ÆON
Classical recordings arouse specific feelings in most people, because of the desires and promises of eternity they enfold. For æon (from the Greek for “eternity”), what matters is the integrity and genuine purpose of each artist involved. æon hopes to take a new look at repertoire, giving pride of place to the performers with whom the label aims to develop a genuine strategy regarding the composers. As a result, the working methods of the æon team reflect the search for consistency and clarity, and each contributor brings his or her distinctive mark and skills which, combined with the work of the artists and composers, undeniably forge the identity of the æon label. Arcana comes to Allegro Classical via OutHere.

ARTE VERUM
Barbara Hendricks created Arte Verum in January 2006 and now records exclusively for her label. "I created Arte Verum because it is possible for artists today to control their creative endeavors from the beginnings in the rehearsal room, to the concert hall, beyond into the recording studio, and then directly to the public. The technological advances that have made this step possible would have been unthinkable just ten years ago. Arte Verum will reflect the passion that I have for the recital repertoire of lieder and mélodie, chamber music, orchestral song, and jazz, as well as baroque and contemporary music. I have always been a performing artist who records, with the belief that a recording should only be the natural by-product of my actual performing repertoire, the result of a long process of many performances and much time—sometime years—spent with the scores. It is very important for me that the repertoire of my recordings should truthfully reflect my actual performing activity. During more than 30 years I have had the privilege and freedom to perform and record the repertoire that I love with partners that I respect and admire. However, until now the life of my work after the actual recording was no longer in my hands, and now this will change. Every aspect of my work can be produced with the same gratitude, joy, and integrity.” – Barbara Hendricks

BERLIN CLASSICS
Berlin Classics is a treasure trove of important recordings: significant historical contributions from the musical centers of Leipzig, Dresden, and Berlin as well as momentous new recordings featuring both established performers and eager new artists. In 1946, Soviet authorities issued a license to the record company to record and sell records using the imprint “Lied der Zeit.” After this was transformed into the state-owned VEB Deutsche Schallplatten, the ETERNA label became a state monopoly for classical music in the former German Democratic Republic. In 1990, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the company privatized. As the successor to ETERNA, edel Classics today owns a back catalog that is the finest documentation of musical life in East Germany since 1945. In addition to Berlin, the central regions of Saxony, Saxe-Anhalt, and Thuringia have been world-renowned cultural centers for centuries. These splendid recordings feature internationally acclaimed soloists, choirs, orchestras, and conductors. Jessye Norman, Peter Schreier, Kurt Masur, Eugen Jochum, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Ludwig Güttler, Herbert Blomstedt, Kurt Sanderling, the State Orchestras of Dresden and Berlin, the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, the Dresden Philharmonic, the Radio Choirs of Leipzig and Berlin, the Choir of the Dresden Kreuzkirche, and St Thomas’s Choir Leipzig are just a few of the artists and ensembles that have contributed to this wealth of well over 2,000 catalog entries. At the same time, established stars like Emma Kirkby, Christiane Oelze, Lynne Dawson, Ruth Ziesak, Sharon Kam, Ragna Schirmer, Sebastian Knauer, Jens Peter Maintz, Thomas Zehetmair, Heinrich Schiff, Ludwig Güttler, and Concerto Köln have recorded, and continue to do so, with edel Classics.

COL LEGNO
In 1982, Wolfgang Rihm and Heinz Winbeck persuaded Wulf Weinmann to found a music label dedicated solely to new and very new classical music. In 1985 the first album came off the presses: a digital recording of Hummel’s opera Blaubart. A year later, the first Lachenmann recording was released (Gran Torso and Salut für Caudwell). Col legno soon became synonymous with first CD recordings of works by the most important contemporary composers. The foundation on which Col legno is built is contemporary in a broad sense: a desire to make music that emphasizes the sensual. This approach naturally brings about an expansion of repertoire in various directions. Col legno’s future releases will encompass outrageous, revolutionary music from past centuries as well as other types of music that defy categorization, ranging from the “Schubertlieder” recorded by East Tyrolean band Franui to interpretations of classical music by outstanding jazz performers such as Dave Taylor, and even a “pop” album by electronic composer Wolfgang Mitterer.

CRD RECORDS
CRD Records was founded in 1965 by Graham Pauncefort to import and distribute specialized Continental and American catalogs. As the company grew, it was a logical step for CRD to start its own classical catalog. The company’s first releases were made in 1973. Simon Lawman, who had studied at the Royal Academy of Music, joined the company in 1970, was appointed Artistic Director in 1973, and was responsible for all recordings until his untimely passing in 1986. The distribution and recording activities were split into separate companies in 1974, and the distribution company passed out of the hands of the principals when it was taken over by a European-based investment company in 1978. CRD continues to record interesting and unjustly neglected works, seek out outstanding young artists, and record standard classics when it feels a new approach can be justified.

Relationships are developed with artists, resulting in some interesting series—and sometimes fascinating diversions.

KAIROS
KAIROS, the Vienna-based music label founded in 1999 by Barbara Fränzen and Peter Oswald, focuses exclusively on the promotion of new artists. Apart from the careful selection of works and artists, highly sophisticated sound engineering and a modern presentation, supported by the cover designs of Austrian painter Jakob Gasteiger, are essential constituents of the overall concept. KAIROS means the moment of successful fulfillment. The ancient Greeks used this word to describe the satisfied correspondence of the here with the now, the “opportune moment,” which is encountered as fate and demands to be used in a decisive way. KAIROS seeks to preserve that time of fulfillment that we call music. The label’s intention is to capture, for listeners’ pleasure, music that is contemporary and opens up new experiences for contemporary minds in the form of interpretations that have grasped the auspiciousness of the moment. The moment, however beautiful it may be, does not tarry. However, it can recur, and although we are no longer exactly the same as before, the moment is able to move and transform us once again. In this sense KAIROS seeks to give back to its contemporaries the music of the present and the endless adventure of listening that it has to offer, so that the auspicious opportunity of the moment is not allowed to slip by unused. Each CD is thus a total work of art, accompanied by a booklet whose essayistic, analytic, and literary reviews approximate the intangible in music, and they come in both an elaborate and practical case. KAIROS presents music to accompany you across the threshold to new ages.

MELODIYA
For 47 years, Melodiya has collected over 60,000 unique recordings, including classical music, folklore, works by composers of the former Soviet republics, and masterpieces performed by outstanding Soviet conductors, ensembles, orchestras, and music theatres. Melodiya was founded in 1964 as a state-owned company for production, storage, and distribution of sound recordings. As a successor of the All-Union Studio of Gramophone Recording, Melodiya was the only sound recording company in the country until the disintegration of the Soviet Union. This disintegration could not help but have an impact on Melodiya’s activities, but in 2003 new impetus for development was linked with the coming of a young leadership team as a result of an open competition announced by the Ministry of Property Relations of the Russian Federation. Today, Melodiya is a fast-moving company that, on the one hand, tries to preserve its unique archives by restoring and releasing recordings of the Soviet era on modern media, and on the other hand, actively develops to meet all new conditions of the music market. Melodiya releases its recordings on CD, but plans to begin producing DVDs and vinyl as well. Melodiya comes to Allegro Classical via Codaex.
