Music Magazine celebrates tenth birthday with a first for magazines
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½
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 ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ 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 ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Music
Magazine has become renowned."
Notes

music magazine, with a monthly circulation of 78,707 (ABC: Jan to
