Digital Booklet
Pianist Burkard Schliessmann demonstrates his individual and highly considered interpretative style on this collection dedicated to Bach's keyboard works. Showcasing Bach's two famous pieces the Partita No. 2 in C Minor and the Italian Concerto, the album also includes a special inclusion of BWV 906 which Bach left as a Fantasia and an unfinished Fugue. Schliessmann recognizes the inner soul of the music and brings it to life in a new way rather than insisting on rigid tempi and traditional Baroque styling. This recording will be welcomed as a new approach even by those who know these works very well.

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!
