ICA CLASSICS is a division of the management agency International Classical Artists Ltd (ICA). The label features both archive material from sources such as the BBC, WDR in Cologne and the Boston Symphony Orchestra (the LEGACY series), as well as performances from the agency’s own artists recorded in prestigious venues around the world (the LIVE series).
