Hermann-Löns-Medaille
The Hermann-Löns-Medaille, awarded since 1974 in the categories platinum, gold, silver and bronze, is a prize of the magazine Das Neue Blatt from the Bauer Media Group, awarded for special merits in the field of popular music.[1] The prize is named after the poet Hermann Löns.[2][3]
It recognises merits in the promotion and cultivation of folk song, folk music, German folk song as well as folk entertainment and is awarded in particular to singers, composers and presenters as well as to orchestras, choirs, vocal groups and instrumental soloists. The award was presented at a festive award ceremony under the title Heimat-Melodie. The patrons included the Minister Presidents of the Federal States of Schleswig-Holstein and Bavaria, the Governing Mayor of Berlin and the Federal Minister of the Interior. The award is currently suspended.[4][5]
