Digital Booklet
This is the first of two world premiere recordings of J.S. Bach's complete English Suites keyboard works, arranged for two guitars by the Montenegrin Guitar Duo. The suites are a series of dance movements that, despite their name, owe more to earlier French and German models. Transcriptions of Bach for solo guitar have been popular since the 19th century and the emergence of the guitar duo extends still further the potential for exciting and revelatory performances like those contained on this album.

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!
