Telemann Prize
German music prize
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Telemann Prize is an annual classical music award for special achievements in interpretation, research and cultivation of the life and work of Georg Philipp Telemann.
Since 1987, the city of Magdeburg has awarded the prize every year in March at the time of Telemann's birthday (14 March). Prize winners can be artists, scientists, music teachers, ensembles, institutions or laymen.[1][2]
The prize consists of a bronze plaque designed by the Berlin sculptor Wilfried Fitzenreiter and is endowed with 2,500 euros.[3][4]
