ANALEKTA is a Greek word which can be translated as "a collection of the finest works". Since the company’s inception in 1988, founder and President Mario Labbé and his team of dedicated people have worked diligently to represent its corporate name.
Analekta was founded with the goal of becoming one of Canada's leading record labels. 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 developed an association with the country's finest musicians and musical organizations. Analekta's recordings are synonymous with fine interpretations, originality and excellence. Its catalogue of works and the collaboration of these artists have combined to make Analekta the most important independent classical record company in Canada.
Analekta has produced more than 400 discs, representing the significant works in the Medieval, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Impressionist and Contemporary repertoires. More than 200 Canadian musicians have contributed to the excellence of the catalogue. And, because of a systematic distribution system, Analekta’s recordings are heard internationally over the largest networks.
