This is one of my best downloads! An excellent performance and excellent music from ArpiShow.
A game changer in sound quality. Pure DSD is the way to go!

These Pure DSD albums are pretty much a given- I know they will be great and am much more willing to give the download a try. In fact it can be a let down for more than a few seconds when I go from listening to one of these to a regular high resolution album. Oh and this album- it is great. Eszter’s voice is very relaxing and with that expansive sound from the band backing her up makes things perfect.
