Warner Classics is delighted to announce that trumpet virtuoso Alison Balsom has signed a new five-album deal with Warner Classics. This will build on her rich recording catalogue of 15 albums for Warner Classics (formerly EMI Classics), and a relationship that has spanned 20 years.
Alain Lanceron, President, Warner Classics & Erato commented, “Alison is a true advocate for her instrument. In the course of a relationship that now dates back 20 years, she has enriched Warner Classics’ catalogue with recordings that cover an extraordinary range. Whether approaching a baroque concerto, a modern classic, a jazz standard or a large-scale project, Alison is exceptional not just for her technique and musicianship, but for her integrity, creativity and inspiring sense of purpose. We are delighted and excited to be entering this new phase in our collaboration.”
The first album – Quiet City – will be released worldwide on 26 August 2022 - you can read about it here.
