Enjoy new music with our classical music chart for this week. Our weekly selections are based on sales numbers and simply what albums we love and think you NEED to hear.<\/p>\n
For the complete top 20, tune into Classical Chartz<\/a><\/strong> with the New Classical FM\u2019s Mark Wigmore every Saturday from 3-5 p.m.<\/p>\n Max Richter<\/strong> holds on to the top spot on this week\u2019s Classical Chartz Top Ten with In A Landscape<\/strong>. Emily D\u2019Angelo<\/strong>\u2019s Freezing<\/strong> and Jonas Kaufmann<\/strong>\u2019s Puccini Love Affairs<\/strong> exchange spots from last week to land at No. 3 and No. 2 respectively. Hard on their heels, the Danish String Quartet<\/strong>\u2019s Keel Road<\/strong> comes in at No. 4, with Augustin Hadelich<\/strong>\u2019s American Road Trip<\/strong> settling in at No.5 for the week.<\/p>\n There are three newcomers to the Classical Chartz Top Ten this week. Fazil Say<\/strong> and his release Oiseaux Tristes<\/strong> makes the climb from No. 13 last week to land at No. 10. The Turkish pianist\u2019s new album of French keyboard music takes its name from one of the movements of Ravel\u2019s Miroirs suite. Released on Warner Classics, the album also includes Debussy\u2019s Suite bergamasque, along with a set of five pieces by Fran\u00e7ois Couperin.<\/p>\n Two releases are new to the Classical Chartz altogether. Tafelmusik<\/strong> & new Principal Guest Conductor Rachel Podger<\/strong>\u2019s new recording of Haydn Symphonies No. 43 & 49<\/strong> takes the No. 9 spot for this week. In an interview with LvT<\/a>, Podger had this to say: \u201cYou might be forgiven for thinking that Haydn\u2019s 106 symphonies might all sound rather similar to each other, since there are so very many! But there is something different about each one of them; Haydn\u2019s musical mind was a well of ideas and tunes, often full of wit and vivaciousness, often charming and melodic, often dramatic and rustic (as with his early symphonies, and very much the case with no 49).\u201d<\/p>\n Also new to the Chartz, pianist Igor Levit<\/strong>\u2019s simply named Brahms<\/strong> with the Vienna Philharmonic and conductor Christian Thielemann<\/strong> makes a landing at No. 7. The triple album package includes both of Brahms Piano Concertos, along with the Vienna Phil accompanying Levit in a Brahms waltz as an encore. It\u2019s the first joint recording for Levit and Thielemann. The two met when Levit stepped in at the last minute for another pianist who\u2019d become ill, and performed a Mozart concerto with Thielemann and the Staatskapelle Dresden back in 2015. The two hit it off instantly as artists, and the new recording is planned to be the first of many collaborations.<\/p>\n Are you looking to promote an event<\/u><\/span><\/a>?
