About BIS
Founded in 1973, BIS Records is one of the most highly respected classical labels in the world, praised |
- for the sound quality of its recordings, whether released on regular CDs or as Hybrid SACDs with optional surround sound
- for the versatility and variety of its catalogue, which to date includes more than 1900 titles - BIS is the only large record label with a strict non-deletion policy - with repertoire ranging from the most contemporary to music of the Middle Ages, and from mainstream classical (the Three Bs ...) to the downright esoteric
|
|
 |
- for having the commitment to undertake - and complete! - projects of daunting complexity, such as the Sibelius Edition with its 68 discs documenting every note the Finnish master ever wrote, and the 55-disc series of Bach's sacred cantatas, recorded in a chapel in Kobe, Japan, by the Bach Collegium Japan and Masaaki Suzuki
- for being a truly international label - with its headquarters in Sweden, BIS makes recordings all over the world, including Singapore, Sydney, São Paulo, Minneapolis, Rotterdam, Cologne, Vienna ... and a certain medieval church 80km north of Stockholm, loved by musicians such as Dame Emma Kirkby, Ronald Brautigam and New York Polyphony.
