VA - The Art of HiFi Vol. 4: Strings (2024) [DSD256]

The Art of HiFi: Strings takes us on a journey of stringed instruments played by world-class musicians. Sandra Wong showcases violin and nyckelharpa with technical precision and a unique emotional execution. Well-known cellist, Zuill Bailey, never disappoints with his version of BWV 1007 Suite No. 1 in G Major by J.S. Bach. Conner Hollingsworth exhibits many different upright bass styles on the classic Up a Lazy River. Katie Mintle gives a delicate performance of The Beatles's, Let it Bet, on the harp. Art of HiFi Volume 4 features many other stringed instruments captured perfectly in DSD256.
