The Outstanding Artist Award for Music is given annually by the Federal Chancellery of Austria for achievements that influence the current art scene.[1] Creative people are honored who can already show a meaningful oeuvre and whose works are of artistic supraregional importance.[2] The prize is endowed with €10,000.[3] The award winners are selected by an independent expert jury.[3] In total, the Outstanding Artists Awards are given in 14 categories.[2]
