Digital Booklet
Grammy Award nomination – Producer Of The Year, Classical, 2017 Hieroglyphen der Nacht sees German cellist Anja Lechner present a programme of works by Valentin Silvestrov, a release which will mark the Ukrainian composer's 80th birthday. Often melding contemporary approaches to harmony with responses to works by Romantic composers such as Schumann, Silvestrov's is a unique compositional voice which Lechner's playing explores emotively. This release presents Lechner playing several solo works, including one dedicated to her entitled Augenblicke der Stille und Traurigkeit, as well as several duets performed with French cellist Agnès Vestermann, including Drei Stücke. “My own music is a response to and an echo of what already exists...” - Valentin Silvestrov, composer

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!
