M I S S I O NThe GRAMMY Foundation was established by The Recording Academy in 1988 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 unimag-ined musical breakthroughs of future generations of music professionals.
I N T R O D U C T I O NThe GRAMMY Foundation’s Community Services Report brings the programs of the GRAMMY Foundation — music education, preservation and advancement — to life with accounts of programs and events held throughout the year across the country. Each year, 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 Writing Competition, or archivists, librarians, and scientific researchers submit-ting grant proposals to our GRAMMY Foundation Grant Program. While the term “forward-thinking” captures the GRAMMY Foundation’s strategy for our programmatic growth, the Community Services Report is a look back at our 2013 Fiscal Year (Aug. 1–July 31) and an opportunity to reflect on our achievements. 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 GRAMMY Camp alumni, both summer program and GRAMMY Camp — Jazz Session participants, have gone on to make impressive achievements in their professional careers. A few examples are:
Kristen Castro (GRAMMY Camp, 2010 and 2011) has released an EP titled The Heart Palette, produced her first music video for the song “Step,” filmed web series for VEVO titled “You Play Like a Girl” and “The Tavern,” and is performing across California.
Lisa Nicole (GRAMMY Camp, 2006) has opened Tampa Bay Performing Arts Academy in Palm Harbor, Fla. She teaches musical theater and voice to students ranging in ages 5 to 18 years old. Her academy works with Music Theater International to license official Disney productions and perform them in Tampa. In the past her students have won the Excellence in Music Award from the Junior Theater Festival. In addition to her work with youth, Nicole also has recorded two albums and is a voting member of The Recording Academy. She has aspirations to one day produce and write a children’s musical.
Billy Norris (GRAMMY Camp — Jazz Session, 2006) is currently musical director and guitarist for GRAMMY-nominated artist Gavin DeGraw.
Sergeant Travis Werling (GRAMMY Camp, 2010) recently returned from one year deployment to Afghanistan as a bassist for the 82nd Airborne rock band Green Light Go. He spent the year traveling around the war zone provid-ing entertainment for NATO forces from all over the world. He also taught music lessons and performed for citizens and diplomats in Afghanistan. Werling is currently involved with entertaining and providing music therapy for wounded warriors at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio. He is performing public outreach concerts with his new band, 323D Fort Sams Own, at Fort Sam in Houston.
The majority of winners and finalists in our ELI Writing Competition are now practicing attorneys contributing to the field of entertainment law. Corey Field (ELI Writing Competition winner, 2000) is counsel in the intellectual property department, and a member of the entertainment and media, intellectual property litigation, and trademark and copy-right groups at Ballard Spahr LLP. He is the principal author of the treatise “Entertainment Law: Forms And Analysis,” published by Law Journal Press, New York, and from 2010-2012 he served as president of the Copyright Society of the USA. Matthew “Mac” Reynolds (ELI Writing Competition winner, 2008) currently serves as an attorney at Reynolds & Associates as well as an artist manager for Reynolds Management. His most notable clients are 56th GRAMMY winners for Best Rock Performance Imagine Dragons and GRAMMY-nominated pop/rock band the Killers.
The recipients of our Grant Program are impressive and inspiring. Descriptions of funded projects dating back to 2000 are available at www.grammyfoundation.org.

Music Educator AwardThe Music Educator Award was established to recognize current educators (kindergarten through college, public and private schools) who have made a significant and lasting contribution to the field of music education. This person also makes a commitment to promoting the broader cause of maintaining music education in the schools. A joint partnership and presentation of The Recording Academy and the GRAMMY Foundation, this special award was announced on the 55th Annual GRAMMY Awards by President/CEO of The Recording Academy and GRAMMY Foundation Neil Portnow, TV and radio host/producer and GRAMMY Foundation Honorary Board Chair Ryan Seacrest, and eight-time GRAMMY winner Justin Timberlake. The award is open to current U.S. music teachers and anyone is invited to submit a nomination — students, parents, friends, colleagues, community members, school deans, and administrators. Teachers are also able to nominate themselves. All nominees will be notified and invited to fill out a full application. Information is available at grammymusicteacher.com. The application process will adjust each year to allow the broad array of effective teaching styles and methods used in the discipline to be recognized and awarded.
Each year, one recipient will be selected from 10 finalists, and will be recognized for his/her remarkable impact on students’ lives. The recipient will be flown to Los Angeles to accept the award and receive a $10,000 honorarium at the Special Merit Awards Ceremony & Nominees Reception that recognizes recipients of the Lifetime Achievement Award, Trustees Award and Technical GRAMMY Award during GRAMMY Week. The recipient will also attend the annual GRAMMY Awards ceremony and a range of GRAMMY Foundation events. The nine finalists will receive a $1,000 honorarium and the schools of all 10 finalists will also receive matching grants. The honorariums and grants provided to the finalists and schools are made possible by the generosity and support of the GRAMMY Foundation’s Education Champions Box Tops For Education, Converse, Disney Performing Arts, Ford Motor Company Fund, Journeys, Microsoft Surface, and Universal Music Group.
Information is available at www.grammymusicteacher.com.
GRAMMY Camp — Basic TrainingGRAMMY Camp — Basic Training is held on university campuses and other venues 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.
MUSIC EDUCATOR AWARD
In 2013 the GRAMMY Foundation received more than 32,000 nominations
between the award’s announcement during the 55th Annual GRAMMY Awards on
Feb. 10, 2013, and the deadline of April 15. That equates to roughly
493 nominations a day or a nomination every 2.9 minutes
for 65 days straight.

