history
A meeting between the director of the conservatory in Venice Renato Fasano and the director of the Salzburg Mozarteum Bernhard Paumgartner and his colleague Eberhard Preussner gave the idea for the establishment of a supranational association of music academies . A first meeting of music schools offering professional training was organized in Bad Aussee in the summer of 1953 and representatives of these schools from 22 countries appeared. The conference was continued in Salzburg and the foundation was completed.
