The Voice (Russian: Голос) is a Russian singing competition television series broadcast on Channel One. Based on the original The Voice of Holland, it has aired eight seasons and aims to find currently unsigned singing talent (solo or duets, professional and amateur) contested by aspiring singers, age 17 or over, drawn from public auditions. The winner is determined by television viewers voting by telephone, SMS text, and The Voice App.
The winners of the twelve seasons have been: Dina Garipova, Sergey Volchkov, Alexandra Vorobyova, Hieromonk Fotiy, Darya Antonyuk, Selim Alakhyarov, Petr Zakharov, Asker Berbekov, Yana Gabbasova, Alexander Volkodav, Viktoria Solomakhina, and Bogdan Shuvalov.
The series employs a panel of four coaches who critique the artists' performances and guide their teams of selected artists through the remainder of the season. They also compete to ensure that their act wins the competition, thus making them the winning coach. The original panel featured Dima Bilan (seasons 1–3, 5–6, 10), Pelageya (seasons 1–3, 6, 10), Alexander Gradsky (seasons 1–4, 6, 10), and Leonid Agutin (seasons 1–3, 5–6, 10). The coaching panel for the most recent twelfth season featured Vladimir Presnyakov (seasons 11-), Polina Gagarina (seasons 4-5, 8-9, 11-), Zivert (Season 12-) and Anton Belyaev (seasons 11-).Other coaches from previous seasons include Grigory Leps (seasons 4–5), Ani Lorak (season 7), Konstantin Meladze (seasons 7–8), Sergey Shnurov (seasons 7–9), Valeriy Syutkin (seasons 8 and 9) and Basta (seasons 4, 7, 9, 11).
The Voice began airing on October 5, 2012, as an autumn-winter TV season program. The show proved to be a hit for Channel One. So far, the series has aired for twelve seasons.
