Founded on November 2nd, 1973 by Dr. Germinal Hilbert, who prior to being encouraged by artists to become an artist manager worked as a music broadcaster and concert organizer for the French Radio, it quickly made a name for its distinguished roster.
The first artists Dr. Hilbert represented via the French sister-agency Opéra et Concert were the famous coloratura soprano Edda Moser, as well as Ruth Hesse and Horst Laubenthal, followed by Bayrheuth-stars Karl Böhm, Birgit Nilsson and Leonie Rysanek.
