Victor Borge Legacy Awards

Join the Museum of Danish America for an afternoon of music! The annual Victor Borge Legacy Awards piano recital began in 2011 to encourage young musicians and to honor the accomplishments of Victor Borge, a world-renowned Danish pianist who immigrated to America. High School students,who were selected through piano competitions in Omaha, Des Moines, and Southwest Iowa will perform on Victor Borge's piano, which is a part of the museum's collection. A reception of light refreshments will follow the recital. The Victor Borge Legacy Award is made possible with the support of R. James and Janet Borge Crowle of St. Michaels, Maryland, as well as the Eric & Joan Norgaard Charitable Trust and the Charles W. and Norma J. Wilson Foundation.
