The project is No. 1 for the first time in four-and-a-half years. The top of Billboard’s latest Classical Albums chart is a bit sleepy.

Literally. Max Richter’s concept album Sleep returns to No. 1 on the chart dated March 28 for the first time in four-and-a-half years, thanks to publicity and promotion for the composer's set generated around World Sleep Day on March 13.

The project climbs from No. 3 to No. 1 with 3,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending March 19, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data.

That's a 112% surge from the previous week (up from little more than 1,000 units). The album's tracks generated 3.5 million on-demand streams during the tracking week (up 107% from 1.7 million the prior frame).
