International Strategy
Music is a cross-national language meant for creating co-operation and contacts beyond borders. Every year EMO hosts guests from many countries and acquaints them with Finnish music education. EMO regularly sends out delegates to different countries: the students perform and compete, and the teachers receive professional training.

Chamber Music International
FEsTaRi Co-operation
Chamber music co-operation between Espoo Music Institute, Heino Elleri Music school in Tartu, Estonia and Jazepa Medina Music school in Riga, Latvia began 2006. The purpose of the annual co-operation is to bring young active chamber musicians to play together in concerts, master classes and workshops. Each year, the institutes take turns in organizing the events.
Kamarihelmi
Kamarihelmi was first put together in 2008 by Maija Weitz as part of the Espoo Music Festivals. Since then the event has offered EMO students numerous opportunities to make music, perform with and learn from international professional musicians during and beyond their annual February workshops.
