Album Notes: One-woman classical crossover cottage industry Jenkins follows 2006's 'Serenade' with this, her fifth album in as many years. While on this release she continues to tackle pieces from the classical repertoire and "classicized" renditions of pop standards, it also sees her developing more of a pop sound, with big production numbers sung in English, including two songs written specifically for her by Take That's Gary Barlow.
Advantages: The best album yet, fanastic choice of songs Disadvantages: Alubum cover picture does not do Katherine any justice.
...To date this is my favourite KatherineJenkins album. It has a great mx of both classical and modern songs on it. My favourite being (Quello Che Faro) Sara Per Te (Everything I Do) I Do It For You. This is the Bryan Adams song from the film Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. It has rewritten in Italian and sound fab. Bryan Adams plays the guitar during the song. I also believe that he took the pictures for the album cover. Hopefully this album will win her, a third classical Brit Award in 2007.
The track list is as follows:-
1. (Quello Che Faro) Sara Per Te (Everything I Do) I Do It For You
2. Nella Fantasia
3. Chanson Boheme (from Bizet's Carmen)
4. Green Green Grass Of Home
5. O Mio Babbino Caro
6. Be My Love
7. The Flower Duet (featuring Kiri Te Kanawa)
8. Pachelbel's Canon
9. Granada
10. Lisa Lan
11. The Prayer
12...

Advantages: Clear, charming and soulful voice Disadvantages: She is young, talented, pretty and intellegant and I'm jealous
...I received Second Nature, KatherineJenkins?s second album, as a Christmas present. The past year has been very successful for this welsh songstress. Her debut album, Premiere reached number one in the UK classical charts in April of 2004 and stayed there for eight weeks. Second Nature was released on 18th October 2004 hit the number one slot in January of this year.
KatherineJenkins rose from relative obscurity to become one of British?s rising stars. She?s blonde, slim and beautiful (as a glimpse at the cover will reveal); she?s intelligent (9 Grade A GCSEs, 4 A levels, an Honours degree in Music); she?s young (only 24 ? what a potential future she could have) and she?s enormously talented (this mezzo soprano has a brilliant, crystal-clear and versatile voice).
Accompanied by the National Youth Choir of Wales, Katherine sings...

Advantages: A great read (if you like this sort of thing, obviously) Disadvantages: No longer in print, so getting hold of a copy isn't as easy as popping down to Waterstones
...I'll make no bones about it - this is one of my favourite books. It's been everywhere with me (holidays, conferences, hospital... you name it) and every time I pick it up it's like seeing an old friend again. The book is very well written, and is even more impressive when you realise that the people in the book were real. Obviously I don't want to give away all the ins and outs of the story, as Anya Seton writes it far better than I ever could, but as these were real people, and their existence was well documented, a few historical facts won't spoil anything! All I'll say is, if you historical novels light your candle, then give this one a go.
Right, time for the history lesson...
Katherine de Roet was born in Picardy in the 14th century, and travelled to England with her sister Philippa (who later married Geoffrey Chaucer...
