FINAL CONFERENCE ON THE PROFESSIONALISATION AND INTERNATIONALISATION OF EMERGING MUSICIANS' CAREERS

The EPIC project, co-funded by the Creative Europe program of the EU, is coming to an end in December 2021. On Friday, 19 November 2021 (16.00 to 17.30 CEST) at the ECA Membership Weekend in Lyon, we will take some time to look back over the project and its activities to enhance the careers of emerging musicians. Notably, this will include the results of the EPIC data collection on career progression of alumni from national and international youth music ensembles which will support choirs and choral organizations in marketing and advocating for themselves. We look forward seeing you there. In the meantime, find more information here!

 

#2 SHIFT INCLUSION SERIES

“My position just innately in the organization has so much power, I think it's critical for me to let go of that power. To facilitate voices, to support people.”

Grab your cup of tea, sit comfortably, and gather some inspiration from second of the SHIFT Inclusion interview series. Watch Maria Hansen (Executive Director of ELIA - European League of Institutes of the Arts) interview David Baile (CEO of the International Society for the Performing Arts [ISPA]) about the organization’s long-term journey towards equity, diversity, and inclusion throughout the various aspects of its work as a global network.
