"I have had the pleasure of reviewing a string of discs from Sophie Yates here and like those with uniformly high marks, her Rameau is also a palpable hit." - Fanfare "... Yates's sensitivity to the subtleties and nuances of this music goes hand in hand with a wonderful technical facility ... she seems to have a natural feel for French music and the rich, almost orchestral colours of Rameau's writing." - Early Music Today Award-winning British harpsichordist Sophie Yates recorded the first two books of Rameau's Pièces de Clavecin at Forde Abbey, Somerset in 1999, released on this album in 2000 to great praise. She completed the trilogy with a second Rameau volume four years later, recorded at the same venue.

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!
