FEDERAL EXPERT COMMITTEES
The federal expert committees are specialist bodies dedicated to individual facets of musical life and its framework conditions. They are the German Music Council's "think tanks," advising the Executive Committee on specific professional issues and, in turn, bringing discussion suggestions, proposals, and recommended resolutions to the Executive Committee.
Around 50 personalities from all areas of music and cultural life are involved on a voluntary basis in the seven federal expert committees: Education, Labor and Social Affairs, Media, Law, Music Business, Diversity, and Future Workshop.
