The obligatory program of the participant choirs must include a composition written before 1920, an original composition or arrangement of a Slovenian folk song by a Slovenian composer, written from 2009 to the present, and other pieces of the choir’s choosing.
The obligatory program of the participant vocal groups must include a composition by a composer born between 1500 and dead by 1750, an original composition or arrangement of a Slovenian folk song by a Slovenian composer, written from 2009 until now, and other pieces of the vocal group’s choosing.
The program must contain a minimum of three pieces and is limited to a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 16 minutes of pure music. One of the pieces in the program may be performed with instrumental accompaniment if this is provided for in the original of the chosen piece. Only non-intonated instruments may be used in any performance of other works. Compositions with soloists are only allowed if the solo part is not predominant.
