CSO back on radio, and starting CD label

All is not decay in the classical music world, after all. This is certainly a good sign, and launching an in-house CD label with Mahler 3rd is a nice kick-off...

The London Symphony has been recording on their own in-house label for a few years and the Los Angeles Philharmonic (ever innovators in the orchestra world) are releasing on iTunes.

Good to see the CSO taking the plunge into our brave new world. . .

Best,

The CSO will launch its new in-house recording label—“CSO Resound”—in early 2007. The label’s debut offering will be physical CD and digital download releases of the CSO’s critically acclaimed October 2006 performances of Mahler’s Symphony No. 3 under the direction of CSO Principal Conductor Bernard Haitink, featuring mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung, members of the Chicago Symphony Chorus, and the Chicago Children’s Choir, contingent upon agreement with other artistic partners, including the American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA) as representative of the CSO Chorus. CSO CDs and digital downloads will be available through www.cso.org, iTunes, www.amazon.com, and a wide array of distribution channels through a new CSO partnership with IODA (Independent Online Distribution Alliance).

Is the "contingency" I highlighted an impediment?

Regards,

Richard Oliver

I hardly think it's any impediment - just new territory, and thus requiring some paperwork to make sure the chorus gets paid.

Can't wait to hear the CD!

great news, St. Louis did some with Vonk that way and the SPCO just started one too. that may be the way of the future for classical music recording.

wfmt knows how to record in that hall better then anyone else. hope that they are involved with this.

This is very good news! Thank you for sharing. I can't wait for 2007 for things to get rolling. I'd love to delve into that Miraculous Mandarin with both feet.
