The show's format features five stages of competition: producers' auditions, blind auditions, battle rounds, knockouts (since 2012), and live performance shows.Ĭontestants are aspiring singers drawn from public auditions, which are not broadcast and active recruitment.
The format was later sold to different countries, in many cases replacing a previous Endemol music contest format, Operation Triumph / Star Academy. The show proved to be an instant success in the Netherlands. On 17 September 2010, The Voice of Holland began to air on RTL 4 with Angela Groothuizen, Roel van Velzen, Nick & Simon, and Jeroen van der Boom as the mentor-judges (dubbed as "coaches") of the show. It would also be the first talent show in which social media was actively involved. The rotating chairs concept was invented by Roel van Velzen. He wanted the show's image to be about the focus on singing quality alone, so the coaches must be top artists in the music industry. De Mol then came up with the idea of Blind Audition. Erland Galjaard, a Dutch program director, asked John de Mol about whether he could come up with a format that went a step further than The X Factor. Talpa's John de Mol Jr., creator of Big Brother, first created The Voice concept with Dutch singer Roel van Velzen.
