Digital Booklet
"... a fine recording ... it is for (Ferschtman’s) playing that you will want this ... she doesn’t disappoint. Tender phrasing and drama both intensely quiet and lyrical as well as in full flight are all features of a fine performance. These are excellent players ... I’ve been happy to make its acquaintance ... rich in superb individual qualities as it is." - MusicWeb International Liza Ferschtman presents a beautiful, passionate rendition of Dvořák's intriguing Violin concerto together with the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Mario Venzago on this release. The interesting programme also includes An American in Paris, a symphonic poem, or perhaps better termed a free rhapsody for an expanded orchestra. Although Gershwin had not meant it as programme music and certainly not as an autobiographical work, it clearly shows features of both.

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!
