A recording of special beauty and rarity is revived by Impex Records: Arturo Delmoni's playing in the "Church of the Holy Trinity" in New York City from 1982, produced by David Hancock, John Marks and Delmoni himself. The breathtaking playing of the exceptional violinist Delmoni on a Stradivarius from 1721 paired with an excellent sound quality earned the recording a place on the respected recommendation list of "The Absolute Sound" magazine and is considered a gold piece for audiophile classical music fans. That this re-issue now gets a stage on 25K gold CD is more than deserved.

The edition is limited to 2,500 numbered copies.
