E
ach year, the GRAMMY Foundation gathers the stories of the past
fiscal year (Aug. 1 – July 31) in our Community Services Report.
Here you’ll learn about the accomplishments, innovations, and
partnerships of the past year, and meet some of the people who
have inspired our work. Since 2007, we’ve told our stories of the past
year’s achievements in an online version of our report — to both conserve
resources and to enliven the account with interactive features. We hope
you enjoy what you learn about the GRAMMY Foundation, invite you to
support our work, and welcome your feedback.
Mission
The GRAMMY Foundation was established by The Recording Academy
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.

GRAMMY® in the Schools
Under the banner of GRAMMY in the Schools, the GRAMMY Foundation produces and
supports music education programs for high school students across the country throughout the year to help inspire the next generation of music and its makers. The Foundation
offers half-day and daylong programs — GRAMMY Camp – SoundCheck and GRAMMY
Camp – Basic Training — designed to give high school students information and experiences centered on careers in the music industry. GRAMMY Camp and GRAMMY Camp–
Jazz Session are residential programs that bring young people together for interactive,
instructive working sessions with artists and music industry professionals. In addition,
our GRAMMY Signature Schools initiatives for high music programs. All aspects of this
work are detailed below. The GRAMMY Foundation’s GRAMMY in the Schools website
provides applications and information for GRAMMY in the Schools programs, in addition
to student content. In 2011, the website was redesigned and relaunched to make it a more
exciting and interactive resource for teens, parents, teachers, and anyone interested in
careers in music.

GRAMMY Camp – SoundCheck
allows students to attend the professional sound checks of a broad
range of emerging and established
touring artists, along with technical
and industry professionals, to give
young people perspectives on music careers through conversations
about the specifics of their jobs and
the necessary tools and education
required for success.

across the country. It provides students with insight into careers in music through daylong conferences
offering workshops with artists and industry professionals.

GRAMMY Camp is an interactive residential summer program for high school students that focuses
on all aspects of the commercial music industry. The curriculum is led by core faculty, guest artists, and
music professionals, across a range of career tracks. GRAMMY Camp covers all aspects of creating,
performing, and recording, and it culminates in media projects, recordings, and/or performances.
In the summer of 2011, the 8th annual GRAMMY Camp was held in Los Angeles at the University
of Southern California, and for the first time ever GRAMMY Camp expanded to offer an additional
session in New York at the Converse Rubber Tracks studio in Brooklyn. GRAMMY Camp LA
culminated in a showcase concert at the historic El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles while GRAMMY Camp
NY culminated in a launch party held at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square. The program selected
111 high school students from 93 cities and 34 states for this unique music industry experience.
GRAMMY Camp is supported in part by AEG, ASCAP Foundation Irving Caesar Fund, Avid Best Buy,
BET, Coca-Cola, CenterStaging, Converse, the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation, Guitar Center

Esperanza Spalding performs at
Spaghettini Grill with members
of the 2011 Jazz Session.
The GRAMMY Camp – Jazz
Session program selects top high school
instrumentalists and singers and brings
them to the host city of the GRAMMY
Awards for a once-in-a-lifetime experience
where they rehearse, perform, and record
together — often with GRAMMY Awardwinning guest artists — at a series of
high profile GRAMMY Week events. The
GRAMMY Foundation feels an imperative
to support jazz as an indigenous American
art form. Many former members of the
Jazz Sessions have gone on have their own
successful solo careers, and to perform
with notable artists including Terence
Blanchard, Chick Corea, Gavin DeGraw,
India.Arie, Branford Marsalis, Wynton
Marsalis, and Christian Scott, as well as
noted organizations such as the Lincoln
Center Jazz Orchestra and the New York
Philharmonic Orchestra. The GRAMMY
Foundation covers all costs for this program, so that all selected students may
participate.
In 2011, highlights included an appearance on the 53rd annual GRAMMY Awards
telecast with Matthew Morrison, Neil Portnow and Esperanza Spalding, again sharing
the stage with Spalding at Spaghettini Grill, and with Sara Bareilles at GRAMMY in the
Schools Live! at the University of Southern California’s Grand Ballroom. The program, in
its 19th year, selected 30 high school singers and instrumentalists representing 30 cities
and 12 states. In addition, nearly $2 million in scholarships is offered to many ensemble
members by Berklee College of Music, Manhattan School of Music, New School for
Jazz and Contemporary Music, and USC Thornton School of Music.
This program is supported in part by Capitol Studios & Mastering (EMI Music
Group), the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation, Guitar Center Hollywood, Shure,
SmartMusic, Spaghettini Italian Grill and Lounge, and Zildjian.

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 Foundation established the GRAMMY Signature Schools
Enterprise Award for needs-based applicants in under-served communities. Since the program’s inception, 698 public
high schools were selected as GRAMMY Signature Schools and awarded $1,053,500 in grants. GRAMMY Signature
Schools is approved by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and MENC: The National Association
for Music Education. In 2011, 36 public high schools representing 34 cities and 19 states were selected as GRAMMY
Signature Schools.
Beginning in August 2010, the GRAMMY Foundation launched a new extension of GRAMMY Signature Schools called
the GRAMMY Signature Schools Community Award in partnership with Best Buy Mobile. To celebrate the opening
of new Best Buy Mobile stores, the GRAMMY Foundation identified deserving public high school music programs to
receive the Community Award and a financial grant of $2,000 made possible by Best Buy Mobile. During the past year,
almost 100 schools received the GRAMMY Signature Schools Community Award. Total dollars granted were in excess
of $200,000. In addition, Ice Cube and Kid Rock made special appearances at their respective high schools to join us in
presentations. Both artists were so moved by their participation that they generously contributed their own funds to the
schools as well. We extend our thanks and appreciation to Best Buy Mobile for their commitment to music education
and support of the GRAMMY Foundation.

