"The Buffalo Philharmonic plays throughout with confident assurance under JoAnn Falletta’s baton ... will ensure many more music lovers will get to hear this powerful and compelling work.
- MusicWeb International
"Disc of the Month. This is a wonderfully smart coupling: two major works both based on theatrical scores ... Falletta and her Buffalo players also put on a virtuosic display, clearly relishing the many opportunities that Corigliano gives them to strut their stuff. The whole production is engineered with vivid but unobtrusive naturalness. A total winner."

JoAnn Falletta and the Buffalo Philharmonic continue their revelatory exploration of Corigliano’s highly engaging and imaginative symphonic music on this Grammy nominated album. Music from the composer's third film score, The Red Violin, provided elements which Corigliano elaborates in the Violin Concerto which features violin soloist Michael Ludwig. The programme also includes Phantasmagoria, drawing material from his immense opera The Ghosts of Versailles with subliminal quotes from Mozart, Rossini and Wagner.

*Recorded in PCM 96 kHz / 24-bit. Mastered in PCM 352.8 kHz / 24-bit, 192 kHz / 24-bit, 96 kHz / 24-bit and DSD 2.8224 MHz / 1-bit 2xHD Mastering: René Laflamme 2xHD Executive Producer: André Perry This album was mastered using our 2xHD proprietary system. In order to achieve the most accurate reproduction of the original recording we tailor our process specifically for each project, using a selection from our pool of state-of-the-art audiophile components and connectors.The process begins with a transfer to analog from the original 96kHz/24-bit resolution master, using cutting edge D/A converters. The analog signal is then sent through a hi-end tube pre-amplifier and (if needed) will be EQ’d before being recorded directly in DXD using the dCS905 A/D and the dCS Vivaldi Clock. All connections used in the process are made of OCC silver cable. DSD 2.8224 MHz/1-bit and PCM 352.8kHz/24-bit and 192kHz/24-bit versions are separately generated, directly from the analog signal.
