Personally, I still think the people at the Recording Academy are too busy gushing over Beyonce and Taylor Swift to really be able to distinguish quality classical music.  Nothing against BSO or the LSO chorus, mind you, but....I think I'm going to start my own awards:  the Kellies.  I don't have golden gramophones to hand out, but I do have some ideas about music.  Stay tuned.

Упомянуты выше кандидаты и победители для премий Грэмми от американской Рекордной Академии. Победители находятся в жирном шрифте; Валери и назначенные предложения Мариинского Оркестра находятся в курсиве. Заметьте, как нет никаких кандидатов, перечисленных в жирном шрифте И курсиве.

Я буду скоро иметь мои собственные подарки для очень лучшей музыки: "Келлийс. "  Продолжайте читать блог.
