Beosong
On 28 November 2012, RTS announced that they would organize an open competition called Beosong that would consist of a semi-final, containing a maximum of 15 songs, and a final where the top five entries from the semi-final would compete for victory.[4] The submission period opened on 1 December 2012 and was scheduled to close on 20 January 2013, however, an extension of one day was granted since the deadline coincided with a weekend.[4][5] On 29 January, RTS announced that it had received 171 songs during the submission period and that a selection committee composed of music professionals would select the 15 competing entries.[6] On 31 January, 15 songs were selected to compete in the semi-final round.[7] The jury that selected the entries consisted of:[7]
- Biljana Krstić (musical editor in Radio Belgrade)
- Momčilo Bajagić (musician and composer)
- Vladimir Maričić (composer and pianist)
- Dragoslav Stanisavljević (editor in chief for jazz section in RTS musical production)
- Dobroslav Predić (editor in musical section of RTS)
On 6 February, the performers for the 15 songs were confirmed.[8]
