The Jazzpar Prize (established 1990) was an annual Danish jazz prize founded by trumpeter Arnvid Meyer. The winner was chosen from five nominees among internationally recognized performers. The winner received 200,000 Danish crowns and a bronze statue designed by Jørgen Haugen Sørensen.[1][2] The ceremony was held in Copenhagen in the late spring, and began a week of jazz activities in the capital. The main sponsor for many years was the Scandinavian Tobacco Company. The prize ended in 2005 due to loss of sponsorship.
