By Rachel Saslow for Willamette Week

Portland State University choir professor and All Classical Radio host Coty Raven Morris is a top-25 semifinalist for the Grammy’s 2025 Music Educator Award. This is the second year in a row that Morris has been in the running for the award for U.S. music teachers, which is presented by the Recording Academy and Grammy Museum.

About 2,400 people were nominated for the award this year.

“Coming off the nerves and excitement of last year, my students and I made a pact that no matter what happens with these kinds of acknowledgments and recognitions, we would celebrate each other’s growth as a part of our community practice, win or lose,” Morris said on social media.
