The total prize money is € 20 000.-. The cciMB 2024 is now open to applications for the preliminary round, held by an online video selection, which will require the performance of a 15 -20 min program including one set piece: Segoviana for Guitar Op. 366 (1957) by Darius Milhaud. The final round will feature a concerto for guitar accompanied by one of Switzerland’s most important orchestras: the Sinfonieorchester Basel.
