Audiophile Masters Volume VIII is the perfect blend of classical and modern compositions performed by world-class musicians. This collection of recordings has all the elements to perfectly showcase soundstaging and depth on any well-done audiophile system while taking the listener through a brilliant succession of musical pieces.

From Alicia Straka’s original accordion composition Musette Souer, to the stunning voice of Russian soprano, Ekaterina Kotcherguina, on Three Early Songs, no. 1 by George Crumb and the expansiveness of the expertly recorded and mixed Magee String Quartet performing Four Pieces for String Quartet, Op. 81, MWV R 35 – III.
