Digital Booklet
Cecilia Bartoli has released Queen of Baroque, a new compilation of her celebrated baroque arias. The album features the very best of Cecilia Bartoli’s treasured recordings of musical delights and discoveries of the 17th and 18th centuries, including two previously unreleased world premiere recordings of forgotten jewels by Italian composers Leonardo Vinci and Agostino Steffani. Cecilia Bartoli is joined on the album by special guests Philippe Jaroussky, June Anderson, Franco Fagioli and Sol Gabetta, sharing her passion for musical curiosities uncovered throughout the centuries. Queen of Baroque serves as a tribute to both Cecilia Bartoli, widely celebrated for her treatment of Baroque arias, and the composers that created the chart hits of the day. The full extent of the human condition is shared through love duets, coloratura duels, religious fervour, warlike dramatism, moments of despair, flirtatious humour and sensational discoveries.

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!
