Sony Classical - About (1406 words) |
 | Sony Classical, a division of Sony Music Entertainment, and a world leader in the field of recorded music, was formed in January 1989, after the purchase of CBS Records by Sony Corporation. |
| Sony Classical also seeks out innovative projects like Abbà Pater, an album released in 1999 in cooperation with the Vatican featuring the voice of Pope John Paul II with contemporary inspirational music. |
| Sony Classical's partnership with the film industry has lead to the release of original motion picture soundtrack recordings of Sense and Sensibility, Hamlet, The Tango Lesson, Paradise Road, Immortal Beloved, The Mask of Zorro, Dancing at Lughnasa, Hilary and Jackie, and the award-winning Shakespeare in Love. |
| Classical gasp - The Boston Globe (1280 words) |

| Stratton -- and Sony Classical and the rest of the major classical companies -- may be onto something. |
| And Sony Classical's Stratton -- with his crystalline countertenor and manicured arrangements -- is in the end as watered down as the crossover titans who've preceeded him. |
