For the first time, The Voice Kids Croatia, a unique singing competition, is coming to our screens!
After two pre-selection rounds, 84 children were chosen from over a thousand applicants who will use their voice and personality to compete for a performance in The Voice Kids Croatia.
Young singing talents will amaze us weekly, every Saturday, through five auditions, two triathlons, one semi-final, and one final show broadcast live. In a little over a month, on December 21, the first season of the music competition ‘The Voice Kids Croatia’ will begin on HRT. Children between 8 and 14 will show their vocal abilities in the show.
More than 1,000 children between the ages of 8 and 14 applied for the show, and after two pre-selections, 81 of them came to the audition in front of four mentors and the audience in the studios. The youngest is 8 years and 5 months, and the oldest is 14 years old and 7 months.
Accompanied by their parents and relatives, they sought their place in this unique musical story while recording the first five ‘audition’ shows. The role of a mentor is not easy at all, and in this first season, two well-known actors, Ivana Vrdoljak Vanna and Davor Gobac, play these roles. They are joined by singers Mia Dimšić and Marko Tolja in their mentoring chairs.
They discovered that during the audition recording and the composition of their teams (each of which will have twelve child singers), they went through numerous emotional situations. Regardless of the problem, they tried to give each child a part of themselves with advice, support, and a joint song. Everyone agrees that this is a new role full of challenges and responsibilities for their dreams.
I recognized a part of me in them because I wanted to stand on stage and be a singer as a child. For all of us, this beautiful and challenging journey has begun – said Mia Dimšić about how she experienced the first filming
I must admit that it seems to me that it is much easier to work with children than adults. Somehow, there is a much more “light atmosphere,” and the kids are geniuses – Davor Gobac summarized his experience and role as a mentor
I will try to remember and remind myself of my teacher from elementary school, whom I loved very much and who managed to present and teach us in her way what and how we must accept and learn in music, especially and uniquely. The challenge is big – Vanna concluded
The teams are gathered and begin serious preparations for the next stage, the ‘tricolors’, and until then they all have a lot of work, fun and challenges ahead of them with great support from the entire team. The presenters are well-known ‘The Voice’ veterans Iva Šulentić and Ivan Vukušić, and the first show of the auditions is scheduled for December 21 on HTV’s 1st channel.
