audite's historic archive releases enjoy an excellent reputation worldwide. A current review in the March issue of the German journal Kulturspiegel shows, that the latest historical release Portrait Johanna Martzy is no exception. The competent critic dignifies the unprecedented remastering of label boss Ludger Böckenhoff: "Mit der akustischen Ehrenrettung dieser großen ungarischen Geigerin ist Remastering-Experte Ludger Böckenhoff wieder mal eine kleine Großtat gelungen: So lupenrein [...] das schöne Dokument anmutiger Perfektion."
The latest audite production "Originals and beyond" with the Piano Duo Takahashi | Lehmann was honored in March issue of the trade journal STEREO as "Audiophiles Highlight". Additionally it was awarded as "Empfehlung des Monats" by FONO FORUM. We are very excited about this appreciation!
The latest audite production "Ludwig van Beethoven - Complete Works for Piano Trio, Vol. 1" with the Swiss Piano Trio will be reviewed today, 9th February 2015, from 3.05 - 5.45 pm on WDR 3 TonArt.

"Music needs emotions" - under this topic audite chief Ludger Böckenhoff discussed with Matthias Schröder of Westfalenspiegel about the successful concept and upcoming projects of the label.
Here you can read the full report from the January issue of Westfalenspiegel !
Franziska Pietsch makes her CD debut with audite, to be followed by many more productions, both in chamber music and with orchestra. With her moving GDR past, the personality of an audite artist comes to the fore for the first time in the marketing of a CD.
At the end of the year the Swiss Piano Trio has a prestigious concert in its calendar: The three musicians will perform as a soloist ensemble in the virtuoso Triple Concerto "Episodes Concertantes" op. 45 by Swiss-Russian composer Paul Juon together with the Russian National Orchestra in the Main Hall of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow. This concerto is the only Triple Concerto of the romantic period. You may call this music a fortunate combination of a piano concerto by Rachmaninov and the double concerto by Brahms.
In January audite releases Vol. I of Beethoven: Complete Works for Piano Trio with the Swiss Piano Trio. The first CD presents the astonishing development and spectrum of the genre with Beethoven's first (Op. 1,1 of 1795) and last (Op. 97 of 1814) trios. For a preview watch the video with impressions and interviews from the recording session and excerpts of the new release.
