Label news: Sonya quits Sony

Label news: Sonya quits Sony

The enterprising Bulgarian soprano Sonya Yoncheva has shifted her recording work from Sony Classical to Naive, an interesting move. Here’s what they say on social media:

naïve is honored to announce its collaboration with internationally renowned soprano @sonyayoncheva for the release of her album, GEORGE. This profoundly personal project, inspired by the life and artistic universe of George Sand*, will be unveiled on January 24, 2025. As a prelude, the first single, Leoncavallo’s Nuit de décembre, is now available.

Sonya Yoncheva said :
“I am delighted to start working with naïve for my upcoming recital album, GEORGE, and my most recent aria album, The Courtesan. GEORGE will be released in collaboration with my own company, @sy11event, while naïve will, from now on, be responsible for the distribution of The Courtesan. It is a great pleasure to work with the fantastic team at naïve, and I am looking forward to joining forces for these two projects that are so dear to my heart.”

@aurelia_naive, Head of A&R at naïve classique, said:
“It is with immense joy to collaborate with Sonya Yoncheva, one of the most extraordinary voices of our time. For many years, we have admired her impeccable artistry, vocal brilliance, and magnetic stage presence. We are deeply honored by her trust and are committed to providing the utmost support for the release of GEORGE, a new project that so beautifully encapsulates her artistic vision and celebrates the timeless figure of George Sand. We will also take over the distribution of The Courtesan, Sonya’s last album, a true jewel gathering the most beautiful opera arias. Welcome at naïve, Dear Sonya!”
