M I S S I O NThe GRAMMY Foundation was established by The Recording Academy in 1989 to cultivate the understanding, appreciation and advancement of the contribution of recorded music to American culture — from the artistic and technical legends of the past to the still unimagined musical breakthroughs of future generations of music professionals.

I N T R O D U C T I O NEach year, the GRAMMY Foundation’s Community Services Report brings the missions of the GRAMMY Foundation — music education, preservation and advancement — to life with

accounts of programs and events held throughout the year across the country. We continue to expand our initiatives and attract diverse participants, whether they are young people applying for our GRAMMY in the Schools programs, promising law students submitting papers for our Entertainment Law Initiative (ELI) Writing Competition, or archivists, librarians, and scientific researchers submitting grant proposals to our GRAMMY Foundation Grant Program. While the term “forward-thinking” defines the GRAMMY Foundation’s approach to our strategic growth, the Community Services Report is a retrospective account of our 2012 Fiscal Year (Aug. 1–July 31) and an ideal place to look back. This year, we’ve chosen to begin with a snapshot of our program participants over several years, and we hope you enjoy hearing about where they are now.Many past GRAMMY Campers, both summer program and Jazz

GRACE KELLY (GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session 2008) just released her seventh album Grace at the tender age of 19, and has won numerous awards including: the ASCAP Young Jazz Composers Award in 2007, 2008, 2010, and 2011. She was named Jazz Artist Of The Year at the Boston Music Awards in 2008 and 2010, and Best Jazz Act for the last four consecutive years in the Phoenix Best Music Poll. She graduated from Berklee College of Music and started a teaching residency there in January 2012. She was also featured on CNN.com in a story titled “Making Of A Prodigy.”

KATIE THIROUX (GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session 2003-2006) was awarded a presidential scholarship through Berklee College of Music, is playing gigs all over California, and jazz festivals including the Berklee Beantown Jazz Festival, Monterey Jazz Festival, Münster Jazz Festival, Newport Beach Jazz Festival, Quito International Jazz Festival, and the San Miguel Allende International Jazz and Blues Festival, among others. She also released a debut album in 2011.

The majority of winners and finalists in our ELI Writing Competition are now practicing attorneys contributing to the field of entertainment law.

GOLDIE GABRIEL (ELI finalist, 2007) is the director of business and legal affairs at Warner/Chappell Music Inc. She recently successfully negotiated agreements for Dr. Dre, Sebastian Jacome, Kendrick Lamar, Lex Luger, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Marc Shaiman, and Waka Flocka Flame.

BRIAN PEARl (ELI Finalist, 2011) now serves as an associate in the entertainment litigation department at O’Melveny & Myers, LLP. Prior to that, he was a law clerk for the Honorable Stephen V. Wilson, United States District Court, Central District of California.

The recipients of our Grant Program, which will enter its 25th anniversary year in 2013, are impressive and inspiring. We’ve collected descriptions of funded projects dating back to 2000 and have featured three projects on our website at www.grammyfoundation.org. We invite you to check out these videos that tell the stories of Caffè Lena, America’s oldest continuously running folk music coffeehouse; the Herman Leonard Jazz Archive of the late photographer’s historically significant archive of 65,000 negatives; and the University of California, Los Angeles’ research project that studied the brain systems involved in emotional music perception in typically developing and autistic adolescents.

Members of the GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session perform at GRAMMY Camp –Basic Training at the University of Southern California

GRAMMY Camp — Jazz SessionThe GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session program selects top high school instrumentalists and singers for a once-in-a-lifetime experience to rehearse, perform and record together — often with GRAMMY-winning guest artists — at a series of high-profile GRAMMY Week events. The GRAMMY Foundation supports jazz as an indigenous American art form, and GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session is vital to cultivating the next generation of jazz musicians. Many former GRAMMY Camp — Jazz Session members have gone on to have successful solo careers, and have performed with artists such as Terence Blanchard, Chick Corea,

Gavin DeGraw, India.Arie, Branford Marsalis, Wynton Marsalis, and Christian Scott, as well as organizations such as the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic. The GRAMMY Foundation covers all costs for this program, including round-trip airfare to Los Angeles and room and board to ensure that each selected applicant can attend, regardless of their financial situation.

In 2012, the GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session program selected 28 high school singers and instrumentalists and two journal-ists representing 29 cities and 13 states. The GRAMMY in the Schools Media Team documents the GRAMMY Week experience for a range of GRAMMY Foundation websites and social media platforms. Highlights included a performance with GRAMMY winners Joe Lovano and Arturo O’Farrill at the Spaghettini Grill & Lounge in Seal Beach, Calif., and also with GRAMMY winners Terri Lyne Carrington, Anthony Hamilton, and Esperanza Spalding at GRAMMY In The Schools Live! at the University of Southern California›s Grand Ballroom. In addition, approximately $2 million in scholarships was offered to ensemble members by Berklee College of Music, Manhattan School of Music, New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music, and the USC Thornton School of Music.

