FUNDRAISING INITIATIVES Here you’ll learn about the accomplishments, innovations, and FINANCES AND Epartnerships of the past year, and meet some of the people who SUPPORTERS 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. EDUCATION PROGRAMS AND IMPACT 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 through- out 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 experi- ences 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.

  • A Conversation with Brett Dennen by Frank Goodman (1/2007, Puremusic.Com)
    A Conversation with Brett Dennen by Frank Goodman (1/2007, Puremusic.com) He's like a new kind of human being to me, this Brett Dennen. After spending time with him this week, I feel that way even stronger than after the positively confounding impression that his new CD, There's So Much More, left on me. If he'd said that he was an alien, I could have swallowed that; it would even have made sense to me. Because I'm simply not accustomed to meeting and spending time with people that appear to be so incorruptible, so odd and yet so self-assured; so, uh, enlightened and inner-directed, if I might venture all that. At 27, no less. But he's every bit of that, and there's no telling what this West Coast youth might get up to next. His tunes are hitting the Television, via Grey's Anatomy and Men In Trees, and he's out on tour with John Mayer and Sheryl Crow. Come on, now--he's got one self- released record, and one out on Dualtone Records, an astute but small label in Nashville, better known for alt-Country releases. How do you get there so fast with that little infrastructure? His music is great, first of all. His tunes are so infectious and so deep at the same time; they're a perfect blend of those usually disparate qualities. His playing is damned convincing, and his singing is like no one else. It's a very high voice, but with that inner directedness that makes it Strong.

  • Annual Report Sep 2019
    ANNUAL REPORT SEP 2019 - OCT 2020 INDEX INTRODUCTION INDEX OF EVENTS COMPLETED EVENTS DETAIL COMPLETED LIVE STREAM DETAIL COVID AFFECTED EVENTS DETAIL INDEX OF UPCOMING EVENTS NON PROFIT CULTURAL PARTNERS MAINTENANCE AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS REPORT FINANCIAL REPORT MARKETING REPORT COVID HANDBOOK To City Manager Jimmy Morales, The 19/20 season can be viewed as two distinct segments. The first six months represent major improvements and growth, followed by the sudden public closure and responses to the Covid health crisis. The year began with the renewal of the Rhythm Foundation’s management agreement. Experience and momentum gathered during the first management term were brought to bear and a season of widely diverse cultural offerings was undertaken. Long awaited capital improvements of the canopy covering and new seating system were completed in February. The season was in the middle of the busiest period in mid March when we closed the facility to the public in mid March due to the Covid health crisis. We immediately modified and adapted our operations using live streaming technologies to complete the Rhythm Foundations’s 32nd season. Emergency funding and support from the City, County and Federal government have been critical to sustaining the organization through this prolonged health crisis. We proactively engaged with community partners to identify funding, tech support and best practices for safe operations. Since going virtual in mid-March, we’ve broadcast sixteen (16) full length concerts as live streams to a collective audience of over 100,000 viewers from all over the world. The 20/21 season ahead is anchored by partnerships with the leading cultural presenting organizations in the South Florida, furthering our goal of establishing the North Beach Bandshell as a major performing arts facility in our region.
