What is Vialma?
Established in 2016, Vialma is mostly known as a streaming platform dedicated to classical and jazz music. However, there’s much more to the platform than just streaming music. Vialma can be defined as a multimedia service that uses the power of diverse content, from playlists, to audio-visual, to podcasts, to games, to carefully guide their users through classical and jazz music.
Besides that, the platform strives to put the two genres into a new light for the general public, making them feel more approachable and relevant in today’s times. Through partnerships with music institutions, Vialma not only provides an introduction to jazz and classical, but also outlines the potential journey through the genres, showcasing a strong educational aspect of the platform.
As of 2021, the network was affiliated with 15 orchestras and ensembles and had around 100,000 monthly listeners. Their audience is mostly European with the majority of it located in the UK and France.
Why should Vialma matter to you as an independent artist?
In its core, Vialma attaches a great importance to the genres that it strives to represent, focusing on the listener's experience and knowledge of the music and the artists. This has a potential to make the musicians on the platform more approachable and visible.
Additionally, the platform boasts itself of using no AI-driven algorithms when it comes to playlisting. All music selections are curated manually which also gives artists on the platform a bigger chance to get playlisted and so discovered. On top of the music selections, users can also contact the Vialma team for personalized music recommendations which may be an even greater boost to the artists and their work.
