Short description of the organisation
The European Association of Conservatoires (AEC), founded in 1953, is a dynamic European cultural and educational network with more than 238 member institutions for professional music training in 55 countries.
The objective of the AEC is to support professional music training in Europe through the organisation of European projects, congresses and seminars, exchanges, research and by representing the interests of its members on European, national and international level.
The AEC Office is currently established in Utrecht, The Netherlands, sharing a building in the historic city centre with several other cultural organisations.
Each year the AEC organises, in a different European country, the Annual Meeting for ERASMUS coordinators of European Conservatoires and the AEC Annual Congress, with the aim to discuss relevant subjects in the field of professional music training in Europe and to exchange information (for more information, please visit the webpage Events). The AEC is also engaged in several projects supported by the European Union, such as 'Polifonia', 'Accreditation in European Professional Music Training', 'DoReMiFaSocrates', 'Mundus Musicalis' (for more information, please visit the webpage Projects).
