SACD (Super Audio CD)
Die SACD verwendet eine höhere digitale Auflösung als die Audio-CD und bietet außerdem die Möglichkeit, Mehrkanalton (Raumklang) zu speichern. Um die Musik in High-End-Qualität genießen zu können, wird ein spezieller SACD-Player benötigt. Dank Hybrid-Funktion sind die meisten in unserem Shop mit "SACD" gekennzeichneten Produkte auch auf herkömmlichen CD-Playern abspielbar. Dann allerdings unterscheidet sich der Sound nicht von einer normalen CD. Bei Abweichungen weisen wir gesondert darauf hin (Non-Hybrid).

Disk 1 von 3 (SACD)
Omar Khayyám (für 3 Solostimmen, gemischten Chor und Orchester)
-
1 Prelude (1. Teil)
-
2 Wake! For the sun, who scatteres into flight
-
3 Before the phantom of false morning died
-
4 And as the cock crew, those who stood before
-
5 Now the new year reviving old desires
-
6 Iram indeed is gone with all his rose
-
7 Whether at Naishápúr or Babylon
-
8 Each morn a thousand roses brings, you say
-
9 With me along the strip of herbage strown
-
10 Some for the glories of this world; and some
-
11 Look to the blowing Rose about us
-
12 Think, in this battered caravanserei
-
13 I sometimes think that never blows so red
-
14 Ah, my Beloved, fill the cup that clears
-
15 Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend
-
16 Alike for those who for To-day prepare
-
17 Myself when young did eagerly frequent
-
18 What, without asking, hither hurried Whence?
-
19 Up from earth's centre through the seventh gate
-
20 Earth could not aswer; nor the seas that mourn
-
21 Then of the Thee In Me who works behind
-
22 Then to the lip of this poor earthern urn
-
23 I think the vessel, that with fugitive
Disk 2 von 3 (SACD)
-
1 As then the tulip for her morning sup
-
2 So when that angel of the darker drink
-
3 Tis but a tent where takes his one day's rest
-
4 When you an I behind the veil are past
-
5 The desert -
-
6 The caravan -
-
7 A moment's halt - a monumentary taste -
-
8 Would you that spangle of existence spend
-
9 A moment guessed - then back behind the fold
-
10 Waste not your hour, nor in the vain pursuit
-
11 Better be jocund with the fruitful grape
-
12 You know, my friends, with what a brave carouse (2. Teil)
-
13 Ah, but my computations, people say
-
14 And 'twas - the Grape!
-
15 The Grape that can with logic absolute
-
16 The mighty Mahmúd, Allah-breathing Lord
-
17 Why, be this Juice the growth of God, who dare
-
18 I must abjure the balm of life, I must
-
19 The revelations of devout and learn'd
-
20 We are no other than a moving row
-
21 The moving finger writes; and, having writ
-
22 And that invertes bowl we call the sky
-
23 With earth's first clay they did the las man knead
-
24 I tell you this - When, started from the goal
-
25 What! out of senseless nothing to provoke
-
26 Oh thou, who didst with pitfall and with gin
-
27 Oh thou, who man of base earth didst make
Disk 3 von 3 (SACD)
-
1 The fast of Ramazán (3. Teil)
-
2 Worshipper in the Mosque
-
3 As under cover of departing day
-
4 Shapes of all sorts and sizes, great and small
-
5 Said one among them - Surely not in vain
-
6 So while the vessels one by one were speaking
-
7 Ah, with the grape my fasing life provide
-
8 Indeed the idol I have loved so long
-
9 And much as wine has play'd the infide!
-
10 Yet ah, that spring should vanish with the rose
-
11 Would but the desert of the fountain yield
-
12 Yon rising moon that looks for us again
-
13 And when like her, oh Sáki, you shall pass
