The Classic FM Chart - 18 January 2015, 5pm
The Top 4 remains unchanged but there's a fascinating highest new entry from tenor Ian Bostridge making its mark on the Chart.
No change at the top of the Classic FM Chart this week - Andre Rieu, Alfie Boe, Katherine Jenkins and Sol3 Mio all hold on to their positions from last week.
At No.10, the highest new entry comes from tenor Ian Bostridge. He's on fine form on this album of three major Schubert song cycles - Die schöne Müllerin, Winterreise and Schwanengesang, which has been highly praised for its ‘marvellously haunting expression’. The set also includes a bonus DVD of Winterreise with pianist Julius Drake, as well as the documentary film Over the Top with Franz.
