Digital Booklet
Initially regarded as a master composer of art songs, Jake Heggie has since become known as perhaps America’s leading contemporary composer of internationally acclaimed operas. This album contains examples of both genres, including the world premiere of Heggie's one-act choral opera The Radio Hour along with four shorter vocal art song-based works in varied arrangements, several with choral elements, sung by the John Alexander Singers. American mezzo-soprano Susan Graham is also heard on three of the shorter pieces accompanied by members of the Pacific Symphony.

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!
