Matteo Giammario Concerto Competition Preliminary Round Submission Form 2024-2025
Guidelines:
  • The Matteo Giammario is open to all members of the GPYO ensembles.
  • Participants can compete on any instrument.
  • The winner of the competition will perform as a soloist with the GPYO Symphonic Orchestra at the Spring Concert at Richardson Auditorium.
  • Concerto selections should be around 10 minutes in length. 5 minutes is the minimum, 15 minutes is the maximum. Students may combine two or more shorter concerto movements. “Ensemble passages” in long single movements may be omitted during the competition.
  • Repertoire must be suitable for performance with the GPYO Symphonic Orchestra, both in terms of difficulty and instrumentation (at the discretion of the conductor). Repertoire must be published and “in print”/available.
  • Memorization is optional.
  • The repertoire performed in the Preliminary Round video must be the same as the Final Round.
  • A piano accompanist is optional for the Preliminary Round video, however, it is required for competing in the Final Round Live Competition. Students are responsible for finding and scheduling their own accompanist.
  • There is no charge to compete in the Concerto Competition.
  • Past winners of the GPYO Concerto Competition are not eligible to compete again.
  • The preliminary round submission should demonstrate your ability and command of the piece at the current time. This does not have to be perfect! It also does not have to be your full 10 minute performance. At minimum, please make your video 3 minutes and a maximum 7-10 minutes depending on if you want to submit your whole piece. If you have any questions on length or want to ask for an exception, please email jpucciatti@gpyo.org.
