The phenomenon that is the 21-year-old New Zealand superstar is gloriously summed up in 'River Of Dreams', a new album that presents 'The Very Best Of' Hayley Westenra. Any thoughts of 21 being too young for a 'best of' programme should be swept aside by the remarkable fact that, last December, Hayley Westenra was declared the "biggest selling Classical artist of the 21st Century", having already surpassed the four million CDs mark. Her appropriately named first album 'Pure', surely the simplest description of her beguiling voice and artistry, went straight into the Classical Charts, making her the fastest-selling debut classical artist of all time.
