Katherine Jenkins

UCJ

WE SAY

Continuing our week of highlights from the label of the moment, Universal Classics & Jazz, comes a new signing for 2004. Katherine Jenkins is a Welsh graduate of Royal Academy of Music but is just 22. Her debut album will be released in March when she's touring with Hayley Westenra and she has two things in common with Hayley: a spellbinding voice and an element of class not always associated with the 'classical crossover' genre.
