Classical BRIT noms out
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 13 April 2010
Noms were also announced yesterday for the Classical BRITs. Some of these we already knew I think. Best Album certainly. But hey, here they are in their entirety. Brilliant. The most classical of BRITSs will be presented at what is being called an awards ceremony on 13 May in the most Royal of all of the many Albert Halls. Enjoy.
