The Austrian state prize, worth 30,000 Euros, has been awarded to the Carinthian composer Gerd Kühr.

Kühr, 71, is officially described as ‘a personality who, in his great sensitivity and openness, expresses a commitment to tradition without ever becoming traditionalist, as his gaze is always directed towards new terrain and paths less travelled.’
