THE FIVE MUSICAL RIGHTS
The IMC works towards the advancement of the following rights:
· the right for all children and adults
- to express themselves musically in all freedom
- to learn musical languages and skills
- to have access to musical involvement through participation, listening, creation, and information
· the right for musical artists
- to develop their artistry and communicate through all media, with proper facilities at their disposal
- to obtain just recognition and remuneration for their work

 

 


 

I look forward to receiving your nominations.
