song contest. the entry has a cheerful melody but it's subtext soon serious. the song has a strong message of me too and i thought about something funky that can sound. like a cycle of. abuse like ouch like. like the fence. now and then it goes over and over and over again the second very happy vibe song back to it has a strong message with between the lines. the performers introduce themselves to fans and journalists at the opening ceremony on sunday many have been rehearsing in lisbon for more than a week forty three countries are vying for the title. one performer has competed before alexander reebok from norway.

he won in two thousand and nine and he's among the favorites to win again this year . get down. but you can't plan a euro vision when. that. young fedderson is well aware of this piece provided the commentary for german viewers for the past twenty five years i guess by talking was a winning song has to contain momentum through the performance itself that means that the cygnus have to express to the audience that they really want to be there they can't just go through the motions. as you do. when. the metal band does from hungary are giving it their all. i. denmark's rescue scene has a viking inspired look. here

rio from georgia will present public choral music. my. neighbor from a stoney is depending on only one voice purse. oh oh oh oh oh oh oh she's a trained opera singer. oh i sing from my soul i sing from my heart and i hope this message about the forests of love will reach the people's hearts i hear your voice and she germany's me also hopes to reach the audiences hearts his song is a tribute to his late father her. mom.

is. another favorite this year is france the song by the duo miss year is about a girl born on a boat full of refugees it's based on a true story. it was a really meaningful and moving story we really learned it on twitter and we wanted to make a song about it to make people feel the same thing that we had. told i. will gary is most successful musicians have combined forces for the event they think that's just the right approach for your vision and for your. i mean as you can see we're so completely different and we celebrate and just imagine

a world where people truly celebrated the differences between to come in. and internationally successful model and actor from the czech republic is interested in doing one thing of providing good entertainment to all the fans of your ovation as the conflict. let's catch up with what's happening around europe in today's express was it being across the continent from britain to belgium but we start off in berlin with a rather special called. a gala event was held at berlin's concert house on friday to mark the twenty fifth anniversary of the founding of slovakia. the country has been a member of the european union since two thousand and four. was it because of akio is very rich musically and we like to show off our artists so i'm delighted to present off the philharmonic orchestra to a burning audience and i want to tell you. this little rock philharmonic was

conducted by rusty sloughs during. one of the evening's highlights was a performance by violin virtuoso dolly barker. slovakia was founded in one nine hundred ninety three after the peaceful dissolution of the federal state of czechoslovakia. the dba diamond museum opened its doors in unclipped this weekend this is can learn about the history of the diamond and silversmithing traits which of pride than the belgian port city since the fifteenth century. the museum features exhibits on both traditional and modern methods of processing diamonds and silver also on display is a diamond encrusted necklace in the shape of a snake from eight hundred sixty the museum open to the general public on monday. hundreds of jeffers cyclists took

a spin around london on saturday the annual tweed run is a twelve kilometer track that takes in key landmarks and allows stops for team a picnic or a pint since its two thousand and nine give you the tweed run has grown into an international event numerous awards are handed out including prizes for best dressed best vintage bicycle and best moustache. well they stay on the topic of cycling but you won't catch on next bike riding in tweed or indeed staying on the cycle path twenty two year old fabio vigneault is a professional street trials bike and you tube stuff you regularly upload. his stunning stunts the video platform where he has more than one million subscribers it's no wonder he basically does pacu on a bike jumping over walls hopping from roof to roof and performing gravity defying stunts as part of this week's series hungry for sports we paid him

a visit and the austrian capital vienna. fabio gets his kicks from exhilarating downhill rights and somewhat unusual routes as residents of cities across europe in this case vienna can testify the bike you write is more maneuverable than a mountain bike making it ideal for stunts. with them try back to come on a trail by can do almost everything back flips jumps whatever. you have complete creative license. that's what i find fascinating about travel by the freedom to do what you want and there are no real stipulations like there are in other sports some of. the video often practices his stance on this square in his hometown of austria he's been honing his skills practically every day since

twenty ten. the biggest and most dangerous challenges in his repertoire are back and front flips. crashes and force are inevitable in the sport. some tricks take years of practice to perfect. twenty yards for advice. when i want to overcome a new challenge first i think over what i need to accomplish the trick. what position do i need to put my body. how i move around on the bike. so when i go through the moves in my head and then all i can do is practice practice practice. and. also

upload stunts. do you choose where more than a million subscribers get updates on his thrills and spills. he also embeds the videos of his adventures in stories his breakneck bike tour of vienna for example is his way of getting to the world volleyball championships as quickly as possible and when he's in the saddle to result definitely faster than for. a gulp of a client gets an emotional reaction from people and a more intense feeling than if you just did a series of tricks. in writing down the dollar mights he moved up to a mountain bike hitting speeds of up to sixty kilometers per hour he found his down impossibly rocky landscape's in northern italy for him a welcome break from trial bike for truly perilous writes like this you need more than skills and physical fitness.

