It is a successor to the Annual Czechoslovak Music Award (Czech: Výroční československé hudební ceny) established in 1991 in Czechoslovakia.

Since 1997, it bears the current name, with the prize including a statuette of an angel with open wings playing a horn, designed by sculptor Jaroslav Róna.[1][2]
