Music Magazine celebrates tenth birthday with a first for magazines
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ
Music Magazine is marking its tenth birthday by becoming the first
magazine to use glitter on its cover.
The
title's November issue (on sale October 8) takes advantage of a
new process to print glitter - which doesn't come off on the reader's
fingers - on its silver cover. Inside the glittery cover there is
a bumper 148-page issue, looking back at a decade in music.
Features
include a review of the top ten pieces written in the last ten years,
with Radiohead a surprising entrant. And, just as rock has found
a place in this special issue of the world's best-selling classical
music magazine, so Pete Waterman discusses pop's classical influences.
The
results of a Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Music Magazine's first photography competition
- aimed at encouraging imaginative photography of music and musicians
- are revealed, with some stunning images.
Says
Editor Helen Wallace: "All that glitters may not be gold -
it is actually silver in this case- but it seemed a fitting way
to mark our tenth birthday, which we also do by appraising a decade
in music with all the knowledge and authority for which Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Music
Magazine has become renowned."
