Grammy Trustees Award

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Grammy Trustees Award is a special award from the annual Grammy Awards , which is awarded on an irregular basis to selected artists with a continuing special influence on the music. It is given to people who have made a contribution to music during their career in the music sector without being a performer themselves. Since 1983 artists can also receive this award. It differs from the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award , which is given to performers.

The first Trustees Award was given in 1967 to the musical director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra , Georg Solti , and the British record producer for Decca Records , John Culshaw .
