Freemuse, the European Live Music Forum (ELMF) and the European Council of Artists (ECA) have published a discussion paper entitled Visas – the discordant note. A White Paper on visa issues, Europe and artists' mobility.
Authored by Hans Hjorth and Olei Reitov, the report sums up some of the problems and challenges of bringing international artists into Europe, or from one country in Europe to another.
