Search - Wei Li, Tin Hua Lau, Yin Kuen Hua :: Autumn Yearning Fantasia

Autumn Yearning Fantasia from First Impression Music on SACD! Well before it was released on xrcd24, Autumn Yearning Fantasia was already chosen as the demo reference recording in the Annual AES (Audio Engineering Society) Conference Seminar in June 2003 at Banff, Canada, titling "The New Realism" on the subject of how to achieve best sound in a stereo recording!
Hence, you can imagine how good the sound is. The music and the performance are, of course, breathtaking. About 180 audio engineers were present. More details of this event are described in the liner notes of the album. It is a must own disc, if you claim yourself a true audiophile, then experience this for yourself... 'the most natural and musical sound ever recorded'.
