Wedding season is well and truly here, as three new wedding albums have made their way into this week’s Classic FM Chart.
After Prince Harry’s wedding to Meghan Markle, Classic FM – The Wedding Collection, Music For a Royal Wedding and The Wedding Album have all made sudden entries into the Classic FM Chart.
At the top of the chart, John Williams: A Life in Music holds at No. 1, while Max Richter’s The Blue Notebooks has leapt up a huge 24 places to No. 2.
However, after completely dominating last week’s chart, John Williams’ Star Wars soundtracks have now fallen to No. 10, 13, 17 and 23, with others leaving the chart completely.
