Art/Literary - Architecture / competition for public works
Italian term or phrase: Concorso di primo grado
We are talking about a competition in 1901 to select the sculptor of the statue of Giuseppe Verdi in Trieste.

They defined it as a "Concorso di primo grado"

Does this mean they were inviting only top-level participants?

I've classified this as "Architecture", not knowing what else to call it.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks, I had also thought of something like that and my provisional sentence said first stage of the competition, but first round sounds better.

Asker: here's the context I have: "Verbale della riunione del Comitato che dichiara chiuso il Concorso di primo grado, con un totale di 76 concorrenti"
