And there's another new No.1: 'The Chopin Project' ousts Debbie Wiseman's 'Wolf Hall' after just one week at the top.

After months during which nothing seemed able to shift André Rieu from the top of the Classic FM Chart, there are changes a-plenty in this week's countdown. The shock news was that last week's brand new No.1 from Debbie Wiseman – the soundtrack to the Tudor TV drama, Wolf Hall – has been pushed back to No.5. 

In its place comes The Chopin Project by Icelandic Broadchurch composer Olafur Arnalds, teaming up with the acclaimed German-Japanese pianist Alice Sara Ott. Arnalds presents a unique programme of Chopin works which create an emotional arc through the album, while composing linking sections for string quintet, piano and synthesizer based on the atmosphere and motifs of those pieces.

A former Album of the Week from the musical French religious community of Taizé also enters the chart this week at No.7.
