Digital Booklet
Another phenomenal violinist, Pinchas Zukerman, becomes Perlman’s sparring partner for a fascinating and varied programme of duets from the 18th and 19th centuries. For the Handel Passacaglia (arranged in the 1890s by Johan Halvorsen) Zukerman moves over to the viola. This edition was released through Itzhak Perlman: The Complete Warner Recordings box set, which represents a journey through one of the most outstanding recorded legacies of the second half of the twentieth century. Itzhak Perlman’s discography is dizzying in its exceptional quality and in the sheer variety of riches it has to offer. In terms of volume, it exceeds those of the most productive violinists of the last century — performers such as Yehudi Menuhin, David Oistrakh and even Jascha Heifetz — Perlman approaching every branch of the repertoire with equal delight, assurance, charm and sincerity. The number of works in Perlman’s discography is staggering in itself: 550 pieces of all shapes and sizes, written by 110 different composers. He has recorded a vast range of concertos — most of the Classical, Romantic and twentieth-century works in the genre, working with 25 orchestras under 20 different conductors.

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!
