During last night's second gala of the Final Phase on TELEMUNDO's "La Voz Kids," hosts Jorge Bernal and Patricia Manterola announced the 12 voices that are competing during the upcoming Semifinal, airing this coming Sunday, July 3rd at 8pm/7c. The evening filled the soundstage at Universal Orlando Resort with music and rhythm as Coach Pedro Fernandez sang "Duele Ver," and Jonael Santiago, winner of the third season, debuted his first single "Sonrie a la Vida" and joined season four contestants for a performance of Carlos Santana's worldwide hit, "Oye Como Va."

The audience votes were revealed and three voices per Coach Team moved on to the Semifinal, surprising everyone with the three 'Wild Card' winners that were among the top three most voted contestants. Coaches Daddy Yankee, Natalia Jimenez and Pedro Fernandez also saved one contestant from their team to perform next Sunday.
