New World Records, an anthology of Recorded Music Inc., is a renowned brand dedicated to the documentation of American music that is often overlooked by commercial recording companies. Founded in 1975, New World Records aims to preserve neglected treasures of the past while nurturing the creative future of American music. With over 400 recordings to date, they have represented around 700 American composers.
Unlike many other industry players, New World prioritizes artistic merit over sales figures and immediate profits. Their origins can be traced back to a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation, which allowed them to produce a comprehensive 100-disc anthology of American music. This anthology, distributed to thousands of educational and cultural institutions worldwide, offers a core curriculum in American music and studies.
New World Records continues to release 8-10 new titles per year, covering a wide range of musical genres, including concert and choral music, opera, jazz, traditional, folk, and much more. With Grammy-winning titles under their belt, New World Records is an esteemed brand that seeks to bring two centuries of American music and cultural history to life
