Grammy Award for Best Hawaiian Music Album
The Grammy Award for Best Hawaiian Music Album was an honor presented to recording artists from 2005 to 2011 for quality Hawaiian music albums. The Grammy Awards, an annual ceremony that was established in 1958 and originally called the Gramophone Awards, are presented by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States to "honor artistic achievement, technical proficiency and overall excellence in the recording industry, without regard to album sales or chart position".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Overview )〕
Campaigning resulted in the Hawaiian category's establishment in 2005. Prior to its creation, Hawaiian music recordings were eligible for the Best World Music Album category but no Hawaiian musician or group had ever won a Grammy Award. During its seven-year history, awards were presented to Charles M. Brotman for ''Slack Key Guitar: Volume 2'', producers Daniel Ho, Paul Konwiser and Wayne Wong for ''Masters of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar: Volume One'', the same production team plus George Kahumoku, Jr. for ''Legends of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar: Live from Maui'' in 2007 followed by ''Treasures of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar'' in 2008 and ''Masters of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar: Volume 2'' in 2010, Tia Carrere and Ho for ''Ikena'', and Carrere for ''Huana Ke Aloha'' in 2011. Eligible recordings must feature the Hawaiian language on "more than half of its vocal tracks", though instrumental albums are also acceptable. Awards were presented to the engineers, mixers, and/or producers in addition to the performing artists.
Daniel Ho holds the record for the most wins, with five. Four-time recipients include Paul Konwiser and Wayne Wong as producers. George Kahumoku, Jr. earned three awards as a producer and Tia Carrere earned two as a performing artist. Ho also holds the record for the most nominations, with seven. Amy Hanaiali'i Gilliom holds the record for the most nominations without a win, with five. Six of the seven Grammy-winning albums were released through the record label Daniel Ho Creations. In 2011, the Recording Academy announced the retirement of the award category. Beginning in 2012, Hawaiian music recordings will be eligible for the Best Regional Roots Music Album category.
==Background==
For decades prior to the creation of the Best Hawaiian Music Album category, advocates for Hawaiian music took issue with recordings only being eligible for the Best World Music Album category.〔 Advocates included musicians, record labels, government officials, and the Seattle-based Pacific Northwest Chapter of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. No Hawaiian musician or group had been awarded with a Grammy prior to the establishment of the Hawaiian Music category. One obstacle for the category's creation was defining Hawaiian music and the eligibility requirements in terms of music stylings and language restrictions.〔 There has been conflict between traditional and Western-influenced Hawaiian music, mostly pertaining to use of the slack-key guitar, an instrument invented in Hawaii but commercialized by "mainlanders". According to Academy representative Bill Freimuth, the category was designed "for recordings of a more traditional nature".〔 Requiring the use of Hawaiian language on more than half of its vocal tracks encouraged the recognition of traditional music,〔 but instrumental albums (such as the compilation album honored at the 47th Grammy Awards) circumvented this requirement.〔
