OnClassical ("On[Line]Classical[Music] or even On (about) Classical) is a 100% independent project dedicated to classical music. The Philosophy grants to the customer a lot of permissions commonly denied by recording companies or internet music stores:

Perfect quality.

We distribute a selection of our best audiophile recordings, comparable or even superior to that of the major record labels.

Master files.

We offer you CD quality files (44.1 kHz * 16bit WAV files):
- you are assured that you have no distorted audio when you burn tracks to CD's;
- you have the exact copy of the master recording as it was originally produced.

Set your price.

You can decide the price of the download of our recordings from as little as 5.00 euros per album.
