Digital Booklet
Krzysztof Urbański presents his first recording with the Hamburg-based NDR Symphony Orchestra; a celebration of a great composer, one of the most eminent of the 20th century and a Pole like himself. Along with his illustrious colleagues Stravinsky, Bartók, Prokofiev and Shostakovich, Lutosławski gloried in the sound material of the orchestra and displayed boundless imagination, exemplified by Urbański and his forces on this album.

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!
