MISSION
The 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.
INTRODUCTION
Each 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 “forwardthinking” 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.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
Session participants, have gone on to impressive achievements in their professional careers. A few examples are:
STACEY FERREIRA (GRAMMY Camp summer 2009 and 2010) is co-founder and Vice President of MySocialCloud.com. She
secured just less than $1 million in funding for her business from Richard Branson of Virgin Records, Jerry Murdock of Insight
Venture Partners and Alex Welch of Photobucket. Today, Stacey and her brother/co-founder lead a team of nine staffers for
their service that allows users to securely store usernames and passwords and automatically login to any website, as well as
easily share, discover, store, and revisit content that people love online.
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.

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 makers.
GRAMMY Camp – SoundCheck Program
Los Angeles Chapter
The GRAMMY Camp – SoundCheck program allowed students to attend professional soundchecks featuring a wide range of emerging and established touring
artists, along with technical and industry professionals. The program aims to
give young people perspectives on music careers through conversations about
the necessary tools and education required for success. In 2012 the program
migrated to The Recording Academy and was renamed GRAMMY U SoundCheck.
GRAMMY Camp – Basic Training
GRAMMY Camp – Basic Training
is held on university campuses and
other learning environments across
the country. The program provides
students with insight into careers in
the music industry through daylong
conferences featuring workshops with
artists and industry professionals. The
continued support of the Ford Motor
Company Fund allowed us to offer
the GRAMMY Camp – Basic Training
experience in three additional cities
in 2012. Since 1988, more than
212,000 students have benefitted
from the GRAMMY Camp – Basic
Training program.

GRAMMY Camp — Jazz Session
The 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 roundtrip 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 journalists 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.

GRAMMY Signature Schools
2012 GRAMMY Signature School Recipients
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.

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 Award
This 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.

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.
2012 Preservation Grantees By Category
The GRAMMY Foundation Grant Program
The 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.

Louis Guida — Lexington, Ky. |
Awarded: $5,000
This 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: $5,000
Rare 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.

Northwest Folklife — Seattle |
Awarded: $4,000
The 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.

Scientific Research
Georgia Tech Research Corporation — Atlanta |
Awarded: $17,250
Cerebral 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:
$16,846
The 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.

Rotman Research Institute, Baycrest Centre for
Geriatric Care — Toronto, Canada | Awarded:
$17,250
This 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: $20,000
This 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: $19,500

Despite 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: $20,000
As 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 Project
The 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 guitarist 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.
Bret Michaels performs at “One Night Only: A Celebration Of The
Live Music Experience” — the 14th Annual GRAMMY Foundation
Music Preservation Project on Feb. 7, 2012, in Beverly Hills
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 Initiative
The 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.

COMMUNITY FEEDBACK
I am so thankful to you and the GRAMMY Foundation for your
“incredible
recognition. You guys have demonstrated to me that there is a light
at the end of the tunnel and that there is hope for our programs out there. I
cannot stress enough to you how helpful this grant will be to our program.
Thanks to the GRAMMY Foundation! You guys just made it possible for our
program to have another successful year.

GRAMMY Camp has changed my daughter’s life. Although she has
“known
for years that the world of music was her calling, the opportunity
to learn so much about the mechanics of the industry has added such an
important component. I believe this is a gift to all young musicians, and an
insight and education that is imperative.
— 2012 GRAMMY Camp Parent
”
wanted to send a BIG thank you to GRAMMY Camp and GRAMMY in
“theISchools!
My son’s confidence is now booming. His networking skills are
over the top and in the last six months I have watched him make a wonderful
business for himself in our community. He is constantly reaching out for new
business and looking for intern opportunities. His hunger for new knowledge
daily is amazing. I love the connections he has made through GRAMMY
Camp and how he keeps in close touch with all the artists around the world.
They thrive on each other and seem to become even more creative along the
way. Your support means the world to me.
