N EWSL ET TER IMZ NEW MEMBERS The IMZ would like to extend a warm welcome to its latest new members! For a start, the company profiles…
PREISER RECORDS Once upon a time… And Haydn for a start: In 1947 the company’s founder Otto G. Preiser (*1920 in Vienna) met the American musicologist H.C. Robbins Landon, with whom, in 1949 he set out to establish the Haydn Society aiming at making available a complete edition of Haydn’s works on record… After the closing of the society’s Viennese office, Otto Preiser purchased the exclusive rights of distribution for Austria, finding himself at once in the midst of a flourishing business of record retailing. Speciality: Historical recordings. Consequently, in 1952 he launched his own label. PREISER RECORDS saw the light of day… including the most sophisticated selection of "Kabarett aus Wien", as well as the acclaimed series “Lebendige Vergangenheit” (launched 1966). And the success story of the “lilac label” continues… Today, the PREISER-catalogue is one of the most distinguished and reliable sources for a detailed
documentary of the great voices and musicians of the past century, for these days and the future… Cherishing and cultivating its expert niche in the market with unrivalled care, accuracy, and commitment to optimal quality, PREISER RECORDS can proudly stand their ground next to the huge and multinational “giants” in the shifting business world. Still, collectors and fetishists of the incomparable sound of the historical from all over the world eagerly wait for and gratefully welcome with enthusiasm the current new PREISER-releases… www.preiserrecords.at
