Golden Harp
The Golden Harp (Dutch:Gouden Harp) is awarded annually to Dutch musicians for their entire oeuvre. Golden Harps have been awarded 42 times. 149 different persons or (musical) groups have had the honour of receiving the award which is considered to be one of the most important prizes in Dutch music.
Background
The awards were first presented in 1962 by Conamus, a foundation dedicated to promote Dutch light music. Conamus, founded by singer and entrepreneur John de Mol senior (father of John and Linda de Mol) is currently known as Buma Cultuur.
The prize is intended for a musician's entire oeuvre. The website of Buma Cultuur states the following: "Considered for this award are persons who have made themselves particularly meritorious for Dutch light music throughout their careers.".
Apart from 1963 and 1964 award ceremonies were held every year since the first presentation in 1962. In the eleventh edition in 1975 Cor Lemaire and Wim Ibo returned their awards after a Gouden Harp had been awarded to Mary Servaes-Bey (better known by her stage name Zangeres Zonder Naam).[1]
The winners are selected by a different jury each year, usually in February. Buma Cultuur also presents the Zilveren Harp award, which is given to promising Dutch musical talent.
