Digital Booklet
“This is lovely stuff...” - Fanfare “Only the terminally averse to the fortepiano and/or smallish orchestras need stay away from any of these recordings... The smallish orchestra and the solo instrument are well balanced so that the former sounds full-bodied; not large-scale, but by no means pint-sized or desiccated... and the soloist shines without being too forward.” - MusicWeb International “As to the finale, it ‘flows like oil’ (to use a favourite phrase of Mozart’s), with passagework of scintillating grace and that sense of delighted collusion between keyboard and orchestra that marks each of these refreshing performances.” - Gramophone Eminent fortepianist Ronald Brautigam joins with the Cologne Academy and conductor Michael Alexander Willens to perform two of Mozart's piano concerti on this BIS release. Recorded on a new copy of a 1795 Walter instrument, Brautigam's performance is swift and fresh in the intense Piano Concerto No. 20 in D Minor and reflective Piano Concerto No. 27, and he is ably accompanied by Willens and the Academy.

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!
