Application for Membership

 

The AEAA is open to any european artists’ manager or duly qualified and experienced person who is established in the classical music industry. Membership is granted to an individual and not to a company, to stress the importance of collaboration on a personal level. This is a hallmark that distinguishes the aeaa from other networks.

Three membership types for the AEAA are being offered (Full, Affiliate and Associate) – please contact us (info[at]aeaa.info) for more information.

A written application for membership should be addressed to the office of the President and must be sponsored by four members of the Association at least two of which are citizens of countries other than that of the candidate and at least one citizen of the country of the candidate, if available.

The president will inform the members of the application for membership. If no objections by the members are raised within 14 days, the Board will vote on the application.

In case of objections, the admission will be postponed to the next General Assembly, whereby the members will vote by a two-thirds majority to admit the applicant.
