Polish-French harpsichordist Wanda Landowska played a key role in reviving the popularity of her instrument in the early 20th century, and was the first person to record Bach’s Goldberg Variations on the harpsichord. Her poetic insight as an interpreter is celebrated in this collection, which features her performances of Mozart’s Sonata No. 18 in D Major, Joseph Lanner’s Valse Viennoises and Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 12 in A Flat Major.

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!