i'm the kind of guy who always looks forward to how i'll feel afterwards when i've completed a trickle line that's a big motivation. comes along but sometimes i'll need thirty forty or fifty minutes preparation time for mental preparation for mental strength is an extremely important factor. so far the only injuries he's picked up are a few bumps and scratches and sprained and a broken finger the twenty two year old is considered a rising star in the biking world and thanks to be sponsors he can now focus one hundred percent on his sporting ambitions. i always want to push myself further and try out new things that nobody has done yet. so i provide my own motivation. to

get. victimise ambition is to do every project in every video better and ultimately to have fun in the process and one way or the other to make a splash. next up we travel to by the lights the southern german town is mostly known for the annual festival which celebrates the music of composer wagner even outside of the festival season the margrave feel oprah house is a big attraction in twenty twelve it was added to the unesco world heritage list but then it closed for renovations and though it was built within four years back in the eighteenth century it's taken six years to get it back into shape. the curtain is up but the mcgreevey opera house. by rights has a rich history of musical and trickle innovation. the building is one of the most

outstanding surviving examples of baroque theater architecture in europe. it was already considered one of the most beautiful theaters when it opened in seventeen forty eight it was commissioned by the wilhelmina of prussia the older sister of frederick the great. her a was. to celebrate its reopening with a to outer academy outpost everything is staging real him in his life in the opera artists are saying. this that he should mean i'm lucky that i can sing a number of arias and that they're all very different sometimes they're very difficult sometimes slow or deep. and that's

a real challenge as. hell for the one. zero zero. the german soprano anya celia is cast in the lead role of villa mina the founding patrons influential role she says can still be traced inside the opera house. just that and of course the distance is hard for us to imagine today monday so got me first and kind of sad to get there were no chairs and as the theatres managing director she will use this staircase and these us how is this that even if there was not ins down below zero when those poor people that's this that's highly unusual that's get really not seen anywhere else in the world itself and it's to us . so the architecture is not just noteworthy as a theater space it also reflects something personal both about the phone. her and oppression court all that is in evidence here it's often a high might be case it's. by roy tows it's eighteenth century rise to the status of a german cultural center to the margravine ville hermia she was clever creative and

a great patron of the arts and had an artistic talent herself. and of course a concern that it was unusual at the time to meet a woman who was both when it you created and a great artist even in the aristocracy. she wrote plays operas composed music performed and on top of all that she also ran this opera house that's intended. in these in halls. domina of prussia left a lasting legacy by commissioning this magnificent theatre which is now almost three centuries old. to the very end authorities have pumped almost thirty million euros into the renovation of this world heritage site a veritable temple of art and music. now plenty of you will be well aware the fifa world cup is kicking off in june but

you may not have heard about another world championship taking place later this year the international so many a finals a twenty five year old austrian will be representing germany we met sebastian who saw it in hamburg to find out what goes into being a professional wine expert. sebastian who sold was recently nominated the best young so many a in germany he works at a five star in the wheat say jacobo hotel in hamburg. to get the language the right side of the spines evaluate three aspects of wine a parent's nose and taste this wine has a very intensive noles even smells of gasoline this is often a sign of a mature recently but what's interesting is that this is an australian response it has a very aromatic nose yet it's also very elegant on the palate. who sold works closely with michelin starred chef thomas martin to find the right wine for the food he

trained as a some way in london and is also a connoisseur of cheese and cigars. this argument obviously via some say we only drink wine but there's a bit more to it you know when i was in training i read more books than i drank wine it was a tough start. but it was worth it germany's best so many under thirty five is not an accolade to be sneezed at so many years went by its got its roots and also into the grooves of millions can work all over the world and the distinction can bring more fane. showing that you're accomplished presentable and but in the end it's all about how you deal with customers they decide whether you're good or bad that's beautiful this goes extremely well with our sea trout something both light and elegant is needed. as a release is out of this is what i find so appealing is that you never stop learning there's always more to discover every year is different and every year you're basically starting all over again. i also value the close interaction you

