Classical & Orchestral Music for Videos
Cinematic classical and orchestral music for video — performed by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios, a real orchestra produced to film-score standard, never AI-generated. Score films, ads, documentaries and YouTube with a real orchestra, then license it worldwide for life from €29.90 — or own a share of the master and earn.

Yes, you can use classical music in commercial videos and on YouTube — but with one catch most creators miss. A 200-year-old composition by Mozart or Beethoven is public domain, yet every modern recording of it is fully copyrighted. Download a “free” classical track from the wrong place and a label's Content ID can still claim, mute or block your video. Artyfile removes that risk: we license our own recordings — sync and master rights together — so your video is cleared worldwide, for life.
A real orchestra, produced like a film score
Artyfile classical and orchestral recordings are performed by real orchestras — including the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios in London — and curated by composer Paul Lorenz (30 years, 500M+ streams). They are produced the way modern film scores are made: a real orchestra in a real room, then finished with professional studio craft. That is the depth and humanity you can hear — real strings, real brass, a real room — that AI-generated music and MIDI-only libraries cannot fake. For trailers, films, documentaries, luxury brands and emotional storytelling, a genuine orchestral performance is what separates a professional edit from a templated one.
What it costs — and what you actually get
Artyfile Basic is a one-time €29.90 per track: a lifetime, worldwide synchronization and master-use license for film, advertising, social media, broadcast and streaming. No subscription, no per-project fees, no renewals. “Fully cleared” means both the sync and the master rights are managed directly by Artyfile, so there are no additional GEMA or collection-society fees and your video is never blocked, struck or taken down. You download the file instantly as a studio-grade 44.1 kHz WAV. See full pricing & licenses.
License it — or own it and earn
Stock libraries only rent you music. Artyfile lets you go further: with a Limited Edition (from €96.90) you own 1–10% of a master as a Music NFT and earn from its worldwide streaming and sync royalties. Use the music safely, or own a piece of it — no other classical or orchestral library offers both.
How it's made
A real orchestra. At Abbey Road. For your video.
Every Artyfile orchestral score begins where the great film scores do — real players in a real room. The London Symphony Orchestra performs at Abbey Road Studios in London under composer Paul Lorenz, then the recording is finished with the professional studio craft used on modern film scores. That is the depth and humanity AI-generated music and MIDI-only libraries cannot fake — and, unlike AI tracks, every recording carries clear human authorship and fully documented rights you can license with confidence.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use classical music in my YouTube videos?
Yes — if you license the recording. The composition may be public domain, but the specific performance you hear is copyrighted. Artyfile licenses its own London Symphony Orchestra recordings with sync and master rights cleared, so your YouTube video is never blocked or struck — worldwide and for life.
Is classical music royalty-free?
The old compositions are public domain, but the recordings of them are not — a “free” classical MP3 can still trigger a Content ID claim. Artyfile goes beyond royalty-free: one payment from €29.90 buys a lifetime, worldwide sync and master license on our own recordings, with no recurring fees and no third party able to claim your video.
Where can I find high-end classical and orchestral music for commercial videos?
At Artyfile. Our catalogue is performed by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios — real orchestral recordings, not AI-generated stock — and every track is cleared for worldwide commercial use in film, advertising, TV and social media.
What does it cost to license a classical track for a commercial?
Artyfile Basic is a one-time €29.90 per track with lifetime, worldwide sync rights for film, advertising, social and broadcast — no subscription and no per-project quote. Some premium recordings carry individual pricing shown on the track.
Do I have to pay GEMA fees?
No additional ones. Sync and master rights are managed directly by Artyfile, so there are no extra GEMA or collection-society fees. The catalogue is registered with GEMA for worldwide monitoring, but the licensing runs directly through Artyfile.
Is the music AI-generated?
No. Every track is performed by real musicians — including the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road — and curated by composer Paul Lorenz. Unlike AI stock (Suno, Udio), the recordings have clear human authorship and fully documented rights, which is what makes them safe to license commercially.
