18 June 2017, 18:55

Wonder Woman is at no. 1 for the second week in a row, with The 50 Greatest Pieces of Classical Music and Peaceful Piano switching week on week between no. 2 and no. 3. The soundtrack for Alien: Covenant, which entered the chart last week at no. 6, has already dropped out the chart entirely. The rest of the top ten remains mostly the same, apart from a new entry at no. 9, The Alehouse Sessions, and the Lord of the Rings soundtrack which climbs back into the top ten again after dropping to no. 11 last week. 

In the rest of the chart, the highest climber from outwith the chart is Einaudi’s Uni Mattina which climbs nine places from no. 33 to no. 24, and the highest climber within the chart is 2Cellos’ Score which rises seven places from no. 22 to no. 15. The two joint biggest fallers descend seven places each, leaving Ravel at no. 20 and the Rogue One soundtrack at no. 21. 

Other than The Alehouse Sessions at no. 9, the only other new entry this week is the new Handel album conducted by George Petrou, plus five reentries.
