Musicaphon

German label
Label Code: LC 0522 / LC 00522
At the end of the 1950s, Bärenreiter-Musicaphon. Intention in both cases was to release parts of the own published catalogue on soundcarriers.

After Merseburger had to terminate his Tonkunstverlag in 1963, Bärenreiter took over the label Disco-Center, founded in 1965.

In 1994, the musicologist Dr. Rainer Kahleyss (Kassel) bought both labels, in 1996 also the distribution company, now known as Klassik Center Kassel, from Bärenreiter. Since then is released on Cantete sacred music, on Musicaphon mundane music from early Baroque up to our time. Elder but important releases from the back catalogue are also newly edited on CD continuously.

This company is member of CLASS Association of Classical Independents in e.V.
