The Frico Kafenda Award is conferred annually to individuals and organisations for excellent interpretive performance in the area of concert art. It was established in 1964 to commemorate Slovak composer, conductor, pianist and pedagogue Frico Kafenda (b 2 October 1883 Mošovce – d 3 September 1963 Bratislava). The Musical Fund's Council decides the award on the advice of its Concert Artists Committee. Significant Slovak interpretive artists, singers, conductors and chamber bodies are among its recipients.
