Digital Booklet
This live album presents the world premiere of a unique set of works by Danish composer Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen, written and dedicated to the Grammy-winning Kronos Quartet and Theatre of Voices with conductor Paul Hillier. Using a text from Henry VIII’s songbook, drawing musical inspiration from the old "ground" technique and from a certain famous Baroque canon, Green Ground offers a kaleidoscopic trip through an enchanting world; independent layers of playful sounds for strings and voices merge to the accompaniment of wooden percussion instruments.

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!
