The preliminary phase of the musical program The Voice Senior, presented on Rai 1 by Antonella Clerici for the 2026 edition, has reached its conclusion with the official closing of the usual blind auditions. According to reports from the RaiNews website, the third installment of the show allowed the full roster of contestants admitted to the next stage of the competition to be completed, outlining the pool of participants who will compete for the title.

Each of the coaches on the program selected six singers to form their official team. In the group led by Nek are Vittorio, Cristina, Paolo, Silvia, Pasqualino, and Federico. Arisa's lineup includes Lucia, Francesca, Clizia, Chantal, Giovanni, and a second contestant named Lucia. The decisions reached during the performances thus defined half of the contestants ready to enter the elimination phase.

The artistic partnership composed of Clementino and Rocco Hunt instead chose to rely on Giosué, Giulia, Rosella, Pasquale, Carlo, and Pasquale M. Meanwhile, the team coordinated by Fiorella Mannoia will field Ivano, Sabrina, Natalino, Anna, Claudio, and Fabiana on stage. All twenty-four performers admitted to the semi-finals represent the final outcome of the listening conducted by the judges during the third television episode.

In the upcoming semi-final round, each contestant will have to perform a specific song assigned by their coach in an attempt to continue their journey. Only three performers for each team will receive the necessary approval to advance directly to the final episode of the musical show, thus determining the decisive selection of finalists who will compete for the final victory of the program.
