CURRENT Coproductions: EUROMUSICA

Short Description

Annual festival of folk music or world music (no pop music) to show the variety of styles in different regions of Europe.

The principle is easy but the hosting station of course has the right to put its personality in the production :

• Concert (outdoors or indoors), filmed social events and videoclips with artists on location to give a presentation of the city or the region.
• Accomodation for a certain number of artists and a producer from the guesting stations are paid by the hosting station, as well as the production.
• Beta crew service for personal shots for the guests.
• Artists’ fees and travel expenses are covered by the participating stations.
