Digital Booklet
Mezzo-soprano Aylish Kerrigan is accompanied by pianist Dearhbla Collins on two major song cycles, each extensive in duration and exceptionally powerful. Arnold Schoenberg's Das Buch der hängenden Gärten is a seminal, revolutionary work, written in the early 1900s and considered by many to be the first truly modernist composition, certainly in vocal music. Today it still sounds exploratory and adventurous. In some ways, the song cycle A Girl by Seoírse Bodley is a modern equivalent, though in no way does it lack in complete originality. Premiered in 1978, its tragic story of a girl exiled from society was not uncommon in Ireland until very recently.

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!
