Young soprano Rachel Lowell from Lija (right) took part in the Lake Pearls Festival in Macedonia, placing second in her category.
The 11-year-old has been learning drama since the age of four and taking vocal lessons by Gillian Attard for the past two years.
She has competed in several festivals and TV programmes like L-Għanja tal-Poplu, Sajf ma’ Gaffiero and Britain’s Got Talent.
Last March, the singer also won the overall cup at the Erseb Productions Festival, after which she was chosen to represent Malta in Macedonia.