The GRAMMY Camp – Jazz Session program is supported in part by Best Buy, Converse and the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation. Additional support is provided by Capitol Studios & Mastering (EMI Music), CenterStaging, Gibson, Guitar Center, Shure, Spaghettini Fine Dining & Entertainment, and Zildjian.

GRAMMY Signature Schools Just as the GRAMMY Award recognizes excellence in recording, the GRAMMY Signature Schools program honors top public high school music programs with cash grants. Understanding that many schools struggle to maintain a quality program — particularly in rural and urban areas — the GRAMMY Foundation established the GRAMMY Signature Schools Enterprise Award for needs-based applications in under-served communities. Since the program’s inception, 716 public high schools were selected as GRAMMY Signature Schools and have been awarded $1,156,500 in grants. The GRAMMY Signature Schools program is approved by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and MENC: The National Association for Music Education. In 2012, 18 public high schools representing 15 cities and 13 states were selected as GRAMMY Signature Schools.

GRAMMY Signature Schools Community AwardUsing the model of the GRAMMY Signature Schools program the GRAMMY Foundation has created the GRAMMY Signature Schools Community Award. Through this program the GRAMMY Foundation identifies deserving public high school music programs to receive the award and a $2,000 grant. Funding for the program has come from GRAMMY Foundation partners Best Buy and the Hot Topic Foundation.

The GRAMMY Foundation’s newly revamped www.grammyintheschools.com website is an exciting and interactive resource for students, parents, teachers and anyone interested in careers in music. It also provides applications and information for all GRAMMY in the Schools programs, in addition to student content.

Teen Substance Abuse Awareness Through Music Contest Three original music compositions that highlight the dangers and impact of drug and alcohol use were selected as the winners of the GRAMMY Foundation and MusiCares Teen Substance Abuse Awareness through Music Contest.

The composers of all three winning entries attended the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards Backstage Experience on Friday, Feb. 10, 2012, during GRAMMY open rehearsal day that included performances by Tony Bennett, Bruno Mars, Bruce Springsteen, and Carrie Underwood. The day began with a special backstage tour including the history of the show, expert technical and production information, backstage routes for the artists, and Paul McCartney’s dressing room.

All three winners were invited to a catered lunch in a private suite while watching the afternoon performances and received recognition certificates and gifts from MusiCares, the GRAMMY Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

Additionally, earlier in the day, MusiCares, the GRAMMY Foundation, NIDA, the Phoenix House, and Amanda Raham (first place winner) were recognized and honored by the Los Angeles City Council and Councilman Richard Alarcón for the efforts made in his district for teens and their struggles with addiction.

Music Educator AwardThis year, at The Recording Academy’s spring 2012 Board of Trustees meeting in Los Angeles, a Music Educator Award was established and will be first presented at the Special Merit Awards Ceremony during GRAMMY Week beginning with the 56th GRAMMY Awards in 2014. A joint partnership and presentation of The Recording Academy and the GRAMMY Foundation, this special award will recognize current educators (kindergarten through college, public and private schools) who have made a significant and lasting contribution to the field of music education and who demonstrate a commitment to the broader cause of maintaining music education in schools.

Based on 134 Schools

The GRAMMY Foundation’s preservation and advancement initiatives foster dialogue about the compelling issues facing the music industry, support projects that increase the understanding of music and its role in society, and raise public awareness of the urgent need to preserve our nation’s recorded sound legacy.

The GRAMMY Foundation Grant ProgramThe GRAMMY Foundation Grant Program, with funding provided by The Recording Academy and the GRAMMY Foundation, awards grants to organizations and individuals in two categories — scientific research studies that advance our knowledge of the impact of music on the human condition, and archive projects designed to preserve the music and recorded sound heritage of the Americas for future generations. The Grant Program continues to garner more qualified applications each year, resulting in our abilities to fund outstanding, meaningful, and diverse projects.

In 2012 grants were awarded to 18 recipients in the United States and Canada. Research projects include a study that will investigate the effects of rhythmic auditory-induced therapies to improve upper-extremity function in children with cerebral palsy; and preservation and archiving initiatives include a project that will protect an endangered collection of reel-to-reel tapes of concerts, rehearsals, and personal recording sessions by legendary pianist/composer Dave Brubeck. In 2012 the GRAMMY Foundation awarded $250,000 in funding.

Louis Guida — Lexington, Ky. | Awarded: $5,000This project will assess, prioritize, and prepare material from a significant collection of African American gospel and blues from Memphis and the Mississippi Delta for digitizing and preservation. The collection, housed at Indiana University Bloomington’s Black Film Center/Archive, includes field recordings, film footage and photographs from a five-year project led by director Louis Guida that resulted in the international award-winning 1992 documentary Saturday Night, Sunday Morning.

