Warner Classics

Profile:

Multinational label.
Label Code: LC 2822 / LC 02822
The Warner Classics imprint originated from the old Warner Classics International division of the Warner Music Group, before reorganization within the group made it part of Warner Music UK Ltd.. For a few years in the late 2000s, Warner Classics and Warner Jazz were merged to form Warner Classics & Jazz.
In 2012, Universal Music Group (UMG) bought EMI. Approval of the merger by the EU (in 2013) required that the combined company divest itself “of one third of its total operations to other companies with a proven track record in the music industry.” (Wikipedia)
In 2014 Warner Classics absorbed EMI Classics and Virgin Classics, as well as reviving the Erato label. Warner Classics moved its headquarters to Paris as part of the Classics division reorganization under Parlophone Records Ltd..

While Warner Music Group owns the former EMI and Virgin Classics catalogs, UMG retains the EMI and Virgin trademarks.
