Viola Recording Session for a Ballad writer
Recording some warm viola sounds for a ballad . A regular songwriter I work with has a new song in the works and needs some live strings to bring the song to life.
Happy Recording clients
Having played for a couple of recordings recently, varying from bohemian, to love song, to Latin pop, one client sent such a lovely testimonial:
‘Thank you Kristel. Your violin weaves in and out like a benevolent spirit, providing a soothing element to the song’s capricious febrility’.
Much obliged, Kevin.
A break-up song, change the world ditty and a wedding entrance tune
Festive Christmas Recording Session
As the festive season starts to get underway, it was sweet to have a violin recording session today for a little kids poem about Christmas, all set to music.
Violin Sessions
Another online violin session done and dusted. It is so interesting to play the varied range of compositions that come through for session work. Today’s one was a little country number about a dorpie.
Session Violinist
As all things turning increasingly online, I have been trying my hand (or fingers as it were) at online session work.
Very happy to have had some contented clients in the past few weeks.The most recent project had this to say
‘Kristel did an amazing job on my track. She was easy to work with, and got the job done more than on time. The recording quality and performance were both excellent. I just got the first mix back from the mixing engineer who’s working on my album with me, and your violin part had me in tears this time. Thanks again!’
Session Recordings
So glad to be included on the Melody Nest roster as a session musician. Looking for any string recordings for an upcoming project? Get in touch for blazing solo violin leads or warm, cosy string sections for your next song.
