Sharon Isbin's new CD hits the charts

Grammy winning guitarist Sharon Isbin has hit the charts with her new CD, "Journey to the New World," from Sony Classical. The recording, which includes performances with Joan Baez & Mark O'Connor, shot up to the #1 bestseller on Amazon.com's classical music list. It has also been the #1 bestseller on the classical list for Tower Records, Barnes & Noble and iTunes. In the category of all music genres, Journey to the New World reached #5 on both Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com, and #2 on Tower Records charts topping new releases by Bob Dylan, Green Day, Dave Matthews and Eric Clapton. It has been a regular fixture on the Billboard Top Classical Crossover chart for 14 weeks since the CD's release.
