Classic FM Chart: Alan Titchmarsh and Debbie Wiseman cling on to top spot
25 March 2018, 18:55
This week in the Classic FM Chart, The Glorious Garden clings on once again to the top spot, and John Williams makes an almighty leap back into the top 10.
Alan Titchmarsh and Debbie Wiseman have managed to hold on to the top spot again, with The Glorious Garden remaining at no. 1. Elsewhere in the top 10, John Williams' soundtrack for Star Wars: The Last Jedi leaps from no. 22 all the way up to no. 6, due in no small part to the movie's impending availability for download.
Max Richter is another big climber this week, re-entering the chart at no. 3 with his Sleep album, while new entries from the BBC Symphony Orchestra and soprano Joanne McGaghon arrive at nos. 7 and 9 respectively. Alexandre Desplat's Academy Award-winning soundtrack for The Shape Of Water splashes out of the top 10, ending up at no. 14.
Elsewhere in the chart, Alfred Brendel and a recording of Bach's B Minor Mass are the other notable new entries, while Game Of Thrones fans will be delighted to see Ramin Djawadi's scores for both seasons 6 and 7 rounding out the bottom end.
