The producer, Alexander Jero says the the title presents the music of the legendary Sebastian Bach using "virtual instruments and modern synthesis," in such a way that Surround Records has called it "3-Dimensional Sound Reality."

According to the press release, the title procss promises a "clarity and sonic perception of these classical works [that] will open a new vision of the original masterpieces."

"Uncommon Bach" is the first audio-only HD release to hit North American shelves, and the company says the complete release will be 57 minutes.

High Def Digest included some tech specs of the movie, which are, "DTS-HD Master Lossless Audio and standard DTS 5.1 surround options. (Note also that 'Uncommon Bach' is compatible only with HD DVD players with HDMI or optical outputs.)"

Amazon has the movie on pre-sale for $19.95 now, and there is no word if any video material or bonus features will accompany the main track. There is also no word on whether a Blu ray version is in the making.
