April 2010
Henk Neven awarded the Dutch Music Prize

The Dutch Music Prize ('Nederlandse Muziekprijs') is the highest honor that the Ministry of Culture can

 
  award to a classical musician. The prize is awarded based on the advice of the Dutch Music Prize Advisory Board, that is a part of the Dutch Fund for the Performing Arts. Just as other recipients of this prestigious prize, Henk Neven successfully followed a study path with the main emphasis being on the musical development of the artist. Candidates for the prize have the opportunity to coach with the best musicians in the world.
The date that Neven will officially receive the prize is not yet known.

 
  De Nederlandse Muziekprijs is de hoogste onderscheiding die door het Ministerie van OCW aan een musicus, werkzaam in de klassieke muziek, kan worden uitgereikt. De prijs wordt toegekend op advies van de Adviescommissie Nederlandse Muziekprijs, die is ondergebracht bij het Fonds Podiumkunsten. Net als andere prijswinnaars van de Nederlandse Muziekprijs volgde Henk Neven een succesvol studietraject in het kader van deze prestigieuze prijs. In dit traject staat persoonlijke muzikale ontwikkeling centraal. Daarbij worden coachings aangegaan met de beste musici in binnen- en buitenland. Wanneer de prijs officieel wordt uitgereikt wordt nog bekend
gemaakt.
