vision – Mission – facts
vision
ECMA has a vision: The “ECMA-spirit,” with its approach to music and musicmaking, ought to become a “matter of course” for musicians and audiences
alike. By constantly re-evaluating the treasures of our cultural heritage and
­developing new creative ­potentials in interpretation based on research into the
philosophy and musical language of the 17th and 18th centuries, ECMA seeks to
contribute to a ­society and future that are worth living in.
Mission
ECMA – European Chamber Music Academy is recognized as the number one
“talent laboratory” for European chamber music ensembles. ECMA is
dedicated to promoting young, aspiring, elite ensembles – and hence to
promoting the tradition and development of European chamber music.
It has charitable organization-status and its ­activities are non-profit-making.
ECMA was founded in 2004 at the initiative of Hatto Beyerle. It is an association
of European music universities, conservatoires and festivals in the field of
chamber music that, together, provide ongoing training for ­chamber music
­en­sembles. Within this program, the partner institutions host regular sessions
­(lasting one week each; seven or more weeks per year). Renowned tutors work
inten­sively with the ensembles, imparting to them new impulses for their
artistic work. The young musicians will receive aditional impulses from lectures
and ­focused workshops on topics including ­cultural history, historically informed performance, and philosophy. In addition to helping participants explore
the importance and ­impact of cultural knowledge such as rhetoric and Greek
verse in order to gain a more profound understanding of European music,
ECMA also collaborates with academic partners on research projects in
various fields. And of course, ECMA also works to develop new networks by
bringing together people from different backgrounds and cultures.

ECMA ensembles about ECMA
ECMA ensembles about ECMA I
ECMA a însemnat una din cele mai ­importante etape pentru dezvoltarea
noastră ca ansamblu, și mai mult decât atât, a fost și este ca o familie pentru noi.
ECMA este locul unde am învăţat ce înseamnă muzica de cameră în toate
aspectele ei profunde, alături de personalităţi marcante ale vieţii muzicale
internaţionale.
Arcadia Quartet
Avoir vécu l’expérience ECMA, c’est avoir vécu une aventure humaine et artistique
qui a façonné et soudé notre trio d’une manière déterminante, et qui marquera toute notre vie de musicien.
Trio Atanassov
We are grateful for the time that we were able to spend with you and ECMA.
We learned a lot and got to know great people.
Berolina Trio
Die Arbeit mit den großartigen Musikern bei der ECMA hat uns im Kopf viele
Türen geöffnet, uns neue Wege für unsere Interpretation gezeigt und uns
immer wieder zu Diskussionen und zur Reflexion über unser Spiel angeregt.
Die Gemeinschaft mit den anderen Ensembles, die sich für denselben
musikalischen Weg entschieden haben, war schön zu erleben, und dies hat uns in
unserer Entscheidung für die Kammermusik immer wieder bestärkt und bestätigt.
Es war eine spannende Zeit, von der wir noch immer profitieren!
Boulanger Trio
ECMA is THE chamber music program! We learned more about the repertoire and
about music there, and we met incredible and enthusiastic teachers. Many thanks
for everything!
Trio Chausson
Ecma è la casa per Giovani Quartetti
Quarteto di Cremona
Bez European Chamber Music Academy z pewnością nie bylibyśmy w miejscu,
w którym obecnie się znajdujemy.
Szczególnie intensywna współpraca z Johannesem Meisslem i Hatto Beyerle
pomogła nam zbudować solidne podstawy kwartetu i miała istotny wpływ na
obecny charakter zespołu.

ECMA is a true door-opener.
Trio ClariNord
Thanks to its mentors, ECMA possesses the power to motivate each and every
ensemble on a highly individual level, with every course exciting and every new piece of information a discovery. It‘s an adventure in living through music, inspiring us
to ­improve ourselves as musicians.

ECMA ensembles about ECMA
ECMA ensembles about ECMA II
Without ECMA, our group wouldn’t exist as we do today. It enormously helped
our musicality, and it also helped us in learning the language and finding music’s
secret beauty.
에크마 없이는 지금 우리의 그룹이 현재처럼 존재하지 않을 것입니다.
Trio Gaspard
For us in Oslo, the opportunity to access the best impulses in European chamber
music represents a great enrichment. And at our Oslo Sessions, it was important to
us that the ECMA participants have a chance to experience the highlights of our
Norwegian cultural history. In the midst of our session venue’s beautiful natural
­surroundings, we visited art museums and listened to folk music, with the participants also dancing folk dances themselves.
Norges musikkhøgskole
The European Chamber Music Academy offers what every young ensemble dreams
of: regular training with the most accomplished mentors you can find anywhere in
the world. Though their perspectives differ, they are, united by a common impetus.
This impetus is like oxygen for a young ensemble, and in an ECMA session, young
ensembles and incredible pedagogues breath the same air. Indeed, one of the
unique ­features of ECMA is the opportunity to really get to know the tutors: in a
­very convivial atmosphere, we can prolong the lessons with talks around a glass
at Café Schwarzenberg in Vienna, share opinions on a musical subject after a
­lecture... All this is very stimulating. In a nutshell, ECMA is a true musician’s music
course! L’ ECMA, une fête de la conscience musicale!
Trio Karénine
For us, ECMA is one of the greatest sources of inspiration. It offers us ­everything
we need to develop: concert appearances, intense musical work with great musical
personalities, detailed work on quartet technique, and – thanks to the lectures –
­honing of our intellectual awareness.
Pacific Quartet Vienna
ECMA is much more than an extra­ordinary chamber music academy with the
best tutors and the most stimulating young european ensembles: it goes beyond
professional trainingg to link music, philosophy and language in a unique way
that seeks to apprehend the heart of our european culture via Soctratic-style
teaching and critical thinking.
CUARTETO QUIROGA
ECMAssa vietetyt vuodet valoivat Meta4:n kivijalan ja olivat ratkaisevat meidän koko
olemassaololle. ECMA avasi meille suoran yhteyden jousik­vartetin synnyinlähteille, on
vaikea kuvitella inspiroivempaa opiskeluympäristöä nuorelle jousikvartetille.

ECMA war für uns ein wunderbarer und unvergesslicher, auch intensiver Abschnitt
in unseren Quartettanfängen! Die ersten Begegnungen und Unterrichtsstunden
mit Legenden der Musikgeschichte wie Norbert Brainin-Amadeus Quartett,
Milan Skampa-Smetana Quartett und großen Persönlichkeiten des aktuellen
Konzertgeschehens waren prägende, unvergessliche Momente für die wir sehr
dankbar sind!
Das ­Gemeinschaftsgefühl mit den vielen anderen ECMA-Gruppen, also Gleichgesinnten wurde in den Sessions vertieft. Die Vorträge, Workshops und gemeinsamen
Konzerte motivierten zu Höchstleistungen. Sehr gut in Erinnerung sind uns vor
­allem Fiesole, Zürich, Groß­raming und Wien.
Minetti Quartett
ECMA has truly been a blessing for us.
Streeton Trio
Ever since we first heard of ECMA, it’s been our dream to become a member. ECMA allows you not only to expand your horizons in terms of musical ­perception, but
also to enhance your communication skills and didactic knowledge while having a
chance to immerse yourself in the cultures of other countries. For our lives and our
career together, we view ECMA as being of inestimeable value, and we’re very glad
that we can be part of it.
Piano trio FortVio
ECMA was lifechanging.
