Brillanti Returns Tonight! And It’s Singers’ Turn!

Feb 12 2025

The acclaimed local talent TV show Brillanti returns today, turning the spotlight onto singers for this season!

With host Joseph Chetcuti once again at the helm, he will be joined by four absolute stars in the scene: Verdiana, Greta Manuzi, Nathaniel Morrion and Sarah Harrison.

Verdiana Zangaro first captured hearts at the 2003 Sanremo Festival and as a finalist on Amici di Maria De Filippi. She went on to win the prestigious 14th edition of Tale e Quale Show.

Greta Manuzi rose to prominence as the runner-up in the 12th edition of Amici di Maria De Filippi in 2013, going on to release her debut EP, Solo rumore and her album Ad omni costo in 2014.

On his part, Morrion has led a spectacular musical theatre journey, from West End to the rest of the world. Making his debut as Stevie Wonder in Dancing in the Streets, he’s since taken on roles in Moulin Rouge, Jersey Boys, Sister Act, Hairspray and much, much more!

And last but not least, Sarah Harrison is a global Hip-Hop DJ presenter and producer who worked from Hot 97 to BBC 1Xtra with icons like Quincy Jones and Nas. She has also interviewed chart-toppers like Future and Metro Boomin.

This year will be another intense, emotion-filled search for Malta’s brilliant talent, crowning a singer as the winner of the fourth season. But that’s still a long way to go – and it all starts today, Wednesday 12th February on ONE at 20:45.
