Our story

 

Founded in 1986 by Sylvain Lemay, Les Productions d’Oz was born from a simple and bold idea: to enrich the classical guitar repertoire. From its inception, the publishing house dedicated itself to publishing original scores, actively supporting composers and guitarists in their quest for a renewed musical language.

 

Thanks to an approach focused on editorial excellence and collaboration with musicians from around the world, Les Productions d’Oz quickly gained international recognition. This passion for creation is reflected in a rich catalog, featuring solo pieces, duets, guitar ensembles, and various formations. With the acquisition of Éditions Doberman-Yppan in 2010, its horizons broadened, incorporating a vast repertoire for all instruments and a rich selection of contemporary Canadian works.

 

Today, under the leadership of Florence Lemay, Éric Dussault, and Antoine Bégin, the company pursues its mission with the same dynamism, always driven by the desire to enrich the classical guitar with new works. Combining innovation, editorial expertise, and cutting-edge printing, Les Productions d’Oz remains an essential reference for guitarists worldwide, providing an essential platform for composers shaping the future of the instrument.
