 Sydney, AU. (SONY BMG MUSIC Entertainment) - Pop opera quartet Il Divo have repeated their Australian and UK chart success by debuting at No 1 on the US Billboard 200 chart with 'Ancora'. This amazing feat adds to an unprecedented record of 23 number ones around the world, and confirms that Il Divo are indeed one of the biggest international acts in the world! Il Divo sold over 150,000 copies of the album in the US in its first week of release, making them the first UK signed act to have an album enter at No 1 without releasing a single since Radiohead's 'Kid A' in 2000. They are also one of few acts to have a No 1 album with virtually no radio play. Carlos, Sebastien, David and Urs will be bringing their glorious voices to Australia this March as part of their national tour and performing tracks from both their self-titled debut album and the world dominating 'Ancora'! 'Il Divo' and 'Ancora' are in stores now
