Deutschen Musikinstrumentenpreis erhalten!

Offener Brief an Bundeswirtschaftsminister Dr. Robert Habeck

Der Deutsche Musikrat (DMR) appelliert in einem offenen Brief an Bundeswirtschaftsminister Dr. Robert Habeck, sich für das Weiterbestehen des Deutschen Musikinstrumentenpreises einzusetzen. Das Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz vergibt den Preis seit 1990 für in Deutschland produzierte Musikinstrumente von höchster Qualität und mit besonderen innovativen Eigenschaften. Durch die Einstellung des Preises sollen nun jährlich 60.000 Euro eingespart werden. Der DMR ist mit dem Anliegen, den Preis zu erhalten, zudem an Kulturstaatsministerin Claudia Roth herangetreten sowie an das Präsidium des Deutschen Bundestages, das in dieser Woche u.a. eine Instrumentenbauwerkstatt im Sächsischen Vogtland besuchte.

Um die Bürgerinnen und Bürger für die Bedeutung des Deutschen Musikinstrumentenpreises ebenso wie der ganzen Musikinstrumentenbaubranche zu sensibilisieren und eine wirkmächtige gemeinsame Positionierung zu diesem Thema zu ermöglichen, hat der Deutsche Musikrat die Petition „Deutscher Musikinstrumentenpreis: „Oscar“ des Musikinstrumentenbaus erhalten!“ gestartet. Sie kann unter folgendem Link unterzeichnet werden: https://chng.it/5YFBXPC2nM.
