French talent show "Prodiges" of France 2

george1234 · Dec 23, 2016

My father having studied for many years in France, has installed satelite TV and is watching most of the day shows from french channels. Yesterday it had a remarkable talent show. Its called "Prodiges" and its focus on kids and teen who take up classical music (instruments, singing, dancing) and i was amazed by how talented and awesome some of these guys and girls were, most very young too, 9-14 age range. The show had 4 critics too, and there are some interviews of them there too. I was literary blown away by many of these performances (and also by the side fact that all were beautiful/handsome) the wide woman is sophrano herself and presenter of the show.

I also twitted the link to the channel to YKajiura with short description :)

This show seems to be yearly, and this year's seems to be the 3rd one. On June 2, 2017 they will hold a big concert with 10000 youngsters chorus, 50 dancers and 100 musicians at Stade Pierre Mauroy http://www.france2.fr/emissions/prodiges/prodiges-le-grand-concert_511679

[Seeing how France has such super amazing musicians even as kids, i bet the reason why they most of the time send fail song in Eurovision is because they dont care about it]

^Lol George :XD:

Will check the links later (not really interested in the show but since you said the contestants are hot im checking them out).

I think France at least tried last year eurovision with J'ai cherche. And N'oubliez Pas from 2015 also wasn't all that bad to me.

Lmao i said last year while in fact this is still 2016 and not 2017 yet. I mean this year's eurovision (sorry to lazy to edit)

Hue, it's funny to see this kid sing Non piu andrai like that when my teacher told me to sing it more manly.
It's extra funny because it's an aria for bass. :XD:

just checked omg theyre underaged (well duh the show's name is prodiges stupid me) but well the girls are really pretty! tje one mamed Louise is so beautiful. the boy named Henri is the most entertaining one to watch, mainly due to his song selection :XD:

and he's the only singer to actually move around the stage

@Kowz yeah :XD:

it's really surprising considering his voice actually has changed but if he wants to sing it that way who are we to judge. it's quite refreshing to see Non piu andrai like that..
