Digital Booklet
"A glintingly percussive Rite of Spring ... Ravel's La Valse is technically impressive ..." - BBC Music Magazine "When Alice Sara Ott and Francesco Tristano come together to play the works on this album, pieces that have been performed a thousand times before, something miraculous happens. Watch them give a whole new meaning to piano duets." - Sinfini Music Scandale is the title of this 2014 release from pianists Alice Sara Ott and Francesco Tristano. While their choice of title is an allusion to the Russian impresario Sergei Pavlovich Diaghilev, they have no desire to view him or his era through a retrospective, idealistic haze. The challenging programme for two pianos centers around Stravinsky’s extremely rhythmic and avant-garde score of The Rite of Spring. The album also features a world premiere recording of a composition by Tristano himself entitled A Soft Shell Groove.

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!
