Hungary’s national final A Dal has now come to a conclusion, after weeks of heats and semi-finals. IN A Dal this year, 30 acts were chosen for the live shows, and as the weeks went by, acts were eliminated until the final, where there were a total of 8 acts.
As in the heats and semi-finals, the results were influenced by both televoters and the jury, which consisted of:
-
Adrienn Zsédenyi Zséda (award-winning singer)
-
Miklós Both (award-winning composer/guitarist/singer)
-
Károly Frenreisz (founder of the legendary LGT and Skorpió, a legend of Hungarian rock music)
-
Ferenc Molnár Caramel (award-winning singer)
How the national final worked is that the jury voted directly after the songs. Each member chose their top 4 songs, and these four acts would move into a second round of voting.
Here are the 8 competitors of the final:
-
Gigi Radics – See It Through
-
Joci Pápai – Origo
-
Gina Kanizsa – Fall Like Rain
-
Soulwave – Kalandor
-
Zävodi + Olivér Berkes – #háttérzaj
