Do you enjoy music, the search for excellence, for the ‘grain’ of sound, the quest for apt phrasing, for emotion? Do you appreciate music combined with painting? Since 1997, our artistic motivation, our very existence have served these ideals.
We have built up a catalogue of 100 recordings thanks to the economics of the market: the sale of our CDs, the support of Mécénat Musical Société Générale, the redistribution of copyright and related fees through subsidies from the performing right societies ADAMI, and SPPF du Fonds de Création Musicale, have together enabled us to produce these recordings.

Do you enjoy music, the search for excellence, for the ‘grain’ of sound, the quest for apt phrasing, for emotion? Do you appreciate music combined with painting? Since 1997, our artistic motivation, our very existence have served these ideals.
We have built up a catalogue of 100 recordings thanks to the economics of the market: the sale of our CDs, the support of Mécénat Musical Société Générale, the redistribution of copyright and related fees through subsidies from the performing right societies ADAMI, and SPPF du Fonds de Création Musicale, have together enabled us to produce these recordings.
The challenge we face in 2006 will be to offer the public the same standard of new productions in a market undergoing radical transformation, where physical sales are dwindling and we must find new means of compensating for these ‘physical losses’.
We are creating a ‘mid-price’ series, ZEBRA Collection, featuring eight titles from our catalogue, in order to offer the Zig-Zag Territoires spirit for 9€ (European price, inclusive of tax). This will be launched in March 2006.
We are transforming our website so as to make it more interactive, making it possible to listen to all our recordings on a systematic basis, to sell direct to consumers and to offer our titles for download.
We are naturally extremely concerned by developments in the debate on the overall licence, the means of remunerating all the players in musical life. We believe that music may be exchanged, but must, at some point, be purchased by listeners if they wish to be able to continue discovering new artists and new composers.
As Nietzsche wrote more than a century ago: ‘Without music, life would be a mistake.’ We are endeavouring to develop our relationship with our public - and, we hope, their support - so that music can continue to exist, in freedom and with maximum vitality.
