New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Nice write-up! My understanding is that Pentatone operates. . .

. . . on the "patronage" business model. ;-)



etc.

In this respect, I think Mr. Getty is the opposite of composer Ernest Chausson, who actually suppressed performances of his own music because he felt that his wealth gave him an unfair advantage over other composers of his time, and he (Chausson) also felt that if his music were really compelling for audiences, it would survive in the repertoire without the infusion of his additional cash! ;-)

In any case, I believe I read that Pentatone's operational structure was written up in the Harvard Business Review. It's a nice business model as long as it lasts - assuming you can get it established in the first place! ;-)
