A soloist from the Vitebsk "Forum" studio won the first prize at a prestigious song contest in Kazakhstan, the "Vitebsk" Cultural Center informed a BELTA correspondent.

The XI International Vocalists Competition "Golden Microphone," held in Kostanay from April 12 to 14, brought together over 70 groups from Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Lithuania, Poland, Russia, and Ukraine. Contestants performed in three age categories: junior (5-9 years old), middle (10-13 years old), and senior (14-17 years old). Following the competition performances, 14 vocalists were awarded laureate titles, including Vivien Saby, a soloist from the exemplary children's pop song studio "Forum" of the "Vitebsk" Cultural Center, who won the first prize in the middle age category.

The young Vitebsk resident was awarded a laureate diploma and a valuable gift. "Vivien received another prestigious award and a coveted incentive from Mariana Sleniene, president of the XIV International Children and Youth Festival of Pop Art Buen Viaje, who presented her with a grant to participate in the IX International Competition OPUS-2013," the "Vitebsk" Cultural Center noted, expressing hope that the Spanish stage will become another successful springboard in Vivien Saby's solo career.

The International Competition OPUS-2013 will be held from June 14 to 21, 2013, in the city of Lloret de Mar (Catalonia, Spain).
