The jury of the award has selected nominations from three hundred discs released in the course of 2009 and given five stars by BBC Music Magazine critics. The opera category has three nominations: Bohuslav Martinů’s Three fragments from the Opera Juliette (conducted by Charles Mackerras), Dmitry Shostakovich’s The Nose (conducted by Valery Gergiev) and Richard Wagner’s Lohengrin (conducted by Semyon Bychkov).
