The International Composers Festival is proud to announce a partnership with EMMA for Peace, a non-profit global organisation for the promotion of peace and cooperation for development through music diplomacy and education in Europe, the Mediterranean region, the Middle East and beyond.
EMMA for Peace (or Euro Mediterranean Music Academy) encourages dialogue and the sharing of musical excellence between international musicians of the highest level and students and young people from disadvantaged backgrounds across Europe, the Middle East and beyond. It uses music as a tool for peace in places torn apart by war, bringing the best talent from the world’s concert halls and academies to refugee camps and other deprived areas where music education is otherwise inaccessible.
We look forward to developing joint initiatives together for the promotion of music diplomacy and our shared values of music as a force for good.
