Balalaika & Ukulele Sessions

Professional session musician and composer providing live acoustic balalaika recordings with Slavic-inspired sound, professional ukulele sessions, and perfect audio-to-MIDI transcriptions for piano and keyboards, preserving the feel of real performance.

I’m a professional session musician and composer with more than 20 years of concert and studio experience.
I specialise in live acoustic balalaika recordings with a truly Slavic-inspired sound, professional ukulele sessions, and detailed audio-to-MIDI transcription for piano and keyboard parts.

I aim to deliver recordings that feel alive — real performances full of expression, precision, and character.
The balalaika is my signature instrument: recorded through high-quality microphones in a professional studio, it brings warmth, authenticity, and a distinctive Slavic flavour to your song, film, or game soundtrack.
The ukulele adds a bright, intimate tone, perfect for pop, folk, and cinematic styles.

In addition, I create accurate, natural-sounding MIDI transcriptions that capture every nuance of the original performance — including dynamics, sustain pedal, articulation, and timing. The result is a realistic and fully playable MIDI file, ideal for producers, composers, and arrangers who need professional precision combined with musical sensitivity.
