Amelia's Song
Multichannel Super Audio CD | ® |
One day not long ago I was thinking of my grandmother Amelia. My father's mother. I never met her because she died the year before I was born, but I remembered my dad telling me that she loved music. She even owned a big old upright piano (in a lumber camp in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in the 1890's) and she used to play a little and sing and hymns and such. And she was the one who turned my dad onto music and the piano and he went on to become a terrific pianist. Then, of course, he was the one who turned me on. So there was a real inheritance there in terms of music and the piano that wasn't there in my other grandparents. Warren Bernhardt |

Super Audio CD It looks like a CD and it plays in all existing CD players, but this hybrid Super Audio CD (SACD) is much, much more. Created by Sony and Philips - the people who invented CD - this is actually a two layered disc. First is a reflective CD layer that assures backward compatibility with nearly 600 million CD players worldwide. Second is a semi-transmissive high-density layer, which can be read by a new generation of Super Audio CD players. It represents a new, altogether different way to produce music. An even better CD. |
