Slovenia: First rehearsal starts
Baku, May 16 (AZERTAC). Eva Boto, who represents Slovenia in the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest, rehearsed for the first time today. She and her five backing vocalists performed on stage in long white dresses, fitting the romantic atmosphere of the ballad Verjamem. The youngest singer in this year`s contest yielded a loud applause from the press and fans in the arena for her powerful vocals!
Eva Boto entered the stage in the Baku Crystal Hall together with five backing vocalists. All of them were wearing long white dresses, and Eva`s had a flower decoration attached. They already left a very vocally strong impression during the first soundcheck of their song Verjamem.
Fitting the romantic atmosphere of the ballad, which was written by Vladimir Graić and Hari Mata Hari, both of which are true Eurovision legends, they used a very elegant choreography: The backing vocalists were just standing in the back of the stage in the beginning of the act, waving their hands. Then, towards the end of the song, they stepped forward together with Eva.
The light scene on stage changed from cool blue in the beginning of the song to a gold-coloured scenery in the end. There were spotlights on Eva Boto and the other vocalists, which went out right after the last note of the song. The background LEDs showed blue waving cloth, changing to golden bubbles in the middle of the act.
Eva Boto is just 16 years old, but managed to ward off competition from 31 other acts to secure her place as Slovenia`s entrant in Baku with the powerful Verjamem.
