(23) Since its creation, the European Union Youth Orchestra has developed a unique expertise in promoting intercultural dialogue, mutual respect and understanding through culture. The particularity of the European Union Youth Orchestra lies in the fact that it is a European orchestra that transcends cultural boundaries and is composed of young musicians selected in accordance with demanding artistic criteria through a rigorous annual audition process in all Member States. Therefore, it should be eligible for direct Union support. To secure that support it should increase its visibility, strive to achieve a more balanced representation of musicians from all Member States within the orchestra and it should diversify its revenues by actively seeking financial support from sources other than Union funding.
