Digital Booklet
Driven by a constant desire to share his perpetual need for exploration, Belgian conductor Philippe Herreweghe showcases one of Stravinsky's last serial works, both sublime and challenging. Threni is the composer's longest, most ambitious and complex dodecaphonic score and arguably one of his greatest creations. The Requiem Canticles goes even further in this direction: Stravinsky's last masterpiece, it seems to summarize in itself the evolution of an entire lifetime, combining elements from the different stylistic periods that punctuated his career. Herreweghe reveals with conviction his love for the composer’s music and under his sure, inspired direction, the Collegium Vocale Gent and the Royal Flemish Philharmonic reveal its pure poetry.

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!
