Thursday night of Cardiff Singer week is always particularly exciting, not just because of the prospect of hearing the singers not taking part in the Song Prize for the first time but also because of the announcement of the line-up for the Final.
If you are saving yourself for the BBC Four programme tonight at 7.30pm, and DON'T want to find out beforehand which of the singers from Uruguay, Ireland, USA, Italy and South Korea was the winner of Concert 4, along with the names of Sunday's finalists, DON'T click on this link.
Dame Joan Sutherland Audience Prize
Voting in the Audience Prize is now open, and closes at around 11am on Sunday. Viewers and listeners in the UK can vote by phone for their favourite singer from the week, irrespective of whether or not they will be in the final. Phone numbers and full terms and conditions are available on the website.
Watch video clips of all the singers to help you decide which will get your vote.
