The Breaking the Sound Barriers Contest! In a controversial move, the NARAS classical committee just took a CD that was entered in this year's Grammys in the Classical Crossover category and moved it into the Pop Vocal category! The CD was rock cellist Von Cello's CD, "Breaking The Sound Barriers." Von Cello intentionally created a CD that would break the traditional barriers between classical music and rock. It was therefore entered under Classical Crossover, but the classical committee said no! What do you think? Is "Breaking The Sound Barriers" a Classical Crossover album or a Vocal Pop album? MusicDish is sponsoring a contest based on this question. Here are the details: Listen to the CD and send your comments as well as a vote on whether or not you feel the CD is a Classical Crossover or Pop Vocal CD to voncello@musicdish.com. Von Cello and the editorial staff of MusicDish will then pick their favorite five comments and the writers will receive prizes. Comments will be judged on wit, insight, humor and creativity. Comments will be accepted until January 31st. (contest rules see: http://musicdish.com/contest.php3) One Grand Prize: Indiebiz Basic Membership ($100 value) - One year of everything you need to make a living in the music industry! IndieBiz.com access, our database of 34,000+ media/industry contacts, interactive networking, daily music news, unlimited email consulting, and much more!

He really is breaking the sound barriers!
