Digital Booklet
This double album is centred around British composer Liz Johnson's complete string quartets, performed by the Fitzwilliam String Quartet with singer Loré Lixenberg and clarinetist Ronald Woodley. The programme features the award-winning Sky-burial, a setting of words by Kathleen Jamie, along with a sequence of original pieces setting Jo Shapcott's quirky poetry for female voice. Sea-change is a clarinet quintet for five different clarinets for the soloist and five instruments each for the string quartet, including Swanee whistles, while Forty-something is dedicated to the Fitzwilliam String Quartet to celebrate its 40th anniversary.

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!
