Glissando communication

Glissando communication is a Paris-based public relations and communications consultancy that specialises in the classical music sector. The agency works primarily with orchestras, concert halls, music festivals, soloists, and cultural institutions that need to build visibility and audience engagement through targeted media relations and social media strategies. While many PR firms serve broad industries, Glissando communication focuses its expertise entirely on the classical music world, offering a depth of understanding that generalist agencies rarely match.

How Glissando communication helps classical music clients

For clients in the classical music space, the challenge is often connecting with both traditional audiences and new, younger listeners. Glissando communication addresses this by crafting campaigns that respect the heritage of classical music while leveraging modern communication tools. The agency develops press kits, manages media lists of specialised classical music journalists and cultural critics, and pitches stories to national and regional press. Beyond traditional PR, Glissando communication also handles social media management, creating content that highlights concert previews, artist interviews, behind-the-scenes rehearsals, and educational content to engage followers on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. The agency's work helps clients announce seasons, promote new recordings, and build attendance for live events.
