	Categorizing Classical Performances \| Chicago Classical Music
		The current "Best Classical Contemporary Composition" category is for the first recording of a work written within the last 25 years, and is awarded to the composer.
		This new category would be a performer's award for albums containing music from 1950 to the present.
		Albums entered in this category could also be entered in other classical categories they fit (e.g., opera, small ensemble, soloist, etc.), but by having their own category, they could be judged separately from traditional classical music performances with which they have little chance of competing.
