The Classic FM Chart - Sunday 19 June 2016, 5pm
Aled Jones has seen off attacks by X-Men, Batman and Superman, and now the forces of the Empire. He's back at No.1.
Aled Jones has conquered the evil empire and re-taken the throne after a one-week coup staged by the original soundtrack to Star Wars. That's been forced down to No.10.
The highest new entry this week comes in at No.14. In Granada 1013-1526, Jordi Savall examines 500 years of history in the Spanish city. The succession of the Zirid, Almoravid, Almohad and Nasrid dynasties, their relationship with the neighbouring Christian kingdoms and the often precarious situation of the Jews – who were the first inhabitants of this area – are reflected in this wide musical fresco.
