The ASCAP Foundation Leiber & Stoller Music Scholarships
Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller, writers of such hits as "Hound Dog," "Kansas City," "Jailhouse Rock," "Stand By Me," "On Broadway," and "Is That All There Is?," developed and funded this program which celebrates their 40th anniversary as collaborators. This scholarship provides assistance to young aspiring songwriters, musicians and vocalists. Two awards are given each year: one to an incoming freshman at Berklee College of Music in Boston, for which the school auditions the recipient; the second recipient is auditioned by the Young Musicians Foundation in Los Angeles.
