The Eurovision Young Musicians 1992 was the 6th edition of the Eurovision Young Musicians. It consisted of two semi-finals on 3 and 4 June and a final on 9 June 1992, held at Cirque Royal in Brussels, Belgium, and presented by Marie-Françoise Renson. It was organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Radio Télévision Belge Francophone (RTBF). The Belgian National Orchestra conducted by Ronald Zollman accompanied all competing performers.
Musicians representing eighteen countries took part in the competition, with eight of them participating in the televised final. Hungary and Poland made their début, while Greece and Italy decided not to participate.[1]
The winner was violinist Bartłomiej Nizioł representing Poland, with harmonicist Antonio Serrano representing Spain placing second, and cellist Marie Hallynck representing Belgium placing third.[2] It marked the first time any country had won on its first participation in any Eurovision. Technically, it would also mark the only time a broadcaster won a Eurovision event without being a full member of the EBU, as Telewizja Polska (TVP) wouldn't formally join the EBU until the following year.
The contest also marked the last participation of Yugoslavia in the contest. By the time of the contest, United Nations Security Council Resolution 757 (adopted 30 May 1992) had already placed sanctions on FR Yugoslavia,[3] which included a ban on its participation in international contests and cultural events. Therefore, this was the last participation of Yugoslavia at any Eurovision event.
Location
[edit]
Cirque Royale (French) or Koninklijk Circus (Dutch) an entertainment venue in Brussels, Belgium, was the host venue for the 1992 edition of the Eurovision Young Musicians.[4] Conceived by architect Wilhelm Kuhnen, the building has a circular appearance but in fact is constructed as a regular polygon. It can hold 3,500 spectators, and nowadays is primarily used for live music shows.
Format
[edit]Belgian radio and television presenter and actress Marie-Françoise Renson, also known by her pseudonym "Soda",[5] was the host of the 1992 contest.[6] "Soda" was later the Belgian spokesperson at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1995.[7] Stéphane Grappelli, Marc Fosset and Jean-Philippe Viret performed during the interval. The contest was attended by Princess Paola and ended with short montage as a tribute to Frank Naef.[8]
