MERIDIAN RECORDS are the original experts in ‘Natural Sound Recording’ TM
In 1977, at a dinner party, our founders the late John Shuttleworth and the late Francis Loring presented their vision for an independent classical label that would reproduce the concert-hall experience as closely as possible with using just 2 microphones.
47 years on we hold a clutch of industry awards, including the honour of being the first independent label to win a GRAMOPHONE award, and we continue to astound listeners and artists with our stylish and captivating recordings using our revered ‘natural sound’ technique.
