Digital Booklet
This album contains the world premiere recording of organ transcriptions of the music composed by Basil Poledouris for the 1982 adventure film Conan the Barbarian, presented by Philipp Pelster. The film's director and co-writer John Milius intended to create an opera in the form of film and indeed, with its power, energy and moments of tenderness, the music supports the storyline in a similar way to a work written for the stage. The superb Glatter-Götz/Rosales organ in Claremont, California was designed to inspire creativity and innovation; Pelster’s vision in making a complete film score transcription especially for the unique possibilities of this instrument transforms the orchestral colours of the original to generate a completely new and richly rewarding musical experience.
44.1 kHz / 24-bit PCM – Naxos Studio Masters

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!
