Heritage
The Heritage series, launched by Alia Vox in 2007, aims to offer a fresh vision of the recordings that Jordi Savall, Montserrat Figueras and their ensembles made for the Astrée-Auvidis label between 1977 and 1996. This unique discographic legacy is remastered and edited with the meticulous care that has been Alia Vox's hallmark since the label was founded in 1998.
Both past and present productions featuring the Alia Vox artists' performances will thus be available under a single banner, allowing listeners to measure the breadth and continuity of their work over more than 30 years.
