EFM2023 - The Musical Doughnut

EMC logo 2010

 

From 8 to 10 June 2023, over 150 representatives from more than 20 European countries gathered at the House of Music Hungary in Budapest for the 11th edition of the European Forum on Music (EFM).

Sou Fujimoto, architect of the House of Music Hungary, is quoted saying: “There is an infinite diversity of the world itself, but we should listen to the diversity beyond these designs, and we should be able to create such a space that accepts and transforms the diversity”. This ethos struck a chord with the theme of this year’s EFM, 'Sustain Music', wherein cultural professionals from all over Europe and beyond came together to talk about creating a safe and welcoming musical ecosystem; one that promotes inclusivity, embraces diversity, and strives for social, economic, and environmental sustainability; an ecosystem that ultimately sustains music in all its forms and processes.
