INFO CIO# 2 / 160 applications from 25 countries!

On Saturday 15 June 2024, the call for applications for our second International Orchestration Competition closed. And the least we can say is that the response was overwhelming once again: 160 applications from 25 different countries!

Next on the IOC#2 calendar:

– 1 August 2024: deadline for submitting the pre-selection work (Opus 26 n°5 by Theodor Kirchner).
– During August 2024: meetings of the pre-selection jury
– 2 September 2024: announcement of the shortlisted candidates, admitted to the semi-final phase.

The semi-final phase will finish at the end of 2024. The grand final, with the public presentation of the last works in the running, is scheduled for the first quarter of 2025.

Thank you to all our partners and to all our candidates for their confidence and enthusiasm… And we can’t wait to see what happens next!
