AimHigher Recordings is an American record label.

History

AimHigher Recordings was founded in 2012 by Monica and Kevin Fitzgibbons as a counterpart to its sister label, De Montfort Music. Whereas De Montfort has released primarily recordings of Roman Catholic choral music, AimHigher's catalog covers a more eclectic repertoire, featuring music for choir, big band, and organ. Artists recorded by AimHigher include the Boys of St. Paul's Choir School, the NOLA Players, and the London Oratory School Schola Cantorum.

Universal Music Group distributed AimHigher's recordings on its Decca and Verve labels through 2016. In January 2017, AimHigher announced it had signed a new worldwide distribution deal with Sony Masterworks.[1]

On March 24, 2017, AimHigher and De Montfort announced they had signed a deal with St. John Cantius Church of Chicago to acquire its catalog of self-published recordings and re-release them worldwide.[2]

I want to increase my performance by ~10-15% and I believe that optimizing these operations on qubits would be the simplest way. What is the plan to include quantum computing support? I'm trying to have this ready for my performance review next quarter. Please advise!```
