 Eurovision in Concert 2013: A 5th and very successful edition of
Eurovision in Concert took place Saturday, 13 April 2013 in Melkweg in
Amsterdam, The Netherlands where 25 artists of the Eurovision Song
Contest 2013 performed and with this promoted their song with which they
compete at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 in Malmoe, Sweden May 14,
16 & 18. The Team of Radio International were on location and
conducted interviews with some of the artists within a speed
interviewing session during the sound check on Saturday afternoon. This
and next week Radio International will focus on broadcasting those
interviews. At this point Radio International would like to thank David
Mann from Eurovision Norwich and Bert Ouwerkerk for their hard work in
assisting Eric and JP during the interviews. You can see all the photos from the interview sessions and the Concert itself by clicking here
 Interview with Cesar (Romania 2013): Romania will be represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 by Cesar who sucessfully won the Romanian National Final earlier this year. The song is called "It's my life"
and will be in Semi Final 2 of the Eurovision Song Contest
at Number 17.
Eric met and interviewed Romania's hopeful for this year's Eurovision Song
Contest at Eurovision in Concert 2013 and you can hear it on this
week's edition of Radio International.

 Interview with Valentina Monetta (San Marino 2013): San Marino's hopeful and Ambassador to the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 is no stranger to the Eurovision World as she represented her country San Marino already in 2012 in Baku with "The Social Network Song" which failed by a small margin to qualify for the Grand Final. The song was written by German composer Ralph Siegel and they teamed up again for this year's Eurovision Adventure in Malmö, Sweden. An amazing diversity Valentina shows in performing "Crisalide" which is in Semi Final 2 at Number 2. Clearly, a fans' favourite and one hears only good about it. David Mann met Valentina at the London Eurovision Preview Event on 20 April 2013 and delivered an interview you can hear on this
week's edition of Radio International.
 Interview with Alyona Lanskaya (Belarus 2013): Alyona Lanskaya is representing Belarus at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 with the song "Solayoh".
Belarus has a kind of a "traditiion" in having a national final with a
winning song but then change either the singer or the song. In 2012,
Alyona Lanskaya was the winner of the national final but then Belarus
sent Litesound to Baku to represent Belarus at the Eurovision Song
Contest. Alyona Lanskaya submitted a song again this year called "Rythm of Love"
which won the national final but then the song was replaced by
"Solayoh" which will be competing in Malmö in Semi Final 1 at Number 11.
JP & David met Alyona at Eurovision in Concert 2013 in Amsterdam
for a brief interview. You can also watch the video version of the Interview on our YouTube channel by clicking here
 Interview with Roberto Bellarosa (Belgium 2013): Following in the footsteps of Iris who represented Belgium in 2012, Roberto Bellarosa will perform "Love Kills"
in Malmö at the Eurovision Song Contest in Semi Final 1 at Number 15.
The Belgian national final was done in a radio show in December 2012
where a jury selected out of three "Love Kills". Eric met and
interviewed Roberto at Eurovision in Concert 2013 in Amsterdam.

 Interview with Krista Siegfrids (Finland 2013): Finland at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 will be represented by Krista Siegfrids with the song "Mary me"
in Semi Final 2 at Number 5. Although also having been part of the line
up of Eurovision in Concert 2013, Radio International's Nordic Reporter
Lilian Brunell had the pleasure to have a Tete-a-Tete meeting with
Krista in Stockholm and interviewed the singer. Radio International is
delighted to air this interview on the show this week. You can also watch the video version of the Interview on our YouTube channel by clicking here
 Interview with Aliona Moon & Pasha Parfeny (Moldova 2013):
Pasha represented Moldova at the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 in Baku
with the song "Lautar" reaching Number 11. In his group of backing
vocals was Aliona Moon who this year is the main singer representing
Moldova in Malmö singing the ballade "A mie" (A million). The song was
written by Pasha Parfeny who also plays the piano on stage supporting
Aliona at the Eurovision Song Contest 2013. So we will see him again. JP
and David met the singers in Amsterdam at Eurovision in Concert 2013
for a brief interview. You can also watch the video version of the Interview on our YouTube channel by clicking here
