Digital Booklet
One of Messiaen’s favourite works of his own composition, Les corps glorieux explores themes of resurrection and redemption and is regarded as something of a masterpiece. Performed here by British organist Tom Winpenny, Assistant Master of the Music at St Albans Cathedral, Hertfordshire, the vivd and varied emotions of this work are highlighted. It is paired with the very different Messe de la Pentecôte, written after World War Two and displaying Messiaen’s experiments with improvisation and birdsong.

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!
