ANALEKTA is Greek for “a collection of the finest works.” Since the inception of the company in 1988, founder and President Mario Labbé and his team of dedicated people have worked diligently to represent its corporate name.
In 1988, he produced his first recording on the Analekta label. Twenty years later, Mario Labbé still leads the company he founded. Analekta has added more than 350 titles to its catalogue, which he has dedicated to the promotion of Canadian talent by recording more than 200 Canadian musicians, a large number of whom are from Quebec.
For many, this was the first step to an international career, and all have honoured the company’s high standards. André Laplante, Aline Kutan, Daniel Taylor, Karina Gauvin, Lyne Fortin, Marie-Nicole Lemieux, James Ehnes, the Gryphon Trio, Alain Lefèvre and Jean-Philippe Tremblay are some of the Analekta artists who have become major players at the international level. Mario Labbé indeed understood that recording wasn’t enough, that a national and international distribution network had to be assured. Thanks to unrelenting effort backed by patience and know-how, Analekta has assured many of its artists distribution in over ten countries.
A true visionary, Mario Labbé has been, is, and will continue to be an important player in the promotion of Quebec’s musical culture and the recognition of its talents.
Analekta has become the largest independent classical record company in Canada. Being the recipient of many distinguished prizes, notably for the quality of its recordings and the rigorous musicianship of its artists, Analekta has earned a reputation of excellence on the international music scene. The company is now considered a benchmark within the Canadian music industry and a true gem of Canadian culture.
The driving force behind the label has always been its musicians, exceptional artists who would become Analekta’s guarantee of excellence. Over the years, the label has therefore developed an association with the country’s finest musicians and musical organizations who have always provided fine performances, originality and excellence. Analekta’s selection of the finest works featuring the finest Canadian musicians continues to flourish. More than ever, Analekta is synonymous with excellence.