Teen Substance Abuse Awareness through Music Contest
Our Healthy Essentials programs were augmented this year by the “Teen Substance
Abuse Awareness through Music Contest” created to celebrate National Drug Facts
Week. In partnership with the National Institute on Drug Abuse and the GRAMMY
Foundation, the contest was open to teens ages 14–18. Entrants were asked to
compose or create an original song and/or music video that explores, encourages,
and celebrates a healthy lifestyle or accurately depicts a story about drug abuse.
Composers of all three winning entries had the opportunity to attend a 53rd Annual
GRAMMY Awards “Backstage Experience,” a special backstage tour while artists
rehearsed for the live GRAMMY Awards show on Feb. 13, 2011, in Los Angeles.

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 Grant Program, with funding generously provided by The Recording Academy, 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 that designed to preserve the music and recorded
sound heritage of the Americas for future generations. The Grant Program is seeing
more and better qualified applicants each year, and this results in our abilities to
fund outstanding, meaningful, and diverse projects. In 2011 — the grant program’s
24th year — grants were awarded to 15 recipients in the United States, Canada
and the Dominican Republic. Research projects include a study that will test rehabilitation therapy that uses music to cue and facilitate arm movements in people
recovering from stroke; and preservation and archiving initiatives include a project
that will protect a long-lost collection of aluminum discs containing more than 100
hours of live jazz performances from the swing era and another that will identify and
catalogue the most fragile reel-to-reel recordings of live performances and related
oral histories in the collection of the oldest continuously running folk music coffeehouse, Caffè Lena.

This study will improve the understanding of the role
that musical training plays in sharpening how the
nervous system functions within everyday listening
environments. Specifically, the researchers will
determine how childhood music training tunes brain
mechanisms responsible for processing speech in
noisy listening environments, such as encountered in a
bustling classroom.

This project will test the efficacy of a rehabilitation
therapy that utilizes musical auditory feedback to cue
and facilitate arm and hand movements in people with
stroke. Brain imaging techniques will also be used to
assess changes in brain activity and connections that
may underlie behavioral improvements. Results may
support a new therapeutic intervention in the treatment
of stroke patients with impaired arm function.

Awarded: $20,000
| New York
This project will use two complementary neuroimaging
methods to assess 1) how the brain processes pitch
changes, 2) how the brain uses pitch changes to control
vocalization, and 3) the effects of auditory and vocal
training on the brain. Characterizing the anatomical
and physiological brain mechanisms is essential for
understanding how pitch is processed in healthy and
disordered communication and singing.

Scientific research has convincingly showed that musical
memory is spared both in normal and pathological
aging, specifically in Alzheimer’s dementia. New
exciting directions involve the notion that music elicits
memories of the past. This project will examine the
role of familiarity and emotion in supporting these
memories and to explore, through neuroimaging
techniques, probable brain sites associated with music
recall.

Awarded: $5,000
Musicians assess the psycho-acoustical properties of
sounds differently than do non-musicians. This study
asks music students trained on fixed-, continuous-, or
non-pitched instruments to rate the roughness of dyads
(two simultaneous tones) with the aim of quantifying
how musical instrument training affects perceptual
processing. The findings will extend previous study on
the origins of sensory and music-theoretic consonance
vs. dissonance.

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 passage of the act in 2000 and its reauthorization in 2008, 300 recordings have been added to
the registry.
Entertainment Law Initiative
The Entertainment Law Initiative is comprised of three components: a legal seminar series, a
national scholarship essay 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 $143,000 in
scholarships to aspiring law students.
The Entertainment Law Initiative’s Annual Scholarship Luncheon enjoyed significant success in 2011.
Attendance increased to more than 450 and revenue topped the $200,000 mark.

“Words cannot describe the impact that GRAMMY Camp – Basic Training has had on me. When I
was applying to Camp, I did not know what to expect. All I knew was that I had to find a way to be a
part of this program. Once I got to Camp, I had no idea that in just 10 days I could have a completely
different outlook on everything, my aspiration as a singer and even the person I am. I left Camp with
so many new ideas, connections and new pieces of advice that I will always treasure. I was able to
learn how to adapt and work with others better than I ever expected. I learned to be patient and to be
open to all ideas, to be ready to handle any situation that I am put in. At Camp I had so many amazing
opportunities, being able to record, compose, collaborate, and perform with so many inspiring people,
instructors and peers. Thank you so much for dedicating so much time and effort, to a program that
truly has the power to change lives.”
— 2011 GRAMMY Camp

Basic Training Camper Ryley Mueller
reporting during LA Guest Professional
Day at USC.
“I just wanted to truly and sincerely thank each and every staff member of GRAMMY Camp and along
with the people who donated the scholarship funds. Without them, my daughter would not have had
this incredible experience. I can’t seem to find the right words to describe exactly what this experience
has done for her, but it was truly life changing. This has instilled confidence in her and it has showed
her how much more she is capable of and how much more creativity she has inside herself. It has been
beneficial and therapeutic on so many different levels. She has met so many wonderful people. I can’t
thank you all enough.”