get with the customers i know joy giving them advice on wine and even aperitifs and d.j.'s defs you play a crucial role in providing guests with a wonderful evening and that in turn gives me a lot of pleasure you know it's going to be. the best wines are stored in the historical wine cellar it was here was russia this is a foreign one but maybe a bottle from napa valley two thousand and eight schaefer vineyards hillside select cabin a something you know this is a four star wine very special but it was the one of the best the most expensive one is not necessarily the best we have many wines in the cellar that i just discovered at half the price. blue salt will represent germany at the international young so many a finals in mexico in september. now once a week audience has the chance to decide where we send our euro max crew and

exercise or series we take a closer look at your favorite travel destinations. this time edwin butts from the venezuelan capital caracas got in touch he'd love to visit athens and says that to him it's the heart of western civilization but there's much more to it than antiquities and the acropolis the greek capital also has a growing street art scene that is helping attract younger tourists to one of the world's oldest cities. the acropolis is athens is best known landmark but the greek capital has many other ancient treasures such as this to what actually knows. its part of the ancient or gora the former central public square in the city. tourist guide and historian george congo's knows the best spots in town is tipped for breakfast as the balcony at. this view never loses its

appeal and it's a pleasure for me to show visitors my favorite places so that i can pass on the thrill i feel when i see the acropolis and i will know it was a good thing with more than doubled in a group with. this tourist take in both old and new attractions to show visitors how athens is reinventing itself. the plaka is one of athens is oldest neighborhoods with its narrow winding streets it invites visitors to explore and linger. it's also home to the courageous monument of lucic practice in tribute to a generous patron of the arts. monument we see back there is dedicated to a very rich athenian more than two thousand years ago the athenians developed a tax system under which people like him had to pay taxes but the middle and lower classes did not. since the start of the current

economic crisis the country's street art scene has grown there are examples throughout the capital. stuff in other than a. fantastic street art movement has developed in athens over the past years. it's one of the fastest growing scenes in europe. and it isn't just younger visitors who appreciate. the first time i go to greece and i discover. only knows about the real. things but i discover a city changing. the streets lots of graffiti and i just was surprised i like it so it's a good surprise. the next stop on our tour is the ancient arch of history and it combines greek and roman architecture.

was the one with the bomb then we're here we see the beautiful triumphal arch it's made completely of today the model fenians dedicated it to their benefactor the emperor who adored this city but also. a little tourist train can take you to most of athens the sights for instance to the parliament building on syntagma square. you can watch the changing of the guard there it takes place every hour on the hour. the central market in the heart of the city is also well worth visiting. what is in that home i go to the market almost every day you can enjoy such a wide variety of sense and colors and you can get products from all over the world but especially things produced here in greece. in panama city. even top chefs trust the quality of the produce here and come by to pick up ingredients for

their menus head on theory owner in chef alexandra's puts a modern spin on traditional dishes today he's making a swede with. the restaurant is in the corona close neighborhood and it's one numerous awards. at night the sights of athens are greatly lit her name is still an insider tip unlike the overcrowded bars around minister rocky square. it's on a side street but offers a breath taking you of the acropolis. after what is it what i like most of all about the nightlife of athens is this mix of the ancient and the modern it's not just the view that makes this place special it's that feeling of knowing that the ancient fenians also sat here and drank their wine and talked to each other just as we do after this in this line of i want to go around the corner of. the greek capital is

a vibrant historical city still making history every day. so almost time to say goodbye but as always we want you to get in touch with us and share your views the cannes film festival is just around the corner so this week we want to know how you like to enjoy films do you have a favorite cinema or do you prefer watching or flicks at home on the sofa take part in our survey of d.w. dot com slash lifestyle and you'll be in with a chance of winning an exclusive euro max wristwatch. that's all for today but i hope you join us again tomorrow i'll buy from now. on the next edition of your max the legendary swedish pop band have announced. and they're bringing recorded two new songs but the full text no longer wants before. instead will be represented in future by virtue of. we find out what to expect in
