– One of TONO's tasks is to work for the innovation of music. We do this through our ordinary work of licensing music and settling money for the use of the music to the rights holders, but also through our scholarship schemes. We know that a lot of music is created and performed every year as a direct result of our scholarships, says Deputy Director of TONO, Svein Korshamn, who assists the scholarship committee in their work.  

Criteria for applying

Applicants for The TONO scholarship must be a member of TONO, and must normally have had an average settlement in the previous three years of at least kr 5,000 per year. It is important that you thoroughly familiarize yourself with the application criteria, which you will find here.. Among other things, you will see that it is absolutely essential that you can only apply for grants that will contribute to the creation of new music. 

In order to apply for The "Young Talents" scholarship you must be a TONO member aged 17 to 23 – born between 01.01.2001 and 31.12.2007. Please note that you can only apply for one of the two scholarships.

Final application deadline is Tuesday 16 April at 15:00, but we encourage you to apply as early in the period as possible. This makes the work of handling applications more manageable for TONO's employees.
