Digital Booklet
Clarinetist Michael Collins reunites with pianist Michael McHale on this album of sonatas by Brahms and Reinecke. The two clarinet sonatas by Brahms that lead off this programme, although dismissively described by the composer as "two modest sonatas with piano," are works of moving and dramatic intensity. Brahms’s music was devotedly promoted by composer, conductor and pianist Carl Reinecke, whose prodigious output has not endured as well as the music of Brahms, though his chamber music as heard on this recording has proven relatively more durable.

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!
