Digital Booklet
"The Royal String Quartet have made a good reputation in … their support of modern composers and in particular the avant-garde among their fellow-Poles … Paweł Szymański and Paweł Mykietyn … share a subtle ear for string textures and a capacity for demanding much of their interpreters’ techniques." - Gramophone The official titles of the works performed here are not helpful: what they conceal are the most extraordinary soundworlds from two composers at the vanguard of the contemporary Polish music scene, and the magicians of the Royal String Quartet summon from their instruments sounds of collective and individual wonder. This is music to grab the attention of its audience—whether willing or not—and it will leave listeners emphatically having chosen a side of the fence.

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!
