The Avery Fisher Prize is an award given to American musicians for outstanding achievement in classical music. Founded by philanthropist Avery Fisher in 1974, it is regarded as one of the most significant awards for American instrumentalists. The award is decided by members of the Avery Fisher Artist Program, which is administered by the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts; artists do not apply, and nominations are secret.[1] The prize was initially accompanied by an award of $10,000;[2] it has since increased to $100,000.[3][4] The Avery Fisher Artist Program awards the Prize.[5]
