Digital Booklet
"The recording is outstanding with just the right balance between voices, orchestra and choir ... I really must recommend this beautifully presented set to all lovers of choral music." - Classical.Net Jürgen Budday leads the Hannoversche Hofkapelle, the Maulbronner Kammerchor and talented vocalists on the unedited 1748 version of Handel's oratorio Joshua, performed according to the traditions of the time. This double album with over two hours of music was recorded live, in direct two-track stereo digital, amid the remarkable acoustics of the church of the German UNESCO World Heritage Site Maulbronn Monastery. The musicians, singers, audience, opus and room come together in an intimate dialogue that is unique and unrepeatable.

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!
