Digital Booklet
Nelson Goerner has earned the well deserved nickname "the poet of the piano" due in part to his impressive discography which includes multiple-award-winning Chopin and Debussy recordings. For this recital, Goerner tackles Beethoven’s Sonata No. 29 "Hammerklavier" in addition to the Bagatelles. Of his Hammerklavier, the great composer said "here is a sonata that will make pianists work hard.” Goerner rises to this challenge beautifully, playing the 45 minute work with passion and emotion.

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!
