Italian flag by Sharon Cummings

Italy is one of the countries débuting at this year’s Junior Eurovision, and we’re happy that they’ll be there in Malta in 15 November.

As you may already know, Italian broadcaster RAI revealed they’d used an internal selection to decide their entry for Malta.  We can now hear this entry.  It’s called ‘Tu primo grande amore’, or ‘Your first great love’, and is performed by Vincenzo Cantiello.  He’s 13 and comes from Sant’Arpino in the Campania region of southern Italy.

See what you think of this classy, almost spine-tingling ballad, sung mainly in Italian with parts in English.
