The Classic FM Chart - Sunday 29 September 2013

One of today's great tenors has the highest new entry with his Verdi bicentenary collection.

Pavarotti is hanging on to the top spot but another terrific tenor Jonas Kaufmann enters the chart with The Verdi Album - the highest new entry at No. 4.

And the superstar soprano Renee Fleming also has a new entry with her Guilty Pleasures album. Described as an album of sheer indulgence, it features a new and personal selection of songs and arias which we might never hear her sing on stage.
