The European Music Council (EMC) is a regional group of the International Music Council (IMC) representing Europe. It was established in 1972 as the 'European regional group of the IMC' and was renamed the European Music Council in 1992. The IMC was founded by UNESCO in 1949, and is, today, a non-governmental organisation (NGO), which still retains formal relations with UNESCO.[1] Until 2000 the secretariat was based in Aarau, Switzerland, and is now in Bonn, Germany.


The EMC functions as a non-governmental advisory body on musical matters. The membership includes National Music Councils from 15 European countries (including countries outside the European Union such as Azerbaijan, Israel, Russia, and Ukraine); 18 European music organisations; 18 international music organisations and 24 national music organisations or organisations that specialise in specific areas of music.
