Grammy Grants Totaling $150,000

The Grammy Foundation Grant Program will award $150,000 in grants to 11 recipients across the U.S. Funds will be given to help facilitate a range of research, archiving and preservation projects on a variety of subjects including: surveying recently discovered audio materials that potentially represent as many as 1,200 unique recordings of musical compositions by Bob Wills And His Texas Playboys; improving access to culturally and historically significant Native American and Latin American sound recordings; and testing whether music decreases pain and stress caused by medically-necessary procedures such as the heel-stick blood draw in critically-ill premature infants. The deadline each year for submitting grant applications is Oct. 1st. Applications for the 2010 cycle will be available at www.grammyfoundation/grants in June 2009.
