Gammleng Award

The Gammleng Award (Norwegian: Gammleng-prisen) is a Norwegian culture award created by The Fund for Performing Artists in 1982, 25 years after the fund was established in 1957. The award's official name is the Rolf Gammleng award to performing artists (Norwegian: Rolf Gammlengs pris til utøvende kunstnere).[1] It's awarded to artists who have in a meritorious way contributed on recordings, stage performances, or concerts.

The award is named after Rolf Gammleng, who was leading the Norwegian Musicians' Union when the fund was created. It's awarded each year to around 10 artists in various classes, with an award amount of 75 000 kr for the veteran's price and 50 000 kr to all others.[2]
