Rise And Fall Of The City Of Mahagonny won best Classical Album. And it says the artists are awarded.
Best Classical Album
(Award to the Artist(s) and to the Album Producer(s) if other than the Artist.)
Does this mean Patti LuPone is now a Grammy winner?

I would imagine so, but it's likely she might just get some sort of certificate rather than a literal statue.
Like she needs one of those lame Grammy awards anyway.

When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

Don't forget Audra!
And from the way I read it, they get actual Grammy statues. Why wouldn't they?

am I the only one who is quite tickled by this? I mean, who would've thought that Patti LuPone would win not one, but two Grammys for an opera performance?
and yes, we all love Audra.
