Repertoire

• Perform from memory and use different repertoire in each live round. The organizer strongly encourages one Croatian work in either the semifinal or final and offers suggested composers on request.
• Withdrawal, absence, or a late or incomplete application does not qualify for a refund. The jury may interrupt a performance that breaches the programme rules.
• The timing ranges above come from the entry form. The public rules page lists the maximum of each live round. Winners are responsible for obtaining the Croatian personal identification number (OIB) required for prize payment.
