GRAMMY Week — a week-long celebration of Recording Academy events that range from salutes to classical and jazz music to the MusiCares Person of the Year charity dinner and performance, which culminates with the GRAMMY Awards ceremony — has become a rich tradition of culture and arts events as anticipated as the GRAMMY Awards itself.
These awards recognize contributions and activities of significance to the recording field that fall outside the framework of the GRAMMY Awards categories, and include the Lifetime Achievement Award, the Trustees Award, the GRAMMY Hall Of Fame Award, the Technical GRAMMY Award, and the GRAMMY Legend Award.
