Du Pré brought such searing intensity and radiant joy to her cello playing that, despite a career that was tragically curtailed by multiple sclerosis, continues to impact musicians today. This luxury set, originally released in 2007 to mark the 25th anniversary of her death, is a treasury uniting du Pré’s Concerto recordings from her tenure at EMI Classics. Mastered at Abbey Road, the collection also features her legendary 1965 recording of the Elgar Cello Concerto in E Minor conducted by Sir John Barbirolli – to which many have described as the definitive” interpretation.

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!
