Digital Booklet
"Five Stars ... a richly satisfying traversal of British songs delivered with consummate feeling and eloquence ... a delightful recital sung with entrancing beauty." - Choir & Organ "... a lovely disc, containing beautifully sung arrangements ... unless you’re entirely allergic to this sort of repertoire, I suspect you’ll find yourself falling for it ... the Armonico Consort’s performances are models of skill and the perfection of their blend married to the exquisiteness of their sound help to seal the deal." - MusicWeb International The Armonico Consort and Christopher Monks celebrate music spanning the length and breadth of the British Isles, featuring mesmerizing new arrangements by Geoffrey Webber and Toby Young of some beautiful folk songs, including of course one of the most famous British melodies ever written, Greensleeves.

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!
