With her song ‘La Voce Della Terra', Marta Viola will represent Italy. This is 'Going to Gliwice', our feature counting down to the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2019 on Sunday 24 November in Gliwice-Silesia, Poland.

Marta is very excited about performing on the Junior Eurovision stage: "It will be amazing to perform in front of so many people across the continent." Once she arrives in Poland, she is most excited about making new friends with other nationalities and the opportunity to grow as an artist.

Marta's song, La Voce Della Terra, was written by Emilio di Stefano and Fabrizio Palaferri and composed by Marco Iardella and Franco Fasano.
