Our mission
Global revenue (Billion USD)
Streaming has become the leading digital music channel across the industry. It is projected that by 2030, streaming will make up 70% of global music revenue. So far, classical music has missed out on the streaming revolution and only shares 10% of the revenue pie. Primephonic is working to give classical music a larger representation of that revenue share. It is therefore, paramount, that we fix the streaming challenge for classical music in the industry. We are reinventing the classical music experience, to reignite a global passion for the genre.
