Thomas Hampson Fund Grants for Research and Publication on Classic Song

About this program

The American Musicological Society (AMS) offers the Thomas Hampson Fund Grants to support research and publication on classic song, encompassing American song, contemporary song, and the use of new technologies for promoting this genre. Applicants may submit proposals at any stage of their research, including graduate students, independent scholars, and faculty, with no requirement for AMS membership. Projects should focus on classic song in all its contexts and aim for publication, whether in traditional or digital formats. Applications must include a prospectus, budget, CV, and two recommendation letters, submitted via the Submittable platform.
