The Del Sol String Quartet teams up with didjeridu virtuoso Stephen Kent to bring to life The Complete String Quartets with Didjeridu by late Australian composer Peter Sculthorpe who died seven weeks before the release of this album. The recording is a unique and exciting aural experience filled with rich organic sonic colours through the use of the traditional quartet and the indigenous sounds of the didjeridu. Sensual and contemplative, spiky and wild, the works, like Sculthorpe’s entire oeuvre, channel the spirit of the vast Australian landscape and the myriad stories it has witnessed.This is the first complete set of these works, a project Charlton Lee of Del Sol says is amongst the amazing artistic collaborations the quartet has had in its 22 year history of music making.

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!
