Odyssey Records

Odyssey Records is a budget classical music record label founded by Columbia Masterworks Records in 1966 as a reissue label.[1] It is currently an imprint of Sony Masterworks.

In the early 2000s, Sony Classical repurposed the Odyssey imprint to showcase its growing roster of “crossover” artists, such as Canadian violinist Lara St. John, Greek tenor Mario Frangoulis, Brazilian singer and guitarist Rosa Passos, and American classical pianist Christopher O'Riley.[2]
