Biography
ECM is an independent record label founded by Karl Egger, Manfred Eicher and Manfred Scheffner in Munich in 1969. While ECM is best known for jazz music, the label has released a variety of recordings, and ECM's artists often refuse to acknowledge boundaries between genres. ECM's motto is "the most beautiful sound next to silence", taken from a 1971 review of ECM releases in Coda, a Canadian jazz magazine.

ECM New Series was launched in 1984, and has become a platform for recordings of composed music that ranges from the pre-Baroque era to the present day. The label's distinguished performers include Kim Kashkashian, András Schiff, Gidon Kremer as well as The Hilliard Ensemble.
