Sterling Records specialises in world premiere recordings of mainly orchestral works by Romantic composers. The label was founded in Stockholm in 1980. Since then, it has released more than 200 albums, most of which contain works that were previously unavailable on record. Sterling is known for its series of ‘national’ romantic repertoires, such as ‘Swedish Romantics’, ‘German Romantics’, and others. Naxos Sweden acquired the label in 2025.
