Upbeat: Coda

A reminder that you can still make your nominations for 'Personality of the Year' in the International Classical Music Awards - see entry form below. Our first call drew the expected full range of suggestions (not to mention some shameless lobbying), but it's hard to resist passing on the decision of one reader to choose the late John Cage, 'more as an umbrella under which to gather all the other unsung heroes'. Sung or unsung, your votes have until the end of the month to count.
