JENKINS SIGNS $10 MILLION RECORD DEAL
Welsh opera singer KATHERINE JENKINS has signed the biggest classical recording deal in history as she sets her sights on conquering America.
Jenkins, 28, has ditched her record label Universal Classics & Jazz and signed up with Warner Music in a $10 million (£5.8 million), five album deal.
It dwarfs the $1.73 million (£1 million) six-album deal that Jenkins signed with Universal, and is the biggest contract in classical music history, reports British newspaper the Daily Telegraph.
Jenkins’ final album with Universal, Sacred Arias, is out on Monday (20Oct08).
