The Early Music Hifi Sessions

She herself is one of the superstars of early music, both on stage and on streaming services: Christina Pluhar. She also continues to make CDs, with great success. How do live and recorded music relate to each other for Pluhar? What role have vinyl and CD played in her own musical development? Which fragments does she want us to hear? And does she have a thing for expensive high-end hi-fi, or does she find technology merely incidental?
