Erato | 1 to 0 of 0 results
Erato Records is a record label founded in 1953 as Disques Erato by Philippe Loury to promote French classical music. Loury was head of éditions musicales Costallat. His first releases in France were licensed from the Haydn Society of Boston, and he made Erato’s first recording, in January 1953 Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s Te Deum with Les Jeunesses Muslcales.
In 2013, the label was revived with WEA’s acquisition of EMI Classics and Virgin Classics, which became part of Warner Classics. Erato absorbed the Virgin Classics artists roster and catalogue (the EMI Classics label’s artists roster and catalogue was absorbed into the Warner Classics label) but not the rights to the EMI or Virgin names. In October 2013 several of Virgin Classics key artists—Alexandre Tharaud, Natalie Dessay, Diana Damrau, Renaud Capuçon, and Philippe Jaroussky—appeared on new Erato titles that had already been in production by Virgin Classics/EMI.

Use this page to search for more specific requirements. Any combination of criteria can be used.
We would recommend keeping your search as simple as possible - this will help in returning the maximum number of results.
The following tips may assist you in your search:
- Avoid using punctuation marks and spaces when searching for catalogue numbers - all of these are removed for ease of use.
- Try using just one word in each of the fields you use. For example, only type the surname of an artist rather than their whole name.
- The keyword box will search the entire database, including all extra information attached to a product. This is best used for very specific words, or for adding an extra word to narrow down your search results.
- The genre box is useful for wider searching, but is not recommended for specific searches, as not every product has been assigned a genre. Please note that concertos are included under Orchestral and that Chamber includes all small ensembles of two musicians or more.
