Altrisuoni (previously known as "Altri Suoni") is a Swiss record label specialised in jazz, contemporary and improvised music. It was founded in 1993 by Christian Gilardi, Romano Nardelli and Stefano Franchini. It is based in Ticino, the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland, south of the Alps. It is an independent record label devoted to promoting the Swiss jazz, contemporary and improvised music scenes. Probable influences that brought the founders to create Altrisuoni were Hat Hut Recordsand Unit Records, two historical jazz labels in Switzerland. Altrisuoni has reached out to other European artists as well: Mike Westbrook, Bertrand Lajudie, Simon Spang-Hanssen, Danny Gottlieb, John Abercrombie, Mino Cinelu, Flavio Boltro, Enrico Rava, Steve Swallow, Julio Barreto, and others more, even from the US (Lewis Porter) and South America (New Samba Jazz). Today the label, with a catalogue of over 250 releases, is headed by one of it's founders, Stefano Franchini, together with Dimitri Loringett and Francesco Kestenholz. The label receives support from the Swiss Arts Council, Pro Helvetia See Also
