Widely known as "Arranger to the Stars," Robert Farnon has also written an impressive array of film scores and concert works.  "....Definitively performed and lovingly recorded...demonstrates how recordings ought to be and ought to sound. Highly recommended." --Stevenson Classical Guide

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Film music and other orchestral works by Robert Farnon.

REFERENCE RECORDINGS is a well known audiophile label. Indeed "Professor Keith O. Johnson" has been associated with many cutting edge recording examples / techniques not only on the software side of the business, but in the hardware side as well - the highly known and respected "Spectral" brand name comes to mind immediately. 

Their music software  (both CD and LP) competes with the likes of other grand audiophile labels such as; MFSL, Sheffield Lab, Wilson Audio, Opus 3, Mark Levinson, Proprius, etc..

Many of the company's issues have been associated with sonic spectaculars, more specifically, with The Absolute Sound (TAS) magazine, or as it's known in audiophile circles "HP's Super Disc List" (Harry Pearson) as is this title - "The Absolute Sound Super Disc List"!

If you haven't done so already, give a few of the Reference Recording titles a spin, you won't be sorry!
