Runden & Zeitvorgaben

Video screening · two recordings

  • Two videos conducting an instrumental or vocal ensemble of at least two musicians. Each must show the conductor clearly, including a front view for part of it. The sections may come from the same work and there is no recording-date restriction. Provide direct links that require no access request.

First live round · 4–6 June · 10 minutes

  • With string quintet, conduct Stravinsky Concerto in D, first movement through figure 27, plus one choice: Mozart Divertimento K.138 first movement without repeats, Tchaikovsky Serenade second movement, Respighi Ancient Airs and Dances Suite 3 second movement through bar 122, or Bartók Divertimento first movement through bar 41.

Semifinal · 25 minutes on the podium

  • Receive two assignments 30 minutes before your slot: one Rossini overture from Il barbiere di Siviglia, La gazza ladra and Semiramide, plus one work with piano from Mozart K.40, Mozart K.382 and Beethoven WoO 6. Divide the 25 minutes between run-through and rehearsal as desired.

Final · 10 June · three drawn programmes

  • Each of three finalists draws one pair: Mozart K.40 plus Il barbiere di Siviglia, Mozart K.382 plus La gazza ladra, or Beethoven WoO 6 plus Semiramide. Morning rehearsal up to 40 minutes, followed by the evening public concert.

Repertoire

  • A string quintet and two competition officers evaluate the first round. The orchestra musicians vote in the semifinal and final. Follow the organizer’s instructions for any visa invitation or live-round materials.
