Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition
Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition
Embedded Files
The Grammy Awards are American awards hosted by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States. They are usually presented in February each year. The Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition was added in 1961, but there was a brief break in giving the award from 1967 to 1984. This award is given out for a composition written in the past 25 years that was released for the first time in the previous year.
