Over the course of the past decade, the French magazine Diapason's ‘palmarès’ (or 'Golden Tuning-Forks of the Year') have come to be regarded as France’s most prestigious accolades for recorded classical music. This year's ceremony took place at the Collège des Bernardins last night, with performances by award-winners including Giovanni Antonini, Alexandre Kantorow and Emiliano Gonzalez Toro.
