Digital Booklet
"Short lets the Znamenny chant that underpins so much of this music breathe freely, phrasing with improvisatory freshness and sense of discovery ..." - Gramophone “There is a distinctive timbre to this repertoire that Tenebrae catches to elevating effect ... this music was composed for choirs of top calibre. And Tenebrae is certainly one of those.” - The Daily Telegraph This programme was inspired by the rare manuscripts collected by Tenebrae founder and director Nigel Short during his travels around Russia. The exquisite collection includes some little known gems, rarely heard outside Russia and never before recorded in the UK, as well as some familiar favourites from this vast area of choral repertoire. Russian choral music has been a feature in Tenebrae’s concert performances since the choir’s inception and over the years the singers have worked extensively with Russian language coaches while nurturing their own passion and precision to deliver a special and heartfelt tribute to the music of these great composers.

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!
