It’s the third time that pre-art is calling for compositions in the region where the organisation has been working during the last six years. The aim consists in finding young composers in order to promote them in an international context.

The competition is directed at composers from following countries: Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Georgia, Kosova, Macedonia, Moldavia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, Turkey and Ucraine.

We demand a quartet composition for the following instruments: flute (also piccolo/alto flute), oboe (also cor anglais/bass oboe), concert accordion and double bass.
