Jacqueline du Pré and Daniel Barenboim formed the most glamourous and successful couple of classical music in the late 60s, both on stage, in private and on record. The last studio realization by du Pré before illness prevented her from playing, this recording features both artists in romantic cello sonatas by Chopin and César Franck (actually a transcription of his famous violin sonata). It was recorded a few months after she had to pause playing for a while due to mysterious symptoms which have never been identified.

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!
