Estonian Music Council (EMC) founded in 1992 is a non-governmental organisation that serves as a representative body of Estonian musicians.
The main activities of the EMC are advocating and appraising Estonian music in all its modes of expression. EMC is there to deal with and find possible solutions to the most essential problems in music life. It acts as a mediator between foreign and Estonian music organisations trying to match the most suitable partners. This is also one of the main goals of the EMC: to bring together Estonian and international music organisations. Thus the EMC mediates information about Estonian music circles to interested parties both inside and outside Estonia.
The EMC also distributes State grants and cooperates closely with the Estonian Ministry of Culture. additionally, the EMC awards the music prize since 2002, giving credit to Estonian musicians or music institutions whose activities have furthered the development of music scene. The music prize is awarded on the International Day of Music.
