Exclusive Slideshow  Interview with Dan Morgenstern. Rare Photographs and Soundtrack by Lester Young & Count Basie. |
Our experience with this music dates back many years, both as producers and executives with top music labels. But it's our obsession as collectors that forces us to pay attention to every detail in ways a large music corporation can't. We don't release these Limited Edition collections when they're scheduled. We release them when they are ready. Inaccurate? Incomplete? Those are the things that drive us crazy!
Open one of our packages and discover why Mosaic has become the label for jazz collectors. Flip through the large-format booklet thick with essays, unpublished photographs, interviews and recording details lovingly researched. Lift out one of the many CDs encased inside. And begin listening. Even if it's an artist whose music you thought you knew, trust us - there are delightful revelations inside every package, including many sides discovered when we went exploring through the vaults.
Adding to your jazz library? Not sure where to start? Check out this guide to our personal favorites. Every deluxe Mosaic collection conforms to our exacting standards for rigorous documentation, spectacular sound, and pristine presentation. Need an exceptional gift? Our gift cards are the perfect answer.
We created Mosaic because of our personal passion for jazz - but also with a deep concern that this music and the joys it provides us would be lost to time. More than 25 years later, Mosaic Records continues to grow, thanks to collectors worldwide who have discovered our exclusive box sets by big names like Duke Ellington and Django Reinhardt, plus lesser-known giants like Johnny Smith and Gerald Wilson.
