Alain Van Kerckhoven Editeur

Based in Brussels since 1989, our publishing company is devoted to New Consonant Music. 17 different nationalities were represented by more than 50 composers, whose works are played and produced in an even larger number of countries around the world.

Having said that, we are deliberately choosy and are intent on staying modest in size and remaining accessible to composers and listeners alike. For in an era of mega-mergers and major upheavals, we believe that selectivity and smallness of size are the keys to retaining a catalogue with a strong identity, whilst also remaining suitably responsive as a publisher.

Accordingly, we were the first publisher of classical music to offer a website featuring audio extracts of our music. Indeed, we are enthusiastic technophiles, and keep our business in tune with the times by being active in digital printing, ecommerce and the production of electronic music scores.

We are equally upbeat about our catalogue and have worked together with prestigious artists, labels, music academies, festivals and competitions : the Queen Elizabeth International Music Competition of Belgium, Musica Nuova Festival, the Juiliard School of Music, Naxos, Mikhaïl Bezverkhny, Marc Grauwels, Francis Orval, Ronald Van Spaendonck being just a few examples.

In a nutshell, we like what we publish and our job is to convey that enjoyment.
