Digital Booklet
"Like the second volume in this series, this is a beautifully produced compendium of William Alwyn scores, played to perfection by Gamba and the BBC virtuosos and captured in resplendent sonics. Again Philip Lane gets high marks for his work reconstructing and arranging the scores for concert performance." - American Record Guide "(Instrumental) is the invaluable work of Philip Lane. His efforts in painstakingly reconstructing the scores ... as always the craftsmanship is a model of its art, the music shaped and constructed beautifully ... production values, as ever with Chandos, are virtually beyond reproach with the BBC Philharmonic playing beautifully under Rumon Gamba, the recorded sound a model of clarity and balance. Of equal excellence are the booklet notes ..." - MusicWeb International The third in a series of four albums devoted to British film composer William Alwyn was released in 2005 and includes his music for the 1960 Disney movie Swiss Family Robinson, 1963's The Running Man and others, all in world premiere arrangements by Philip Lane.

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!
