MUSIC FOR ORGAN, BRASS & TIMPANI - ANTHONY NEWMAN & GRAHAM ASHTON (HYBRID SACD5.1)

Our Best-Selling Classical SACD!  Music For Organ, Brass and Timpani This One Sounds Amazing!

Produced by 12-time Grammy award winner Steven Epstein and engineered by Richard King, Music for Organ, Brass and Timpani was recorded and post-produced entirely in the DSD domain on a Sonoma Workstation. “This record is a great example of what the Sonoma Workstation and the SA-CD format can deliver,” said David Kawakami, Director of the Super Audio CD Project at Sony Corporation of America.

'The music on this disc is a series of arrangements for the aforementioned instruments, cleverly crafted by Graham Ashton, who heads his epononymous Brass Ensemble. The music ranges from a knockout of a piece by Richard Strauss, to Bach, Rachmaninoff, and even the 'Great Gate of Kiev' from Pictures at an Exhibition...The entire process, from recording to editing to production stayed within the DSD encoding, instead of, as so often happened in the past, being taken out of DSD for editing purposes...I can tell you that this really is going to be a 'super' disc sonically; but, to me, perhaps every bit as impressive are its musical values. The Ashton ensemble is sensational, and so is the celebrated Newman. Just wait till you hear the lowest notes on the Strauss. Or the brass seated (on some cuts) in a semi-circle stretching out into your listening room.' - Harry Pearson, The Absolute Sound.
