About ArkivMusic ArkivMusic was founded in 2002. We spent a great deal of time researching, designing, and building a web site for classical music shopping based on how real customers look for, find, and buy classical music. As you will see, it looks very different from any other online music store. The most radical departure that we take from other sites is the emphasis on finding music without typing things into a search box. We have found that the peculiarities of classical music don't always lend themselves to standard search tools used on the web. For many people, spelling inconsistencies or differing search syntax designs can often lead to very confusing results. We take a lot of the guesswork out of finding music by letting you click down a logical and well-categorized path to the works and recordings that you want.
The founders of ArkivMusic have a lot of experience in the classical music business and in selling music over the internet. In addition to key roles at online music companies N2K/Music Boulevard, CDNow, and Tower Records, we have worked extensively in ecommerce operations and technology. With ArkivMusic, we aim to set the standard and model for the next generation of online business built on strong industry experience, sound financial management, and real consumer demand.
