GIRL group All Angels - which features Suffolk schoolgirl Laura Wright - lost out to Sir Paul McCartney at last night's Classical Brit Awards.

Laura, 16, from Framsden, and the rest of the girls - Melanie Nakhla, Charlotte Ritchie and Daisy Chute - were nominated for Album of the Year.

But former Beatle Sir Paul scooped the top award thanks to Ecce Cor Meum (Behold My Heart), a work inspired by his love for late wife Linda.

All Angels arrived for the ceremony at the Royal Albert Hall in a horse-drawn carriage rather than a limousine.

They also sang two numbers, Steal Away and Elgar's Numrod, which they performed outside The Bank of England last month in a campaign to get the composer back on the £20 note.

Other winners included violinist Ruth Palmer, 28, who was named Young British Classical Performer of the Year, Russian soprano Anna Netrebko, who scooped Singer of the Year, Norwegian pianist Leif Ove Andsnes won Instrumentalist of the Year and George Fenton was named Soundtrack Composer of the Year for the BBC's Planet Earth.
