Los Angeles, CA (February 6, 2023)—The Recording Academy announced the winners of the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, including those categories honoring recording and mastering engineers, mixers, remixers and record producers, on Sunday, Feb. 5.
One of the highlights of the night was Beyoncé’s record-breaking 32nd career win, her fourth of the night, which put her ahead of conductor Georg Solti, who had long held the record (he died in 1997). Beyoncé went into the competition with the most nominations, nine, which took her career total to 88 — a tie with husband Jay-Z for the most nominations received by a musician in Grammy history.
This year’s Grammy awards telecast marked the return of the awards ceremony to its familiar format in Los Angeles at the Crypto.com arena (formerly the Staples Center). Last year, the awards decamped to Las Vegas and were delayed until April due to the coronavirus pandemic.
