Musica Omnia is an American record label specializing in classical music. The label was founded in 2000 by Peter Watchorn,[1] and through 2007, most issues were produced by him.[1][2]

Although specializing in early music, the label has also released compositions by such contemporary composers as Julian Wachner.[3]

Big Daddy Records was the initial distributor[1] but the label switched to distribution by Naxos Records in 2014.[citation needed] The label's initial goal was to provide liner notes of superior educational value.[1]
