Digital Booklet
Sonia Prina, one of the leading altos of her generation, teams up with the Milanese laBarocca ensemble conducted by Ruben Jais for her first full-scale opera recital recording which includes several world premieres. There is definitely no lack of heroic roles in the Gluckian catalogue apart from the very famous Orfeo: many memorable parts were assigned by the composer for the alto voice (either male castratos or female contraltos) and it is precisely this repertoire, rarely performed today, which is celebrated here by Prina and the orchestra.

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!
