Description: | In 2000 two Edinburgh University graduates, Paul Baxter and Kevin Findlan, approached forward-thinking individuals for aid in founding a classical record label in Edinburgh. Their aim was to promote the already-rich artistic activities that take place in Scotland and in Edinburgh during its famous International Festival in August. Together, they worked to build a catalogue focused on chamber music, choral, vocal, and instrumental repertoire from the Renaissance to the present day. Delphian has since become one of the fastest-growing independent labels in the UK. Now committed to producing at least one title per month, Delphian is participating in exciting distribution negotiations and has an innovative approach to licensing and format cross-over, including DVD. During 2005 a renewed funding initiative will seek out sponsorship partners to underpin Delphian's growth. Delphian's special relationship with the national and music press has grown out of a conscientious commitment to making new artists and their works known. Particularly exciting is Delphian's forthcoming series of 'new music' releases. Acclaimed for its recordings of the contemporary composers Richard Allain, Kenneth Leighton, James MacMillan, Stuart MacRae, Ronald Stevenson and Judith Weir, to name but a few, Delphian looks forward to new recordings comprising the music of Judith Bingham, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies, Gabriel Jackson, Nigel Osborne, and Giles Swayne. | |
