This is our 6th year of the competition and this year we have again reinvented how to help even more singers worldwide. For 2022, We split the competition into TWO parts - Virtual Worldwide and Live from NYC. Tonight is the Finals Round of the Live from NYC Portion.

We have selected these 14 singers from hundreds of singers who applied from all over the world and then over 160 singers who sang a LIVE Semi-Final/Casting Audition for our International Jury in NYC over the past week.

We hope you enjoy hearing a but about each singer and then hearing their performances! Our jury is watching LIVE in the concert venue and voting on who will be our 2022 Live from NYC Winners!

Immediately after the Concert, we will have the Awards Ceremony - Don't Go Away! Stay and see who are our 2022 Prize Winners!
