The lowest and highest marks will be removed from the evaluation of the five jury member for each composition. Only one work for each composer can be selected as finalist.
This will determine a ranking from which the three finalist compositions will emerge.

In December 2024, at the conclusion of the 61st Nuova Consonanza festival, the selected pieces will be performed by pianist Erik Bertsch in a public concert, following which the winning composition will be announced.

The first prize comprises € 1.000 and publication of the score by Edizioni Suvini Zerboni, Milano.

 

The jury reserves the right not to nominate finalists and not to proclaim any prize winner. The jury also reserves the right to award ex-aequo prizes and to provide ‘special mentions’. The jury’s judgment is unquestionable.

In case of legal disputes, the competent forum is that of Rome. The original (Italian) version of the present call stands as the only source reference for legal disputes.
