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).

Publikumslieblinge
Während in England alle drei der hier vorgestellten Werke von Benjamin Britten eine außerordentliche Popularität genießen und dort entsprechend häufig im Konzert zu erleben sind, hat es in Deutschland lediglich das brillante The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra (1946) zu ähnlicher Beliebtheit beim Publikum gebracht. Sir Simon Rattle und das London Symphony Orchestra & Chorus sind zweifellos die idealen Interpreten, um für die düstere Sinfonia da Requiem (1940) und die optimistische Spring Symphony (1949) auch hierzulande neue Freunde und Bewunderer zu gewinnen.
