Digital Booklet
"Such is the visceral intensity of the music-making, a certain girding of the loins may be required before a second hearing." - Gramophone "The passion that is evident in Beethoven's composition of this work is beautifully captured in this inspiring performance. Sir John Eliot Gardiner's latest recording of Beethoven's Missa Solemnis is a wonderful addition to the choral-orchestral lover's collection." - Music Journal Recorded live at the Barbican in 2012, Sir John Elliot Gardiner provides us with an extremely virtuosic and colorful interpretation of Beethoven's epic mass. This recording captures the intensity of the large forces required to perform this massive composition both accurately and tastefully.

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!
