Walter Willson Cobbett Medal

The Walter Willson Cobbett Medal is awarded annually by the Worshipful Company of Musicians "in recognition of services to Chamber Music". It was established in 1924 and endowed with £50 by Walter Willson Cobbett (1847–1937), an amateur violinist and expert on chamber music who went on to serve as the Company's master in 1928–29. The medal is silver-gilt and features a portrait of Ludwig van Beethoven.[1]
