We’re proud to see releases by PARMA artists earn spots on Gramophone’s Critics’ Choice list, Textura’s Top Recordings of 2025, and nominations in the International Classical Music Awards. These honors highlight the exceptional artistry and global impact of PARMA’s composers and performers.
INCANTATIONS: Gramophone Critics’ Choice
INCANTATIONS from Sirius Quartet and Navona Records ranked among Gramophone Magazine’s “favorite classical recordings of 2025,” becoming a Critics’ Choice album for the prestigious publication.
“Eight original works (two apiece) by the members of the spirited, superlative Sirius Quartet — with a meditative arrangement as coda — make up their vibrant, vivid, wonderful album,”
– Guy Rickards, Gramophone Magazine
Seven Releases by PARMA Artists Named in Textura’s Top Recordings for 2025
Seven albums spanning the Navona and Albany Records catalog were included in Textura’s Top 20 Recordings of 2025. These are “the recordings to which we repeatedly returned and which repeatedly rewarded that return,” says Textura.
MYTHOLOGY SUITE Nominated for ICMA Award
MYTHOLOGY SUITE from Reed Chamberlin, Nevada Wind Ensemble, and Navona Records received a nomination in the upcoming International Classical Music Awards (ICMA). The album is a chronological cross-section through the ensemble’s highly diverse repertoire: vibrant, unapologetically modern, a determined confluence of 20th century serious music and contemporary 21st-century composition.
Winners will be announced in January 2026.
