1989 skapade Birgit sj\u00e4lv Birgit Nilsson Foundation. Ansvaret f\u00f6r stiftelsen anf\u00f6rtroddes hennes l\u00e5ngvariga v\u00e4n, Rutbert Reisch. Som ordf\u00f6rande i Birgit Nilsson Foundation fram till 2018, ledde professor Reisch organiseringen av de fyra f\u00f6rsta prisceremonier liksom ansvarade f\u00f6r investeringsportf\u00f6ljen tillsammans med styrelsen. I samband med Birgit Nilssons 100-\u00e5rsdag och jubileums\u00e5ret 2018 kurerade han ocks\u00e5 tre stora produktioner; en minnesbok utgiven p\u00e5 Verlag f\u00fcr moderne Kunst; en dokument\u00e4rfilm sl\u00e4ppt p\u00e5 DVD av C major entertainment and broadcast internationally, samt en CD-box med 31 livef\u00f6rest\u00e4llningar p\u00e5 Sony Classical.<\/p>

I samband med Birgit Nilssons 100-\u00e5rsjubileum \u00f6verf\u00f6rdes Birgit Nilsson Foundation till Sverige och Kungl. Musikaliska Akademiens beskydd. I enlighet med svensk praxis d\u00f6ptes stiftelsen om till Birgit Nilsson Stiftelsen med Akademiens preses, Susanne Ryd\u00e9n, som ny ordf\u00f6rande.\u00a0<\/p>

Kungl. Musikaliska Akademien grundades 1771 och har\u00a0till \u00e4ndam\u00e5l att fr\u00e4mja tonkonsten och musiklivet. Den skall d\u00e4rvid f\u00f6lja utvecklingen inom det svenska och internationella musiklivet, ta initiativ f\u00f6r att gagna musikkulturen samt p\u00e5\u00a0musikens\u00a0skilda omr\u00e5den st\u00f6dja utbildning, forskning och konstn\u00e4rligt utvecklingsarbete.\u00a0Birgit Nilsson invaldes som ledamot i Kungl. Musikaliska Akademien 1960 och var under hela sitt liv aktiv i arbete med att st\u00f6tta n\u00e4sta generations s\u00e5ngare.<\/p>

\u201dJag \u00e4r oerh\u00f6rt glad och hedrad \u00f6ver att Birgit Nilsson Stiftelsen nu \u00f6verf\u00f6rts till Sverige. Genom stiftelsen f\u00e5r vi en unik m\u00f6jlighet att skapa en n\u00e4ra relation med Birgit Nilssons arv och d\u00e4rigenom st\u00f6tta det svenska musiklivet. Det \u00e4r v\u00e5r ambition att vara ett st\u00f6d f\u00f6r den klassiska musiken s\u00e5v\u00e4l nationellt som internationellt.\u201d<\/em><\/p>
