The Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer Awards

The Herb Alpert Foundation Herb Alpert and wife Lani Hall

Herb Alpert and wife Lani Hall

The ASCAP Foundation is the recipient of a generous multiple-year grant from The Herb Alpert Foundation to support the Foundation's Young Jazz Composer Awards Program. Established in 2002 to discover, encourage and develop the creative talents of gifted jazz composers under the age of 30, the Young Jazz Composer Awards will now carry the name of the great trumpeter and ASCAP member, Herb Alpert.

The Young Jazz Composer Awards are granted annually to talented young jazz composers who are selected through a juried national competition. Original music which has not previously earned awards or prizes is eligible. Since the program's inception, hundreds of young composers,who represent the future of jazz, have benefited from the cash awards and the recognition.

The Herb Alpert Foundation, a non-profit, private foundation established in the early 1980's, makes significant annual contributions to a range of programs in the fields of Arts, Arts Education and Compassion and Well Being. Its funding is directed toward projects in which Herb and Lani Alpert and Foundation President Rona Sebastian play an active role. The Foundation does not accept unsolicited proposals. www.herbalpertfoundation.org
