पंजीकरण और शुल्क

• Registration is open from 15 November to 15 December 2026. The organizer gives a date only. Austria uses CET (Europe/Vienna, UTC+1) then; the precise closing time is unpublished. There is no entry fee.
• Apply online 15 November–15 December 2026. Ages on 31 August 2026: III+ 14–16, IV+ 17–19. From Group III, institute/pre-college solo students must choose PLUS.

Brass: trumpet/flugelhorn, horn, tenor horn/euphonium, trombone, tuba. Percussion has a separate programme. The official public rules give no general letter requirement.
• Create an account or sign in on the official portal. The entrant form is behind sign-in; its fields for recommendation letters, referees, witnesses, identification, photographs, CVs and guardian consent could not be verified. The public rules do not specify such attachments. Travel and accommodation are paid by entrants.
• Eligible are young musicians from Austria, South Tyrol or Liechtenstein, and young people of other nationalities with their main residence in one of those places since at least 1 January 2026. The two programmes are binding at registration.

राउंड और समय-सीमा

Wind and brass provincial qualifier · two compulsory choices

• For your own instrument choose one work from Pool I and one from Pool II in the official list. Pool II is contemporary. Fill the remainder with contrasted repertoire that includes original works; idiomatic arrangements are allowed. Follow the list for prescribed editions, movements and exceptions to the cut rule.
• Keep the compulsory selections intact, using the full instrument-specific appendix for exact works, movements and editions. Written repeats may be omitted and orchestral introductions, interludes or endings shortened. The rulebook does not prescribe a universal work count beyond the two compulsory selections or a universal playing order.

Wind and brass federal final · 14–30 May, Linz

• Advance with at least 90 points. Submit a different programme including a Classical or contemporary work. Only the Pool II contemporary compulsory piece may be carried from the provincial round. Both rounds require at least seven minutes from memory, original copies for contemporary works and live accompaniment where relevant. Reasonable cuts are allowed in free choices.

Percussion · both rounds · mallets plus two categories

• Each programme must include mallet instruments plus two of snare drum, timpani, multiple percussion/drumset and ethnic percussion. No compulsory titles. One work may repeat. Perform at least seven minutes from memory per round, bring original editions for all works, and use no backing tracks. Reasonable cuts are allowed.
• Percussionists also need 90 points to reach the federal round. Submit both fixed programmes at registration. Electronics written into the score are allowed. The organizer does not supply instrumental accompaniment, but can help connect federal finalists with pianists at the candidate’s own expense.
