TESTIMONIALS
“Jakub Gaudasinski was a consultant on the sound mix for the production of “Hamlet” by Brett Dean at the 2018 Adelaide Festival. This was a complex score involving as it did live orchestra, chorus, semi chorus and electronic effects and recorded instrumental sound. We were concerned to achieve a satisfactory blend and to ensure the live sound did not obliterate the importance of the electronic and recorded instrumental sound. Jakub was sensitive to the interests of the composer and the needs of everyone involved including conductor, orchestra, chorus master, singers and sound operator. The director Neil Armfield found his comments and advice effective and most constructive and would welcome the opportunity of working with him again, as would I.”
– Mary Vallentine, Producer “Hamlet” 2018 Adelaide Festival
“Many thanks for the fast and efficient audio engineering service that you provided for our cabaret performance yesterday. You managed to achieve excellent results, in a very short time frame and with great calmness and competence. We wouldn’t hesitate to use your services again. Much appreciated.”
– Sally Francis, Arts Coordinator Flinders Medical Centre.
“Jakub is a true professional. He did the sound for my solo cabaret show, Scarred for Life, and he made me sound as good as I possibly could! Lovely presence, perfect amount of reverb. I was very impressed. He was also an excellent communicator, punctual and friendly to work with.”
– Josh Belperio, Music Creative and Performer
“Ruby Tuesday Choir had an opportunity to create a recording for the Blinman Mine Historic Society in South Australia. Our clients wanted a hymn to be recorded to recreate an authentic sound of 19th Century miners for their tour. As a conductor working with a community choir, it was important to create a recording experience for the singers which provided an inclusive and creative environment that allowed the choir to perform freely and confidently. Jakub knew this instinctively and provided a professional and relaxed space that ensured that the singers were able to dig deep and also have fun. His impeccable professionalism, good humour and deep respect for the singers was exemplary. He listened deeply to the performances and quickly collaborated with us to achieve our musical aims. The singers in turn, knew that they were in the company of someone who knew and loved his craft. They felt safe in the atmosphere of instant and honest feedback that enabled the group to re-take and improve aspects of the music and vocal production. Jakub worked quickly and professionally and every minute of our time together was productive. Jakub’s approach to post production was sensitive and thorough and he ensured that I was kept informed of progress and included in the shape and direction of the final mix. Jakub’s fine musicianship, great ear and expertise has captured the joyful spirit and expression of our choir. The experience has boosted the confidence of the singers and provided a musical memory of quality. We look forward to another opportunity to work with Jakub!”
