Digital Booklet
“The CD is well-produced with splendid sound quality and convincing performances from all the artists.” - John France, MusicWeb International The Silver Hound and Other Songs sees art song by British composer, performer, conductor, and publisher Betty Roe brought to life by a range of respected singers. A student of York Bowen and Lennox Berkeley in the late 1940s, Roe was appointed a MBE in 2011 for her services to music, and though she may not be a household name she has created a prolific body of work in art song as well as opera, musical theatre, and cabaret. This collection brings together vocal pieces spanning three decades, as sung by sopranos Sarah Leonard and Anne Marie Sheridan, tenor Robin Tritschler, and baritone Stephen Varcoe, all sensitively accompanied by pianist and specialist in English song, Nigel Foster.

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!
