As the Krichevsky for “Melody” meeting records Richter was the first in many years, a major project in terms of investment. “The project is really ambitious – and labor costs, and the financial part. Given the economic realities – the continuing market decline of physical media on a background of extremely slow growth in digital sales – we are for a long time thought about to get involved in the history of the Collector’s Edition release in the premium segment of the market. At the same time we wanted to also demonstrate the potential of the “Melodies” as the guardian of the musical history of our country over the past 50 years. After all, during that time managed to create and then save a unique library. In addition, the “Melody” is one of the nation’s largest holders – in terms of the catalog, we are comparable with Western majors.

Today – the official start of sales, the acquisition of all of the information has already appeared on the site “Melodies” – said Krichevsky
