An Odiferous Distinction; Introducing the Jaded Clam
Introducing the “Hubie.”
The Jaded Clam Award of Merit
Introducing an Award of Merit reserved for recognizing and honoring noteworthy accomplishments in the world of classical music.
Known simply as the “Hubie” (after the patron saint Hubertus), each statuette is sculpted in the finest jade – a gemstone of unique symbolic energy. It depicts a majestic clam-headed knight mounted on a pedestal and holding a golden hunting horn over his shoulder, ready to perform at a moment’s notice.
This honor, governed by the Cynical League of Artistic Mollusks, is arbitrarily awarded to foster and promote the advancement of the Arts and Sciences.
