General Information

Hailed as one of the greatest finger-picking style guitarist currently recording and performing, Peppino D'Agostino togther with percussionist/drummer Juan Van Emmerloot have recorded a DVD-Audio/Video title of tremendous virtuosity and emotional diversity. The sounds of the percussion weave around the acoustic space in 5.1 channel surround as the warmth of the guitar is projected into the same space. The magic of steels strings on a finely crafted acoustic guitar is presented in all of its fidelity and intimacy thanks to the depth of recording quality offered uniquely by 96 kHz/24 bit recording.

About the Recording Approach

This recording is NOT an attempt to "document" a live recording of Peppino D'Agostino and Juan Van Emmerloot, but instead an exploration of high-resolution recording coupled with aggressive 5.1 channel surround mixing. While both an "audience" and "stage" mix are included on the disc on the DVD-Video side, it is the DVD-Audio 96 kHz/24 bit tracks encoded with Meridian Lossless Packing [MLP] that elevates the listening experience well beyond a traditional CD or even a live event. You are placed in the middle of ensemble and hear the sound of the instruments coming from all directions. The dynamic range and fidelity offered by the 96 kHz/24 Bit source recording makes this recording come to life.
