maxresdefaultThis year's challenge, organized in partnership with the Latvian Presidency of the Council of the European Union, is called Europe in Harmony and is open to amateur video-makers, choirs and singing groups from all 28 member states.

Unlike the previous editions of the competition, this year's EESC video challenge has an additional element to it – music. A combined music and video competition, the 2015 challenge is an invitation to all amateur video-makers and singers to take part in a visual and musical dialogue on Europe. Entrants are required to perform an interpretation of Ode to Joy accompanied by a video clip, which can be devoted to a European topic of their choice.

The submission period runs until 20 February 2015 and will be followed by a public vote. The top ten entries according to the public vote will be sent to an expert jury for the final selection. Submissions will be judged on the quality and originality of the video produced as well as the novelty value of the approach to the song, the singing and the musical content. The award ceremony will take place in May 2015 in Brussels.
