Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song contest

The Eurovision Song Contest 1961 was the 6th edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest. Once again, the contest was held in the French seaside city of Cannes, having also hosted the Шаблон:Escyr. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Шаблон:Lang (RTF), the contest was again held at the Шаблон:Lang on Saturday 18 March 1961, becoming the first contest to take place on a Saturday evening, a tradition that has continued ever since (with the exception of 1962). The show was directed by Шаблон:Ill and again hosted by Jacqueline Joubert, who had also hosted in 1959.[1]

Sixteen countries participated in the contest - three more than in the previous edition; Шаблон:Esccnty, Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty all competed for the first time this year.

The winner was Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Шаблон:Lang", performed by Jean-Claude Pascal, written by Maurice Vidalin, and composed by Jacques Datin, with the Шаблон:Esccnty finishing in second place for the third consecutive year.

Шаблон:Lang, Cannes – host venue of the 1961 contest

The event took place in Cannes, France, following the nation's victory at the 1960 edition with the song "Шаблон:Lang", performed by Jacqueline Boyer. The selected venue was the Шаблон:Lang, built in 1949 to host the Cannes Film Festival and located on the Шаблон:Lang along the shore of the Mediterranean Sea.[2][3] Due to the growth in the film festival a new building bearing the same name was opened in 1982, with the original building renamed as the Шаблон:Lang and subsequently demolished in 1988.[4] It also hosted the Шаблон:Escyr edition of the Eurovision Song Contest.[2]

Participating countries

Шаблон:Further Interest in the competition began to grow across Europe as three new countries participated for the first time: Finland, Spain, and Yugoslavia.[5]

Both Шаблон:Esccnty's Bob Benny and Шаблон:Esccnty's Nora Brockstedt made their second appearances at the contest; Benny had previously represented Belgium in the Шаблон:Escyr with the song "Шаблон:Lang", while Brockstedt represented Norway for the second consecutive year, having performed "Шаблон:Lang" the previous year.[2]

Production

Шаблон:Ill directed the show, the director of photography was Шаблон:Ill.[9] Roger Valat served as technical director.[10] Six TV cameras were used, including one showing the Mediterranean sea and the outside of the venue during the first seconds of the show.[9]

Like in 1959, the stage was designed by Gérard Dubois.[1][11] It was notably larger than in previous years and featured a central staircase decorated with flowers, leading up to a terrace flanked by trees, so that the entire stage gave the impression of a Mediterranean garden.[9] Dubois first made a scale model of the stage in Paris, then went to Cannes and chose the trees together with André Racot, head of the Cannes municipal gardens,[12] paying attention that the trees were not too dark-colored for the TV cameras.[9] The flower pots were then added on the day of the show so that they were fresh and unaltered by unsuitable temperature and light conditions.[9]

Format

Initial plans foresaw that the greenroom was part of the stage so that artists stayed on the stage after having performed.[9] However, this idea finally was not realised in the live show.[13]

The draw to determine the running order took place on 16 March 1961 at the Carlton Hotel in Cannes.[10] It was presented by Jacqueline Joubert, assisted by two children aged six and four.[10]

Rehearsals started on 16 March 1961.[10]

Contest overview

The contest was held on 18 March 1961, beginning at 22:00 CET (21:00 UTC) and lasted 1 hour and 30 minutes.[2][14] The event was hosted by French television presenter Jacqueline Joubert, who had previously presented the previous contest held in France in 1959.[2][5]

The interval act was a ballet performance under the title "Rendez-vous à Cannes" with music written by Raymond Lefèvre and performed by Tessa Beaumont and Шаблон:Ill.[9][15]

The winner was Шаблон:Esccnty represented by the song "Шаблон:Lang", composed by Jacques Datin, written by Шаблон:Ill and performed by Jean-Claude Pascal.[16] This was the first of an eventual five contest victories that Luxembourg would go on to achieve.[17]

After the show, a supper for the participating delegations was held at the Salon des Ambassadeurs of the Шаблон:Ill.[18]

Spokespersons

Each country nominated a spokesperson who was responsible for announcing the votes for their respective country via telephone. Known spokespersons at the 1961 contest are listed below.

Detailed voting results

Each country had 10 jury members who each awarded 1 point to their favourite song. The jury members were television viewers representing the public.[1]

It is noticeable that during the voting, Luxembourg gave the UK eight points, and Norway also gave Denmark eight points. It was the largest number of points given to a country by a single jury since 1958, when Denmark provided France with nine points. Such a high number of points obtained by a country would not be achieved until 1970, when Ireland would receive nine points from Belgium.[5]

Broadcasts

Each participating broadcaster was required to relay the contest via its networks. Non-participating EBU member broadcasters were also able to relay the contest as "passive participants". Broadcasters were able to send commentators to provide coverage of the contest in their own native language and to relay information about the artists and songs to their television viewers.[25] The local press reported a total number of 14 commentators for the contest, and a total of 16 countries broadcasting the event.[9][18]

No official accounts of the viewing figures are known to exist. An estimate given in the French press ahead of the contest was 40 million viewers all over Europe.[9]

Known details on the broadcasts in each country, including the specific broadcasting stations and commentators are shown in the tables below.
