About the funder
The Christoph and Stephan Kaske Foundation is a private foundation based in Berg (Upper Bavaria), dedicated to the promotion of contemporary music and composition. At the core of its work are two annual composition awards: the Christoph and Stephan Kaske Foundation Prize and the JukeBoxx NewMusic Award, in cooperation with nmz neue musik zeitung. A four-member advisory board decides on the awarding of composers, thereby providing impetus for the further development of New Music in Germany and internationally.
