Trevor Noah was the host of the show, which took place in Las Vegas for its first time at MGM Grand Garden Arena.
The premiere ceremony, which was held prior to the telecast, saw the majority of the awards presented.
During the show’s in memoriam segment, Taylor Hawkins, drummer for Foo Fighters, was remembered. It also featured songs written by Stephen Sondheim, performed by Cynthia Erivo and Leslie Odom Jr., Ben Platt, and Rachel Zegler.
The Grammy Award for Record of the Year is 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 sales or chart position.”
The Grammy Award for Best Global Music Album is an honor presented to recording artists for influential music from around the globe at the Grammy Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1958 and originally called the Gramophone Awards.
