Neuklang Klangwelten Vol. 9

Neuklang – Vol. 9 (2019) is the ninth volume in the audiophile sampler series from Bauer Studios, titled under the concept Klangwelten Erleben (Experiencing Sound Worlds). This release is particularly notable for its shift toward larger-scale collaborations, featuring big bands paired with full orchestras and international soloists.
Mastered in 24-bit high resolution, Vol. 9 is a favorite for testing scale and headroom. While previous volumes often focused on intimate jazz trios, this volume showcases the ability of Bauer Studios to capture massive ensembles (like the WDR Funkhausorchester or the Württembergische Philharmonie) with the same pinpoint clarity usually reserved for solo instruments.
