Schwann (record label)

Schwann was a German classical music record label based in Düsseldorf and originally connected with the Verlag Schwann publishing house.

The record company made a number of recordings in cooperation with Abbot Carl de Nys,[2] and the Schwann Musica Mundi series with Musique en Wallonie.

Director Dieter Heuler was the director of Schwann both as part of Verlag Schwann,[3][4] and also after its acquisition by Koch International in 1988 when it was renamed Koch-Schwann.

In 2002 Universal Classics acquired Koch-Schwann's catalogue and some of the Schwann and Koch-Schwann recordings began to reappear on Deutsche Grammophon's budget Eloquence imprint.

Heuler retained Schwann's VMS signature, and several uncompleted projects.
