[The gramophone: Volume 80, Issues 963-966; Volume 80, Issues 963-966 2003 "Dieter Oehms, former managing director of Arte Nova Classics, has founded his own label, Oehms Classics. Oehms stepped down as managing director of budget-price label Arte Nova last year after it was fully integrated into parent company BMG Classics, which bought his shares. He has now attracted some former Arte Nova artists - including pianist Alfredo Perl, baritone Roman Trekel and conductor Stanislaw Skrowaczewski - into the studio for his own eponymous label. Oehms also plans to re-release certain currently unavailable recordings from the Arte Nova catalogue, including recordings by the Lucern Festival Strings and the Mozarteum Orchestra Salzburg, which he had produced."]
