Digital Booklet
Praised for her virtuoso technique and rich tone, flutist Christina Jennings is an acknowledged expert of composer George Rochberg’s music. The few pieces that Rochberg wrote for flute are as bold and individualistic as anything in his oeuvre; his Ukiyo-e pieces, included here, are among his most beautiful and haunting works. Rochberg's ability to compose in an astonishing variety of voices is clearly shown in the Caprice Variations, based on Paganini’s famous melody, in homages to composers from Bach to Bartók. Jennings’s transcriptions challenge the player with dynamic, technical and stylistic extremes. "This transcription includes 20 of the original 51 Caprices. I chose to include those best suited to the flute while representing the enormous stylistic range of Rochberg’s entire set. My goal in the transcriptions was to use the flute to its fullest capacity ..." - Christina Jennings

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!
