About

Building on our parent company Bertelsmann’s more than 60 years of success in music, our brief at the new BMG is to create a better kind of music business. BMG is a streaming-age solution to how artists, songwriters and other music rightsholders best monetize their work in the 21st century. That means relationships based on collaboration and partnership and a strong emphasis on efficiency and service. Nearly 15 years after launch, BMG is still very much in growth mode. The best thing about being here? The chance to make a real difference for the music-makers who soundtrack all our lives.
