Do you look at recording labels when buying classical music? What label is your favorite and which one is your least favorite. I, for one have just discovered Telarc, and from what they say in thier liner notes, they are unique. For one, they don't over mike the sessions, and mix the music directly on to the disc, rather than using tape. You can hear a difference. I have also heard that Angel, Deutche Gramophone and Seraphim are also good labels for classical.2 responses total.
I've found the quality of BIS recordings consistently excellent. But it's a small company and the owner is a perfectionist. They are also quite expensive.
You can listen to all the different labels at the public library and decide for yourself if there is any difference which you can notice. I am not very perceptive about these things, I enjoy most classical music even not played all that well, perhaps I am lucky. SKR might be able to give hints.
