Channel Classics Records is a quality record label based in the Netherlands. Its founder, producer and recording engineer is Jared Sacks. He grew up in Boston, Massachusetts, and studied French Horn at the Oberlin Conservatory and the Amsterdam Conservatory. In 1987, after 15 years of experience playing French Horn, Jared Sacks decided to turn his hobby of recording music into a profession.The label started in 1990 and he named it Channel Classics because of the street that he lived on in Amsterdam; the Kanaalstraat (‘Channel Street’).

The label has since moved to Herwijnen, where a small and dedicated team created and promoted the albums for many years. In 2021, Channel Classics Records was aquired by ‘Outhere Music’. Jared Sacks and the team of Outhere Music work closely together with the artists, managements and distributors around the world to make, release and promote recordings.

Over the years, an impressive catalogue was built and praised for its perfect combination of sound and performance, winning numerous Awards from leading classical music magazines such as Gramophone, BBC Music Magazine, and Diapason.
