All Angels, the platinum selling classical girlgroup who last year had a top ten hit with their debut album, return with a new selection of gorgeous pieces in a classical style.

Having met Sir Paul McCartney, performed for the Queen and been nominated for a Classical Brit (as well as passing their A levels with flying colours), the girls have had an extraordinary year.

Their second album, Into Paradise, includes beautifully reworked covers of well known hits such as Coldplay’s ‘The Scientist’ and Prince’s ‘Nothing Compares to You’, as well as superb new takes on classical repertoire, ranging from Mozart's "Canzonetta Sull’Aria" (as heard in "The Shawshank Redemption") to a new version of Elgar's "Nimrod Variations / Sancte Deus" as well as the most popular and most commonly performed choral piece across the land , the "Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's "Messiah ".

Also on the disc is a beautiful original by Heather Nova called ‘Singing Through You’, a stunning example of the amazing vocal blend that has developed between the girls singing and performing together over the last 18 months. This album shows All Angels moving forward as their celestial harmony takes steps ever closer to the true sound of heaven. All Angels are here to stay.
