredible interest in our national selection. The reactions have been extremely encouraging, it’s a source of great pride.”

Luxembourg’s return will not be temporary. After 30 years away from the show and 40 years since the nation last won the contest, Gloesener believes it’s time for Luxembourg to leave its mark on Eurovision again:

“We aim to do very well in the Eurovision Song Contest next year and turn a new page in Eurovision for Luxembourg. We are here to stay.”
