ABOUT US  

 

ALESSA Records was founded in 2004.
After 30 years of experience in the music industry Peter Guschelbauer decided to launch a label with music of the highest quality.

The name "Alessa Records" derives from the nickname of Peter Guschelbauer's daughter, 18 months old at the time of launch.

 
Peter Guschelbauer
 

Peter Guschelbauer, the owner of Alessa Classica, is looking back on 35 years experience in the music business and went through many developments. As a musician he started to learn flute at the age of 6 years and with 8 he started with piano lessons. The terribly conservative education in the early sixties was not very motivating, but he could stand it for at least 7 years. As he heard for the first time the guitar of Jimi Hendrix it was over with the classical education, a guitar was needed...

His heart belongs till today Jazz and Blues, Rock and ethnic music.
A first reconciliation with classical music took place in the early nineties, as he recorded some productions with classical trained musicians for his label PG Records, and he realised that there was growing up a completely new generation of musicians, which were interested in many different musical stiles and did not see their only right to exist in reproducing music that is sometimes much more then 200 years old.
With the purchase of a new BÖSENDORFER concert grand piano we will broaden our horizon and produce and market classical music, especially music of the 20th century.
