With the 11th annual Latin Grammy Awards being held next month (in Las Vegas on November 11, 2010), we decided to go looking for some videos from previous Latin Grammy events. This proved to be difficult. The event is staged and managed by the Latin Recording Academy, and they are very efficient at keeping their exclusive rights exercised. It is possible to see a couple of videos on their site (but they can’t be watched on our iPhones) – but little can be seen elsewhere on the web.
This is a fantastic annual music event and is filled with fun, glamor and beautiful people! You can get some idea from the following snippet of the closing ceremony of the 10th annual Latin Grammy held last year:

But we wanted more – so we went searching iTunes, and sure enough, found some free Latin Grammy goodies to share.
First up we have to give a plug to the video podcast channel ES Musica that provides regular music, breaking news and videos about whats happening in the Latin music world. If you scroll through their podcast you will come to their video podcast of last years Grammy (number 99 on the list – which shows there have been nearly a hundred podcasts in the 11 months since then).
This is a super quality video that introduces many of the top performing Latin Music Artists – many of who give an impromptu performance for ES Musica! Its worth a watch just to see and hear the beautiful people sing! And if you can’t understand Latin, perhaps its time you took advantage of the free Latin lessons you can download to your iPhone for easy learning!
secondly, we found this great video of the press conference held last month announcing the 11th Annual Latin Grammy Awards nominations. It is in both English and L:atin – so no need to get those free lessons for this one!:
