Éditions Russes de Musique was a music publishing company operating in Germany, Russia, France, the UK and the US.[1]
It was founded in 1909 by Serge Koussevitzky and his second wife Natalia and focused on new Russian music.[2][3]
In 1914 a related independent imprint was formed based on the German company Gutheil which Koussevitzky purchased[4] for the purpose.[1]
The headquarters moved to Paris in 1920,[4] after the Russian Revolution. The firm was sold to Boosey & Hawkes on March 1, 1947.[1]
