The Voice van Vlaanderen

The Voice van Vlaanderen is the Flemish version of the international reality television franchise The Voice. Aspiring singers, from solo artists to duets, audition for a panel of four coaches who are established musicians themselves. The coaches judge the singers purely on their vocal ability during the blind auditions, where they cannot see the performer. If a coach is impressed, they press a button to turn their chair, signifying their desire to mentor that artist. Artists can then be chosen by one or more coaches. The competition continues through various stages, including battle rounds and live shows, culminating in the crowning of The Voice of Flanders.
