Super Audio CD

SACD (Super Audio CD)

The SACD uses a higher digital resolution than the audio CD and also offers the possibility to store multi-channel sound (surround sound). To enjoy the music in high-end quality, a special SACD player is required. Thanks to the hybrid function, most of the products marked "SACD" in our store can also be played on conventional CD players. In this case, however, the sound does not differ from that of a normal CD. In case of deviations, we point this out separately (non-hybrid).

Wieder folgt Poltéra seinem Erfolgsrezept, eine CD ausschließlich einem Komponisten zu widmen und ihn in Konzert und Kammermusik zu portraitieren. So gesellen sich zu dem gut fünfundzwanzig Minuten dauernden Cellokonzert (eines von nur drei Konzerten, die Barber überhaupt schrieb) die Cellosonate und das berühmt gewordene „Adagio for strings“, das Werk, dem Barber seine Popularität verdankte.