Irka Mateo — Brooklyn, N.Y.; Santiago, Dominican Republic | Awarded: $5,000Rare recordings of Dominican folk music played for popular religious events comprise primary source material that expands and continues on previous work done by Fradique Lizardo (1930–1997), housed at the Centro León. The goal of this project is to initiate preservation consultation efforts that focus on music recordings celebrating Liborio Mateo, a central religious leader and healer that lived in San Juan de la Maguana. www.irkamateo.org

Northwest Folklife — Seattle | Awarded: $4,000The Northwest Folklife Festival’s collection of live audio recordings documents 40 years of the musical and cultural heritage of the Pacific Northwest. The project will assess the collection and design a multistage plan to stabilize, preserve and catalog those thousands of performances. Northwest Folklife’s goal is to publicize the collection and make these historical records available to the public via its website and at regional repositories. www.nwfolklife.org

Scientific ResearchGeorgia Tech Research Corporation — Atlanta | Awarded: $17,250Cerebral palsy is prevalent in one in 303 children in the United States. Approximately one-half sustain upper-extremity dysfunction. Using rhythmicauditory cues to improve upper-extremity function has shown promise with adult post-stroke patients. There is limited evidence of such music-based intervention in pediatric physical therapy. This project will investigate the effects of rhythmic auditory-induced interventions for children with cerebral palsy. humanslab.ece.gatech.edu

The Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital — Columbus, Ohio | Awarded: $16,846The goal of this project is to create a healing environment through auditory stimulation within the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit system that improves behavioral development and reduces length of stay in medically fragile babies. Through the use of technology, this innovative program allows parents to have a presence at their baby’s bedside even when they are away from the hospital. www.nationwidechildrens.org

Rotman Research Institute, Baycrest Centre for Geriatric Care — Toronto, Canada | Awarded: $17,250This project will examine the potential benefits of musical training on speech processing in elderly adults. Brain imaging techniques will be used to assess neural activity at multiple tiers of the aging auditory system and its correspondence to perception during active speech listening. Specifically, the project will assess the possibility that musicianship counteracts the negative declines in hearing ability and speech understanding that commonly emerge late in life. research.baycrest.org

University of Miami — Coral Gables, Fla. | Awarded: $20,000This project will explore and quantify infants’ ability to entrain spontaneous movement with rhythmic auditory understanding of motor development, and inform therapeutic intervention for deficits in attention, speech, and extremity movement.

Western University — London, Canada | Awarded: $19,500Despite the amazing level of shared neural machinery between humans and nonhuman primates, only humans appear to sense and react to musical rhythm. This ability has played a major role in the development of human culture for millennia. The aim of this project is to understand the neural processes that underpin our uniquely human ability to sense the beat in rhythmic sequences by comparing brain responses across species with the most advanced magnetic resonance imaging methods available. www.jessicagrahn.com

Benjamin Zendel — Montreal, Canada Awarded: $20,000As we age it becomes more difficult to understand speech in noisy environments because of changes in how the brain processes sound. It has been recently demonstrated that this age-related decline is mitigated in lifelong musicians, likely due to neuro-plasticity induced by musical training. The purpose of this project is to determine if music lessons in older adults can improve the ability to understand speech in noise by improving the way the brain processes sound.

The Music Preservation ProjectThe Music Preservation Project is produced each year during GRAMMY Week to heighten public awareness of our work in protecting our cultural legacy. In 2012 “One Night Only: A Celebration Of The Live Music Experience” — the 14th Annual GRAMMY Foundation Music Preservation Project — sponsored by Seagate, celebrated renowned performers and key players behind the scenes and focused on the history, cultural contribution, and evolution of live concerts — from star-making clubs such as the Apollo Theatre to pioneering movements such as Live Aid and Woodstock. Hosted by television personality/entrepreneur Sharon Osbourne and GRAMMY winning guitar-ist Steve Vai, the evening featured live musical performances and historical footage. Performers included The Colburn Orchestra, Robert Cray, A Fine Frenzy, Dave Koz, Jonny Lang, Ledisi, LP, Shelby Lynne, Marc Martel, Beverly McClellan, Bret Michaels, Mavis Staples, and Trombone Shorty.

The GRAMMY Foundation was instrumental in writing and successfully passing the National Recording Preservation Act. This legislation created a National Recording Preservation Board that works with the Librarian of Congress and the public to select entries for the National Recording Registry, ensuring the preservation of these designated historic recordings. Since the passage of the act in 2000 and its reauthorization in 2008, 300 recordings have been added to the registry.

The Entertainment Law InitiativeThe Entertainment Law Initiative is comprised of three components: a legal seminar series, a national scholarship writing competition for law students, and a high-profile luncheon during GRAMMY Week that is attended by students, music attorneys, executives, and members of The Recording Academy. Since its inception in 1999, the Entertainment Law Initiative has provided $154,000 in scholarships to aspiring law students.

The Entertainment Law Initiative’s Annual Scholarship Luncheon enjoyed significant success in 2012. Attendance increased to more than 450 and revenue topped the $200,000 mark.

Spotify CEO and founder Daniel Ek gave the keynote address. Noted entertainment attorney and former MusiCares Board Chair John Branca received the ELI Service Award.

ELI also continued its writing competition workshops at law schools around the country. The work-shops are designed to demystify the process of entering the competition, increase submissions and awareness, and provide interaction with top entertainment attorneys.

ELI’s Legal Seminar Series conducted panel presentations at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in 2012, as well as DePaul University in Chicago.
