Digital Booklet
The cover art promises "Christmas carols like you have never heard them before!" and this unique collection arranged by contemporary American composer Julie Giroux delivers on that pledge. Performed by the University of Texas at El Paso Wind Symphonic Winds, a great deal of imagination and humour went into this recording. Giroux includes some of the most luxurious and sensitive settings to truly fascinate the listener, while conductor Ron Hufstader and the UTEP Symphonic Winds provide the professional sounds that bring out the best of Giroux's scoring artistry.

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!
