Ermitage is one of the most long-lasting brands of the independent classical discography.
Born in the mid-eighties with the publication of some vinyl records by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, he later released CDs of the world’s leading opera, symphonic and chamber artists.
Along with names such as Rubinstein, Callas, Pollini, Benedetti Michelangeli and Segovia, over the years the label’s production - distributed in Europe, Japan and the USA - has expanded to artists such as Lucio Dalla, Eugenio Finardi or Stefano Bollani.
In the catalog, in addition to CD titles, Ermitage offers for some years reissues in vinyl 180 grams of jazz classics (with names such as John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Chet Baker), classical music (Italian Quartet, I Musici and others) and of the Italian songwriting (Endrigo, Gaber, Jannacci, Tenco) with remarkable success .
Ermitage now has a library of over 400 titles marketed on its own and under license. He also produces editorial series for the most important Italian newspapers such as Il Corriere della Sera and La Repubblica and for other editorial groups such as Mondadori, RCS, Hobby & Work.
