28 марта 2017

Original versions of Belarus’ national anthem have been performed today in the studio of the First Channel of the Belarusian radio as part of the first audition stage for a contest. A total of 1,700 applications from vocalists representing all regions, servicemen and cadets, students of secondary and higher educational institutions, professionals and amateurs of various ages have been submitted.

The jury is chaired by poet and author of the Belarusian anthem’s lyrics Vladimir Karizna. It was here, in the House of Radio, that the standard version of the anthem was recorded a while ago.

The final of the large-scale contest will be held in May, on the Day of the National Emblem and Flag of Belarus.
