Digital Booklet
Prize-winning Amsterdam-based string quartet the Dudok Kwartet makes its recording debut with this enthralling and eclectic programme of works by Joseph Haydn, György Ligeti and Johannes Brahms. Exploring the theme of metamorphoses in the music of the three composers, these exquisite performances feature music from the entire spectrum of the quartet repertoire, from fresh interpretations of Haydn's Quartet in C Major to the technical limits explored in Ligeti's first string quartet, Métamorphoses Nocturnes and the quartet's own effective arrangements of Brahms piano intermezzi. Recipients of the prestigious 2014 Kersjes Prize for exceptional Dutch chamber ensemble, the quartet has earned a rapidly growing reputation as one of the most promising young European string quartets.

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!
