The winners have been chosen! |
After an intensive session, the main jury has chosen the winning songs of the current rounds of the Song Contest "Dein Song für EINE WELT!" (Your song for ONE WORLD). The album places, special and recognition prizes were chosen, as well as a top 5 that is still in the running for the title of EINE WELT song (ONE WORLD song): "Minutes to Midnight" by Anna Pilar from Berlin, "Die weiße Taube fliegt weg" by Ben B from Hamburg, "Qui s’élèvera?" by Hari Sue from Freiburg, „In A Dream“ by Malaika Wainwright, "Ohne ein Zuhause" by Emmylou & Lone from Freiburg.
It was not an easy decision for the jury, because the songs were all convincing in their diversity and strength of content. The jurors were impressed both by the topics dealt with in the songs and by the depth of the musical examination of them.
The winners of the fourth round of the Song Contest have now been announced. The jury awarded 20 places for the EINE WELT album (ONE WORLD album) Vol. 4, which will be released in spring 2022. They also nominated five songs that will compete for the title of EINE WELT song in a final decision on 3 December 2021.
