The Voice Senior is a Polish reality talent show premiered on December 7, 2019, on the TVP 2 television network. The Voice Senior is part of the international syndication The Voice and The Voice Kids based on the reality singing competition launched in the Netherlands as The Voice of Holland, created by Dutch television producer John de Mol. However, participation is only open for candidates of more than 60 years old.[1]

Format

The show consists of four different phases: production auditions, blind auditions, the "sing-off", and the live finale. The production auditions are not filmed, and this is where contestants are selected to go to the blind auditions.

Blind auditions

The contestants sing during the blind audition while the chairs of the coaches are turned over. Each candidate has the chance to sing a song of their choice for about a minute and a half. Coaches can only choose the contestant on the basis of musicality and voice by pressing the button, causing their chairs to turn around and facing the artist. If two or more coaches want the same artist, the artist chooses which coach they want to continue in the program. The blind auditions end when all teams are full.

Semifinal

Each coach pairs two or three singers from his team who have to compete against each other by performing a song chosen by the coach. After the performances, the coach chooses one contestant from each pair to advance to the next round.

Live finale

The remaining contestants from each team will be in the final. The live finale will be broadcast live on TVP 2. The contestants are mentored by their coach and choose a song that they want to sing in the final. The coach then decides one act to remain; the other act will then be eliminated. The final winner is chosen by the public at home by televoting.

Coaches

On 19 July 2019, it was announced that Marek Piekarczyk, Urszula Dudziak, Alicja Majewska and Andrzej Piaseczny would become coaches for the show's first season, with Tomasz Kammel joining Marta Manowska to be hosts.[2] On 17 August 2020, it was announced that Majewska and Piaseczny would return as coaches for season two, while new coaches Izabela Trojanowska and Witold Paszt would replace Piekarczyk and Dudziak.[3] On 18 August 2021, it was announced that Majewska and Paszt would return as coaches alongside new coaches Piotr Cugowski and Maryla Rodowicz for the third season.[4] On 16 August 2022, it was announced that Rodowicz and Cugowski would return as coaches, while Paszt and Majewska would be replaced by Alicja Węgorzewska and Tomasz Szczepanik in season four.[5] On 15 August 15, 2023, it was confirmed that Rodowicz, Szczepanik and Węgorzewska would return as coaches in the fifth season, joined by Halina Frąckowiak, who replaced Cugowski.[6]
