==Honours and awards== In December 1980 ''Contemporary Keyboard'' magazine announced, in their Fifth Annual Readers' Poll, that Emerson had—for the fifth time in a row—captured first place in two categories – '"Overall Best Keyboardist" and "Best Multi-Keyboardist". The five-time wins put Emerson in their "Gallery Of The Greats" for both categories. The same poll also saw Emerson take "Best Rock Organist" for the fourth time and "Best Lead Synthesist".<ref>{{Cite magazine|date=December 1980|title=Fifth Annual Poll Results|magazine=[[Keyboard (magazine)|Contemporary Keyboard]] | publisher=GPI Publications | location=[[San Francisco, California]]| page=11}}</ref> In March 2010 Emerson received the annual [[Frankfurter Musikpreis|Frankfurt Music Prize]] for his achievements, awarded in [[Frankfurt]] on the eve of the annual [[Musikmesse Frankfurt|Musikmesse]] fair.<ref>{{cite news|last=Bae |first=David |date=19 March 2010 |title=The Frankfurt Music Prize 2010 Goes to Keith Emerson |url=http://us.aving.net/news/view.php?articleId=150480 |publisher=Aving Global Network |access-date=13 March 2016 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160313233539/http://us.aving.net/news/view.php?articleId=150480 |archive-date=13 March 2016 }}</ref> In September 2013 Orchestra Kentucky of [[Bowling Green, Kentucky|Bowling Green]] gave Emerson their Lifetime Achievement Award in the Arts and Humanities "for his role in bringing classical music to the masses".<ref name=malloyp2 /><ref>{{cite news |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |date=29 September 2013 |title=Worthing's Keith Emerson Receives Lifetime Achievement Award |url=http://worthingdaily.co.uk/news/keith-emerson-receives-lifetime-achievement-award/ |newspaper=Worthing Daily |location=[[Worthing]], [[West Sussex]] |access-date=16 March 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130930015936/http://worthingdaily.co.uk/news/keith-emerson-receives-lifetime-achievement-award/ |archive-date=30 September 2013 }}</ref> In 2014 Emerson was inducted into the Hammond Hall of Fame by the Hammond Organ Company.<ref name=hammondhof>{{cite web |url=http://hammondorganco.com/artists/organ-and-leslie-artists/keith-emerson/ |title=Keith Emerson: Hammond Hall Of Fame-2014 |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |date=2014 |publisher=Hammond Organ Company |access-date=12 March 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150905084041/http://hammondorganco.com/artists/organ-and-leslie-artists/keith-emerson/ |archive-date=5 September 2015 }}</ref>
