Landis-&-Gyr Foundation awards extraordinary contributions
Due to the pandemic, ensembles and formations in the fields of music, dance and theatre have not been able to earn any income. The Zug Foundation has now announced 23 extraordinary research and production contributions.
In view of the Covid crisis, the Landis & Gyr Foundation launched an extraordinary call for tenders for research and production contributions. Because performances are not possible until further notice, they were specifically aimed at permanent, professional ensembles and formations in the fields of music, theatre and dance, which would generate a considerable part of your income through performances under normal circumstances, the foundation writes in a press release.
