Digital Booklet
One of the most distinguished conductors of his generation, Andrés Orozco-Estrada leads the Houston Symphony on their third volume of Dvořák symphonies. The New World Symphony is among the most successful and distinctive symphonies ever written and it loses none of its drama or appeal on repeated playing. Inspired by American spirituals and Henry Longfellow’s epic poem The Song of Hiawatha, Dvořák's infectiously tuneful work with its brilliantly colourful orchestration and rhythmic verve has its creative wellspring in the composer's own homesickness. From beautiful, wistful melodies to unfettered exuberance and glorious, sustained climaxes, this extraordinary symphony has it all. The evergreen Slavonic Dances, of which two are heard here, have proved to be equally popular with audiences. Responsible for establishing Dvořák's international reputation, these utterly charming pieces overflow with catchy, appealing melodies, their freshness and simplicity concealing their artful construction.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
