The Life of Stig 'Stikkan' Anderson, manager of ABBA and founder of Polar Music Prize (The 'Nobel Prize' of Music).

This is the official animation commissioned by the Polar Music Prize, with drawings and animation by Jenny Soep, directed by animator Irene Lopez and production by Lillasyster.

Exclusively shown on the big screen during the televised prize ceremony to a VIP studded audience including laureates Youssou N'Dour, Kaaija Saariaho, and of course the Swedish Royal Family.

'The Polar Music Prize is today one of the most prestigious and unique music prizes,
crossing over musical boundaries and awarded to individuals, groups and institutions
in recognition of exceptional achievements.

Laureates from a wide range of countries, cultures and continents have received the Prize in Stockholm from the hand of His Majesty, King Carl XVI Gustaf.'

Every year two laureates - one in contemporary music, one in classical - are each awarded the 1 million kronor prize along with an original work of art, while a selection of their most famous songs are performed by Sweden's elite in music including Robyn, First Aid Kit, Ane Brun, Ale Möller and Georg "Jojje" Wadenius.

For a list of the 44 previous winners including Sir Paul McCartney, Björk, Ennio Morricone, Patti Smith, Yo Yo Ma and the Kronos Quartet, go the following links -
