Larry,

Classical categories are ONLY judged on Albums except for Classical Contemporary which is it's own sub category. You shouldn't be worrying about "songs." Albums can be original or cover.. it doesn't matter. In the case of Contemporary Classical albums, if the material supports it, we'll have an award for both Best Album and Best Composition. (Song to me is too limited in description for a Classical piece which might be a few minutes or an entire album length).

Once we whittle the numbers down, we will break out the remaining albums into sub categories if there's enough quality albums still in the running which would include Chamber, Concerto, Solo, Orchestral etc. In Classical Vocal, we might separate out Opera from Classical Vocal if justified.
