“The Sound of Beauty” will be the official slogan of the 66th Eurovision Song Contest, coming to us live from Turin in Italy in May 2022.

The artwork for this year is based on the symmetrical structure and forms found in cymatics, the study of sound. As well as reflecting the mandala-like patterns of sound waves, the logo was also designed to look like an Italian garden, with the design realised in red, white and green, the colours of the Italian flag – well, the contest is going to be in Italy after all!

Although Hebrew is not currently one of the languages of Europe in a Day usually writes in, as Israel regularly participate at the Eurovision Song Contest, I make an effort to include Hebrew in Eurovision-related language posts. So here’s this year’s slogan in Hebrew too!

  • Hebrew – צליל היופי (Tslil hayofi)
