The European Union of Music Competitions for Youth (EMCY) is the European umbrella organization for more than 60 national and international music competitions for children and young people. It was founded in 1970 as a non-profit organisation in order to develop the musical education and promotion of musical talents in the pre-professional area on a European level. Through Europe-wide musical cooperation EMCY also hopes to promote the European spirit in other fields of public and private life. The activities of EMCY have created a network which opens new possibilities of promotion and support of young musical talents and facilitates the exchange of pedagogical, organisational, practical and musical know-how.
