The launch of the Martin Fröst Foundation took place at the Stockholm Concert Hall on April 23, where Fröst gave a concert together with the Swedish Chamber Orchestra and Adolf Fredrik’s Girls’ Choir.
The 48-year-old Swedish clarinettist and conductor created this foundation to provide resources that can improve and enable children’s and young people’s access to music education and instruments, with a particular focus on regions where cultural resources exist, but financial means are lacking.
In addition, the foundation’s purpose will be to support the development of the classical concert form – something that Fröst constantly strives to explore through his critically acclaimed projects. Partner Buffet Crampon will assist in providing funds to people and organizations aiming to open new doors and influence the development of classical music for future audiences.
