  • One of these will be selected through the Antena 1 “Master Class” radio program, aimed at composers and authors without published works, until October 31st. The selected composer must present to the contest an unpublished song.
  • The last wave will result from the opening to open applications of unreleased songs. All citizens of Portuguese nationality or resident in Portugal, whether or not they have published works are eligible.

The submission of these applications is made through models to be sent to the email: [email protected] , by October 15th.
