Iggy Pop receives the Polar Music Prize 2022 Polar Music Prize 2022-05-24 | Congratulations Iggy Pop – Laureate of the 2022 Polar Music Prize!The Polar Music Prize 2022 is awarded to American rock icon James Newell Osterberg, better known as Iggy Pop. With his era-defining group The Stooges, Iggy Pop created furious rock music by blending together blues and free jazz influences with the roar of the Michigan automotive industry. With his courage, initiative and raw power, Iggy Pop paved the way for punk and post-punk. Groups like the Sex Pistols, Ramones, Blondie, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division and Nick Cave all followed in his footsteps. As a solo artist, Iggy Pop has never slowed down, and has instead pushed this art form forwards for half a century. Iggy Pop is ‘the chairman of the bored’ who portrays alienation in poetic language. A wholly unique artist who personifies and embodies what rock music is about.Connect with the Polar Music Prize: Website: polarmusicprize.orgFacebook: facebook.com/polarmusicprize Instagram: instagram.com/polarmusicprize Twitter: twitter.com/polarmusicprize Subscribe now to the Polar Music Prize on YouTube: youtube.com/c/Polarmusicprizeofficial#PolarMusicPrize

Anna Netrebko - Polar Music Prize 2020 Official Announcement Polar Music Prize 2020-02-11 | The Polar Music Prize 2020 is awarded to Russian operatic soprano Anna Netrebko. Star quality has a deeper meaning in the opera world. Being a virtuoso vocalist is not enough. As an art form, opera is also about capturing the audience’s attention. No one in the modern era does that better than opera diva Anna Netrebko. As a reviewer put it, she defines the word ‘extra’. With her magnificent voice and glowing charisma, she is a larger-than-life singer who keeps the classics alive, sells out every performance and also catches the attention of audiences new to opera; Anna Netrebko opens doors. She was the first classical musician to be included in Time Magazine’s ‘The Top 100 Most Influential People’. When Anna Netrebko performs, it’s impossible to look away.Connect with the Polar Music Prize: Website: polarmusicprize.orgFacebook: facebook.com/polarmusicprize Instagram: instagram.com/polarmusicprize Twitter: twitter.com/polarmusicprize Subscribe now to the Polar Music Prize on YouTube: youtube.com/c/Polarmusicprizeofficial#PolarMusicPrize #AnnaNetrebko

Anne-Sophie Mutter - Polar Music Prize 2019 Official Announcement Polar Music Prize 2019-07-08 | The Polar Music Prize 2019 is awarded to the German violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter, known as ’the Queen of the Violin’. She grew up in a small village in the Black Forest. By the age of five, it was obvious that the football-playing girl had an exceptional musical talent. At the age of 13, she auditioned for Herbert von Karajan. The following year, she started playing with Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Over the years, several of the world's foremost modern composers have written music specially for her. With her Stradivarius under her chin, Anne-Sophie Mutter is not just one passionate and risk-taking musician – she is also a storyteller. As she herself said, “Music is only touching when it tells a story.” With her passionate commitment to justice, Mutter demonstrates the power and key role of music in the world.