GRAMMY CampGRAMMY 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 wide range of career tracks. GRAMMY Camp covers all aspects of creating, perform-ing and recording music, and culminates in media projects, recordings and/or showcase performances.
In summer 2013 the ninth annual installment of GRAMMY Camp was held at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles and at Converse Rubber Tracks studio in Brooklyn, N.Y. GRAMMY Camp Los Angeles culminated with a launch party concert at the El Rey Theatre, while GRAMMY Camp New York wrapped with a launch party at the New School’s Auditorium. In 2013 the program selected 99 high school students from 87 cities and 27 U.S. states for
this unique music industry experience. In addition, through a partnership with GUCCI, four international students from Japan and England attended GRAMMY Camp in Los Angeles, bringing the total number of campers to 103.
The 2013 session of GRAMMY Camp was supported in part by AEG, ASCAP Foundation Irving Caesar Fund, Audio Technica, Avid, BET, Black River Entertainment, CenterStaging, Coca-Cola, Converse, Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation, Guitar Center, JBL by Harman, KCRW-FM, Kroesche Music Group, Line 6, Les Paul Foundation, Mackie, M-Audio, the New School, The Recording Academy, Roland, Shure, Universal Music Group, and USC Thornton School of Music.

8GRAMMY 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 roundtrip airfare to Los Angeles and room and board to ensure that each selected applicant can attend, regardless of their financial situation.
In 2013 GRAMMY Camp — Jazz Session selected 30 high school singers and instrumentalists and two journalists representing 31 cities and 15 states. The GRAMMY in the Schools Media Team — comprised of former GRAMMY Camp journalism campers — documented the GRAMMY Week experience for a range of GRAMMY Foundation websites and social media platforms. Highlights included a performance with GRAMMY winner Arturo Sandoval at Spaghettini Fine Dining and Entertainment in Seal Beach, Calif., and also with GRAMMY winner Juanes at GRAMMY In The Schools Live! at the University of Southern California’s Grand Ballroom. In addition, nearly $2 million in scholarships were 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 Camp — Jazz Session 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 and Entertainment, and Zildjian.

Teen Substance Abuse Awareness Through Music Contest In 2013, the MusiCares and GRAMMY Foundation’s Teens Make Music Contest offered a great opportunity for aspiring teen musicians to use the healing and uplifting medium of music to help spread messages about issues surrounding addiction. The contest asks young musicians to create original music and/or music videos that celebrate healthy and inspirational living, or accurately depict the dark side of drug abuse. The first–place winner received a cash award of $500. The second–place winner received a cash prize of $250 and other prizes. The third–place winner received $100 and other prizes. All three winners had the opportunity to attend the 55th Annual GRAMMY Awards backstage experience, which included a GRAMMY rehearsal and a guided tour of the Village studios. These winners had their original compositions posted on the MusiCares and GRAMMY Foundation’s GRAMMY website and the Vans Warped Tour website. In addition, prizes included iPads with the GarageBand app and an opportunity to release a record with Clarity Way, a drug and alcohol rehab facility in Hanover, Pa.
GRAMMY Signature Schools Community AwardJust as the GRAMMY Award recognizes excellence in recording, the GRAMMY Signature Schools program honors top public high school music programs with cash grants. Created in 1998, the GRAMMY Signature Schools program recognizes the top U.S. public high schools that make an outstanding commitment to music education during an academic school year. This application-based program has grown to include several categories: the top schools are designated Gold recipients. The best of the Gold recipients is named the National GRAMMY Signature School. The remaining schools are named GRAMMY Signature Schools. Understanding that many schools struggle to maintain a quality program the GRAMMY Foundation established the GRAMMY Signature Schools Enterprise Award for high-needs schools in economically-underserved communities. Since the program’s inception, 734 public high schools were selected as GRAMMY Signature Schools and have been awarded $1,290,500 in grants. A total of 10 schools were selected in 2013 with grants totaling $56,000. The GRAMMY Signature Schools program is approved by the National Association of Secondary School Principals and MENC: The National Association for Music Education.
Using the model of the GRAMMY Signature Schools program, the GRAMMY Foundation has also cre-ated the GRAMMY Signature Schools Community Award. Through this program, the GRAMMY Foundation partners with our corporate sponsors to identify deserving public high school music programs to receive the award and a $2,000 grant. Unlike the other GRAMMY Signature Schools programs, the Community Award pro-gram is not application-based. In 2013 funding for the program was provided by GRAMMY Foundation partners Best Buy and the Hot Topic Foundation and 103 schools received this award, with grants totaling $206,000.
GRAMMY SIGNATURE SCHOOLS
Six high school music programs across the country in economically underserved areas
were recipients of the GRAMMY Signature School Enterprise Award. With the $5,500
grant, these schools could now afford: • A bus for field trips or music festivals
• Sheet music of four new orchestra pieces for their choir or band• Three new trumpets
• Four clarinets• Three electric guitars

