Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Good article Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song contest The Eurovision Song Contest 1958 was the third edition of the annual Eurovision Song Contest. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Шаблон:Lang (NTS), the contest, originally known as the Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang-en[1]) was held on Wednesday 12 March 1958 at the AVRO Studios in Hilversum, the Netherlands and hosted by Dutch television presenter Hannie Lips. This marked the first time that the contest was hosted in the country of the preceding year's winner, a tradition that has been continued ever since (with some exceptions).
Ten countries participated, equalling the number which took part the previous year; Шаблон:Esccnty made its first appearance in the contest, while the Шаблон:Esccnty decided not to participate.
The winner of the contest was Шаблон:Esccnty, represented by the song "Шаблон:Lang" performed by André Claveau, marking the first of five eventual wins for the country. Another entry however made a greater impact following the contest; the Italian entry, "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Domenico Modugno which had placed third, became a worldwide hit for Modugno, winning two Grammy Awards in 1959 and becoming a chart success in several countries.
Location
The 1958 contest took place in Hilversum, the Netherlands. The selected venue was the AVRO Studios, which served at the time as the main radio and television broadcasting facilities of the Dutch broadcaster AVRO.[2][3] Often called "media city", Hilversum is the principal centre for radio and television broadcasting in the Netherlands and is the location of several of the organisations that make up the Шаблон:Lang (NPO) public broadcasting organisation.[4][5]
Although they had won in 1957, the Netherlands' did not receive automatic rights to host the contest, as the convention in place at the time specified that each broadcaster would stage the event in turns.[6] The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) had been the first choice to stage the event in the United Kingdom, but gave up the rights after failing to reach agreement with artistic unions.[7] Subsequently the Dutch broadcaster, Шаблон:Lang (NTS), only received the rights to host the event after other broadcasters declined the opportunity.[6][8][9] This established the tradition that the previous year's winner would host it the following year.[10][11]
Participating countries
Шаблон:Further Ten countries participated in the 1958 contest, the same number as had featured in the previous year's event. Sweden entered the contest for the first time, while the United Kingdom decided not to compete, despite having originally intended to participate and being listed as one of the participating countries in the original rules dated November 1957.[2][7][10]
Several of the participants had previously competed in the contest. Switzerland's Lys Assia and the Netherlands' Corry Brokken had both represented their countries in 1956 and 1957, and were both former winners; Assia was the first winner of the contest in 1956 with the song "Шаблон:Lang", and had also performed Switzerland's other entry in that contest "Шаблон:Lang", while Brokken had performed "Шаблон:Lang" in the 1956 contest, one of the Netherlands' two entries, and was then the winner the following year with the song "Шаблон:Lang".[12][13] Belgium's Fud Leclerc had also competed in the 1956 contest, performing "Шаблон:Lang", one of his country's two entries, and Margot Hielscher returned to perform for Germany for a second year in a row, having competed in 1957 with "Шаблон:Lang".[12][13]

Format
The contest was organised and broadcast by NTS, with Piet te Nuyl Jr. serving as producer, Gijs Stappershoef serving as director, and Dolf van der Linden serving as musical director, leading the Шаблон:Lang during the event.[17][18][19] Each country was allowed to nominate their own musical director to lead the orchestra during the performance of their country's entry, with the host musical director also conducting for those countries which did not nominate their own conductor.[15]
Held in one of the studios of the AVRO broadcasting complex, the hall contained a small stage for the singers, with the orchestra situated stage right. The rear of the performance area had interchangeable backgrounds for each song to add context to each song's lyrics, which could also be removed to show the scoreboard during the voting sequence, and the venue was decorated with thousands of tulips.[2][20]
No significant changes to the rules of the 1957 contest were implemented; each country, participating through one EBU member broadcaster, was represented by one song performed by up to two people on stage.[2][10] Due to several entries having violated the duration limit in the previous event, the maximum song limit of 3 minutes and 30 seconds was more stringently enforced for this year's entries.[6] The voting system was the same as the one used the previous year; the results were determined through jury voting, with each country's jury containing ten individuals who each gave one vote to their favourite song, with no abstentions allowed and with jurors unable to vote for their own country.[17]
Contest overview
The contest was held on 12 March 1958, beginning at 21:00 CET (20:00 UTC) with an approximate duration of 1 hour and 10 minutes.[21][22] The contest was hosted by Dutch presenter Hannie Lips.[2][15] A performance by the Шаблон:Lang featured as the interval act between the final competing performance and the commencement of the voting results, which included a rendition of Шаблон:Lang.[23] In addition, after the first five songs, the Metropole Orkest performed the "Wedding Dance" from the Symphonic Suite "Hasseneh" by Шаблон:Ill as an interval act to give the juries a break to deliberate.[24]
During the live transmission of the contest several countries were unable to see or hear the Italian entry, which was the first act to perform, due to a technical fault, and it was subsequently allowed to perform again after the last song.[9][15][25]
The winner was Шаблон:Esccnty represented by the song "Шаблон:Lang", composed by Pierre Delanoë, written by Hubert Giraud and performed by André Claveau.[26] This was the first of an eventual five contest victories that France would go on to achieve.[27]
The Italian entry, "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Domenico Modugno, went on to become a worldwide success, and was one of the first Eurovision songs to achieve notability outside of the contest.[9] Popularly known as "Volare", the song went to number one in the US Billboard Hot 100, as well as reaching the top 5 in singles charts in Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands and Norway, and the top 10 in the United Kingdom, and was named Record of the Year and Song of the Year at the first edition of the Grammy Awards held in May 1959.[28][29][30][31][32] The song has been covered by several artists, including Dean Martin, Dalida and Gipsy Kings, and many new versions with lyrics in different languages have been produced.[33][34] "Шаблон:Lang" was also nominated in 2005 to compete in Congratulations: 50 Years of the Eurovision Song Contest, a special broadcast to determine the contest's most popular entry of its first 50 years as part of the contest's anniversary celebrations. One of 14 entries chosen to compete, "Шаблон:Lang" ultimately finished in second place behind "Waterloo", ABBA's winning song from the Шаблон:Escyr.[35][36]

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".
No official accounts of the viewing figures are known to exist. In his introductory remarks, the Dutch commentator stated that a total number of "about 25 million viewers" across Europe could be estimated.[24]
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.[44] Known details on the broadcasts in each country, including the specific broadcasting stations and commentators are shown in the tables below.
