    This was my third time to collaborate with Zakhar. Once again he delivered beautiful and tasteful strings with high quality recording. A very communicative and easy person to work with. No fuzz

    To work with Zakhar was a real delightful experience. He provided my song with the most beautiful string arrangement, which fit perfectly and caught the essence of the song. Hopefully I will have the pleasure to ask for his services again. I was simple and easy to collaborate and I warmly recommend his work.

    Zakhar understands music and requires minimal instruction to deliver perfect performances that leave nothing to wish for. I now include solo violin in tracks where I otherwise wouldn't, simply because I want to have Zakhar's playing in it.

    Zakhar took my simple folk love song and made it sound like a classic 1960s love ballad. Amazing work.

    He's a nuanced and skilled strings arranger and performer, and if that wasn't enough, he also has wonderful musical intuition: I didn't have to give him a single note, since his arrangements and performances were perfect for my song, right from the start.

    Zakhar is a great musician and professional, and I fully recommend his services!

    I received a phenomenal solo violin performance for my orchestral track just hours after my request. Zakhar's tone is magnificent and full of emotion. It could have been played in a hundred different ways, but Zakhar played in a way that perfectly fit the rest of the score and gave it new life. It is obvious he has lots of experience and a great understanding of music.
