The Foundation

The Dag Wirén Foundation has contributed to recordings of the music of Wirén and the publication of books about him, and has also awarded stipends to people who in different ways contribute to and further the awareness of his music. In 2007 the foundation has also created the Dag Wirén Prize that persons or institutions can get as a reward for extra-ordinary work to promote or for the dissemination of Wirén's music.

Interested parties may send in applications to the Foundation for support of projects that help further the performance and knowledge of Wirén's music both within Sweden and abroad. The Foundation does not primarily support tours or individual concerts, instead prioritizing other activities such as seminars, lectures, translations, promotional projects, or the publication in other languages of articles about Wirén's music.

The board consists of Roland Sandberg (chairman), Annika Wirén, Hans Enflo and Stefan Bojsten, with AnnMarie Belfrage and Stefan Karpe as substitutes. The foundation is administered by the Swedish Music Information Centre, Box 27327, 102 54 Stockholm.

Questions or applications should be sent to the chairman of the board, Roland Sandberg, at the email address l.r.sandberg@gmail.com.
