The NARAS Student Music Awards Nurture Young 
Musicians and Composers

The NARAS Student Music Awards were established in 
1989 to recognize, support and encourage exceptional 
creative abilities and original compositions in the recording 
arts and sciences at the collegiate level.
   
"The Student Music Awards, along with our Grammy In 
The Schools program, educational seminars, publications 
and our NARAS Research Grant Program, are all 
important vehicles by which the Recording Academy can 
work to not only educate tomorrow's recording industry 
professionals and audiences, but also address the serious 
crisis of music and arts education in our schools," says 
Recording Academy President Michael Greene.  "The 
Student Awards address the situation at the college level 
by fostering and encouraging the pre-professional and 
professional training of young musicians and composers."
