The Classic FM Chart - Sunday 11 August 2013

This week, John revealed four new entries in the Classic FM Chart, including a recording of Mahler’s Symphony No.8 from the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, and the latest album by the British choral ensemble Stile Antico. 

There were also high re-entries off the back of the Bristol Proms for violinists Nicola Benedetti and Daniel Hope. Tune in next Sunday 18 August when, as well as counting down the latest Top 30, John has the exclusive premiere play of the new Verdi album from one of the world’s most in-demand tenors: Jonas Kaufmann.
