BIS Records was founded in 1973 by Robert von Bahr, with the aim of helping world-class Swedish musicians to reach international audiences. Starting out with a Revox tape-recorder, two state-of-the-art microphones and a pair of non-magnetic scissors he immediately impressed connoisseurs by the natural sound of his recordings, and single-handedly built up a catalogue that could be exported all over the world.

BIS is now a flourishing and much respected label with more than 2,000 titles available and the only large record label to keep all its recordings constantly available. Going against the trend of the classical music business, BIS is expanding in various ways. This development is partly due to the universally recognized superior sound quality of its recordings, which include a growing number of high fidelity surround sound productions. The company’s reputation has attracted an impressive list of artists, including young high profile soloists such as pianist Yevgeny Sudbin and clarinettist Martin Frost.