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 individu-als 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 2013 grants totaling more than $200,000 were awarded to 14 recipients in the United States to help facilitate a range of research, archiving and preserva-tion projects on a variety of subjects. Research projects included a study that will investigate a potential core deficit in rhythm processing in developmental stuttering, combining behavioral and neuroimaging studies in children with studies in songbirds. Preservation and archiving initiatives included a project that will preserve and provide access to a unique organ recording collection of master organ player rolls and noteworthy arrangements produced in the 1920s; and an effort to preserve and digitize the audiovisual collections of imperiled media of the Andrews Sisters, Bing Crosby, Benny Goodman, and Bob Hope, among others.
The recipients of our Grant Program, which will enter its 27th anniversary year in 2014, are impressive and inspiring. We’ve collected descriptions of funded projects dating back to 2000 and have featured three projects in the videos below. Please take a moment to view the stories of Caffé 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.
GRANT PROGRAMIn 2013 more than $89,000 in grants,
across four states, was awarded for scientific research on music’s impact on the human condition. Of this, more than
$35,000 was granted to researching music’s impact on childhood development.

John Devin McAuley — East Lansing, Mich. | Awarded: $19,500Stuttering affects 3 million Americans. Children with chronic stuttering face lifelong struggles that can impact academic achievement and lead to negative psychosocial consequences. The project goal is to investigate a potential core deficit in rhythm processing in developmental stuttering, combining behavioral and neuroimaging studies in children with studies in songbirds, which under controlled conditions can be induced to stutter. psychology.msu.edu/TAPlab/index.htm

Scientific Research (continued)
Regents of the University of California, University of California, San Diego — La Jolla, Calif. | Awarded: $19,860The SIMPHONY project is a unique collaboration designed to understand how music training affects children’s brains and the development of general cognitive skills like language and attention. It is the first study of its kind and will track 60 children annually starting at ages 5–10 as they engage in ensemble music training (versus nonmusic controls) using an extensive battery of neural and behavioral testing. www.chd.ucsd.edu/research/simphony-study.html
University of Washington — Seattle | Awarded: $10,000Research shows that musical experience can enhance and promote healthy child development. Synchronization between players is a key aspect of playing music together. Synchrony can also strengthen bonds and affiliation between individuals. The dual aims of the proposed project are to: (a) determine whether children prefer synchronous as opposed to asynchronous rhythms and (b) examine whether children’s preference for synchrony

is enhanced for musical interactions involving pitch, harmony and melody. We expect a musical context to increase the difference between synchronized and asynchronous interactions, illustrating music’s role as a vehicle for positive interpersonal interaction. ilabs.washington.edu
Pitzer College — Claremont, Calif. | Awarded: $19,900To what extent do music and language share neural resources? We propose to evaluate music perception and cognition in a group of 40 aphasic individuals whose language deficits and brain lesions are well characterized. Using voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping, we will identify the areas of the brain that are most essential to the perception of melody, harmony, and rhythm, and compare these with similar VLSM analyses of language in the same participants. www.pitzer.edu/academics/faculty/justus/index.asp

GRAMMY Foundation Legacy ConcertThe Music Preservation Project is produced each year during GRAMMY Week to heighten public awareness of our work in protecting our cultural legacy. In 2013 “Play It Forward: A Celebration Of Music’s Evolution And Influencers” — the 15th Annual GRAMMY Foundation Music Preservation Project — celebrated the legacy of renowned performers and the music that’s influenced both a nation and generations of performers. The presentation featured a photo montage of a family tree of influencers, live musical performances and key excerpts of footage from the GRAMMY Foundation’s Living Histories archive and GRAMMY.com’s 5 Questions With series. Performers included GRAMMY winners Yolanda Adams, Rodney Crowell, Lupe Fiasco, Emmylou Harris, LeAnn Rimes, and Dionne Warwick; GRAMMY nominees Ed Sheeran; Michael Einziger of Incubus; and Kenny Wayne Shepherd; as well as Lianne La Havas, Guy Sebastian, Ann Marie Simpson, and George Thorogood & the Destroyers. “Play It Forward” was sponsored by Seagate.
The GRAMMY Living Histories ProgramThe GRAMMY Living Histories program preserves on visual media the life stories of key recording industry professionals and visionaries who helped create the history of recorded sound.
This footage is utilized by the GRAMMY Foundation and its partner organizations to develop educational video programs. To date, the Foundation has completed more than 200 interviews with artists, producers, executives, and technology pioneers. In 2013 Living Histories interviews were captured with legendary blues musicians Buddy Guy and Eddy Clearwater, and country music artist Connie Smith.
