Jacky Schroer, formerly an A&R Exec Producer for Decca, has joined EMI's Angel Music Group as an A&R Executive. Mark Collen, SVP EMI Music UK, confirmed the appointment yesterday, telling CMU: "This new appointment now completes the Angel Music Group A&R team, consisting of Jacky Schroer, Elias Christidis, Phil Christie (Innocent label) and Ali Norris. With the range of skills and depth of experience brought together by the team, I am excited we can build upon and develop our roster of artists". EMI created the Angel Music Group last year, of course, bringing together some of the majors pop, MOR and crossover classical interests (don't get it confused with the other Angel Music Group, will you - the other one being the independently owned promoters of Gods Kitchen and Global Gathering).
Elsewhere in EMI appointments news, EMI Classics UK announced that they have appointed Alexa Pentecost to their press and promotions team.
