  • Guida Junior Eurovision 2016
    JUNIOR EUROVISION SONG CONTEST: LA FESTA EUROPEA DELLA MUSICA, A MISURA DI BAMBINO Cos’è lo Junior Eurovision Song Contest? E’ la versione “junior” dell’Eurovision Song Contest, ovvero il più grande concorso musicale d’Europa ed è organizzato, come il festival degli adulti dalla EBU, European Broadcasting Union, l’ente che riunisce le tv e radio pubbliche d’Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Lo Junior Eurovision si rivolge ai bambini e ragazzi dai 9 ai 14 anni (età abbassata da questa edizione, fino al 2015 era 10-16), che abbiano avuto o meno esperienze canore precedenti (regola introdotta nel 2008: prima dovevano essere esordienti assoluti) L’idea è nata nel 2003 prendendo spunto da concorsi per bambini organizzati nei paesi Scandinavi, dove l’Eurovision Song Contest (quello dei grandi) è seguito quasi come una religione. Le prime due edizioni furono infatti ospitate proprio da Danimarca e Norvegia. Curiosamente però, dopo le prime edizioni, i paesi Scandinavi si sono fatti da parte, eccezion fatta per la Svezia. Come funziona lo Junior Eurovision Song Contest? Esattamente come allo Eurovision dei grandi, possiamo dunque dire che sono “le televisioni” a concorrere, ciascuna con un proprio rappresentante. Rispetto alla rassegna degli adulti, ci sono alcune sostanziali differenze: Il cantante che viene selezionato (o il gruppo) deve essere rigorosamente della nazionalità del paese che rappresenta. L’unica eccezione è stata consentita per la Repubblica di San Marino (quest’anno assente). Nella rassegna dei “grandi” non ci sono invece paletti in tal senso ma piena libertà. Le canzoni devono essere eseguite obbligatoriamente in una delle lingue nazionali almeno per il 70% della propria durata, che deve essere compresa fra 2’45” e 3’ e completamente inedite al momento della presentazione ufficiale sul sito della rassegna o della partecipazione al concorso di selezione.
