Artists choice

What's the meaning of "Artists Choice":
This title is descriptive of what the program entails. The Artists in this row of productions decide solely over the content of their CD's, and so the Listener gets a piece which is not influenced by commercial interests, but reflects the pure taste of musical professionals. Under the artistic leadership of Matthias Müller, this series "Artists Choice" is realised and developed through the pure thought of art and culminates in a very interesting overall concept for the knowledgeable lover of music, which is finally precipitated in this CD collection. Each CD depicts the personality of each of the artists and their subjective life experiences plays a major roll. Artists Choice, is grown from the conviction, that Art and how it is conveyed, represents a very personal concern. Music is at its most convincing when the listener knows who and with which thoughts and feels, stands behind the works of art. The individual CDs stand as personal testimonies of the Artists. The program is international. The artists who choose to participated in this series have to fulfil a high artistic standard.
Matthias Müller and Occam records have set, consciously herewith, in a time of constant commercialisation even in the classical field , a counterpoint, in order to give the artists themselves and through them art a chance for further development. The number of editions will remain few and sales will be solely through the Internet and selected specialised dealers.
