Digital Booklet
The seventh release in the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra's live Horizon series features world premieres recorded during three concert seasons in 2013 and 2015. Magnus Lindberg’s sumptuous Era, a birthday present from the Concertgebouw Hall to the RCO, is paired with Tan Dun’s catchy double bass concerto The Wolf and Richard Rijnvos’s Fuoco e fumo, inspired by the 1996 fire that destroyed the Venetian opera house La Fenice. The programme opens with George Benjamin’s beguiling 20-minute Dream of the Song for countertenor, women’s voices and orchestra.

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!
