The team at ESCToday.com have arrived in the host city of Vienna, ready to bring you the latest news live from the Eurovision scene. Today we’re here at the first Eurovision 2015 rehearsals for semi-final 2.

Anita & Michele, this year’s representatives of San Marino, were the third artists to rehearse on the Eurovision stage today. Performing their entry Chain of lights, the duo perform on stage alongside 4 backing vocalists. The backing vocalists wear fully black outfits, whilst Anita & Michele both wear lighter, white outfits.

Plenty of lights appear on the backing LED screen whilst the duo perform their entry, with an image of the Earth features later on in the performance.

Below is a short preview of this years performance from San Marino.

After the rehearsal, we spoke with other press members to find out what they had to say about San Marino’s performance.
