Eurovision 2022: Tonight the 2nd semifinal- Cyprus competes with “Ela” – Footage from the rehearsals

by

For the second time, after the first on Tuesday, Italy and specifically Turin are hosting tonight the 66th Eurovision Song Contest under the slogan “The sound of beauty”. Millions of viewers from Europe, Australia, Asia and America as well as other corners of the world will watch live tonight the Second Semifinal of this year’s competition which is hosted at the Pala Alpitour.

The main presenters of the evening will be the internationally renowned artist Mika, the great Italian singer Laura Pausini and the Italian radio and television presenter Alessandro Cattelan.

The presenters of the evening: Mika, Laura Pausini and Alessandro Cattelan.

At the beginning of the glamorous show we will watch Alessandro as another agent 007… spy on the dressing rooms of the contestants and generally the whole backstage part of this year’s event just minutes before appearing on stage to meet with his other two colleagues.

The two presenters, Mika and Laura Pausini, have been invited for the break, taking advantage of their specialties, to join forces and perform together the songs ‘Fragile’ by Sting and ‘People have the power’ by Patti Smith. A little later, the country’s representatives will appear on stage at Eurovision 2015 Il Volo. The three young tenors, who after the competition saw their careers soar inside and outside Italy, will perform “Grande amore” (which has been described by many as a lost prize of the competition) in a more… rock mood. .

Eighteen songs will be the competition part of tonight, which opens with the participation of Finland and concludes the Czech Republic. Among them is the participation of Cyprus entitled “Ela” in an interpretation of Andromache, in number 9.

Out of the eighteen, only the top ten countries will be able to win a place in the Final Round. The results, as every year, will be judged by 50% of the public vote via televoting and SMS while the remaining 50% through the ratings of the juries. We remind you at this point that the scores of the committees have already been collected since their members have already voted watching yesterday’s general rehearsal of the Semifinal. The public will be able to vote tonight. In addition to the above seventeen countries, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom will contribute to tonight’s results.
