Adolf Busch Award
Category: Music
DescriptionNamed for the German violinist who was one of the first international celebrities to denounce the Nazi regime, the Award aims to recognize and honor organizations that use music to address social injustice, inequity, and lack of opportunity. Although not Jewish himself, Busch took an unwavering and public stand against the Nazis sacrificing his musical career by doing so. The Award supports organizations that focus on nurturing the musical and leadership skills of individuals, focus on systemically disenfranchised segments of the population, engage in grassroots initiatives that promote a pluralistic and equitable society, demonstrate an unique and thoughtful approach to the issues they address and meaningful organizational maturation since inception, and show a rejection of the status quo and a willingness to shape a response to systemic issues in a challenging environment. Complete program guidelines and application instructions can be found on the Web site.
