Antarctica Records

Record label of contemporary classical music.

Genetically, the new label Antarctica may be a daughter of Evil Penguin Classic, but in actual reality it is the Penguin’s biotope and playground. Antarctica is a landing place for rare line-ups (such as the four violoncellos of the Tansman Quartett, the new label’s first-born), but also a breeding ground for unusual one-offs and experiments (such as baroque ensemble Red Herring’s exploration of b

aroque gestures in French music). Since Antarctica prefers projects to persons, it will be a safe haven for daredevils, a home to repertoire oozing from the corners and creases of music history.

Another loving review for Brecht Valckenaers:

"Those willing to surrender to this flow, and to the enigma, or shall we say the latent contradiction, that comes with it, will learn a great deal from this compelling album, which pairs new music by Brecht Valckenaers with contrasting classics of modernism."
- Helmut Peters, Piano News

Another beautiful review for Annelies Van Parys!

5 tuning forks in Diapason and these praising words by Jérémie Bigorie: "Son écriture pour orchestre, trés colorée (sonorités mouillées des percussions, nappage délicat des vents, harmoniques vibratiles des cordes), suit quant a elle les traces de Kaija Saariaho. La compositrice belge manifeste toutefois un attachement certain au « cadre rassurant » des formes consacrées. [...] Une belle (premiere) monographie."
