Eugene Lang Memorial Award

In memory of Eugene Lang (1920 - 2000) and to honour his love for, and his dedication to, classical music in the Quinte region, the Eugene Lang Memorial Fund was established by Mr. Lang’s family to encourage and promote classical music education projects in schools in Hastings and Prince Edward Counties.

Available to QAC members and member groups, an award, based on the earnings accumulated in the fund during the preceding year, is presented annually in March, the month in which Mr. Lang was born.  Projects such as live performances, lectures, workshops, master classes, etc. will qualify.

Eugene Lang possessed, not just an interest in classical music and his community, but a passion.  He devoted many hours of volunteer service as a board member of the QAC, an elected education trustee, a journalist, broadcaster, speaker, announcer, commentator…. the list goes on and on.

His contribution to the arts and to Quinte was extraordinary and this award will help carry on his work.
