Testimonials
Michelle Wenis, singer/songwriter at Green Woman & Your Childbirth
Working with Barry Hartglass has been terrific. He reads minds. He translates what I can only understand in my language, to his, so everything gels and everything fits just right for all. Really hope to get back to his recording studio this week!
Victoria Faiella, singer/songwriter at Incandescent Records
I appreciate all the dedication and hard work you have put into this project. It's easy to get lost in tweaking small things and one can often forget to mention all the beautiful moments. There are so many beautiful moments! Yours is a rare blend of musicality, proficiency and heart.
Jared Gordon, Winter Twilight Productions
His melodic, haunting scores for my independent short films and features have added so much to my production values and I would highly, highly recommend his work to anyone. He is a versatile and always professional musician.
Donna Cori Gibson, singer/songwriter at Golden Arrow Music
I think it is so cool that I can say something and you just know what to do, and always meet or exceed my expectation. Or, I can say 'I hate it' and you know just what to change and it’s no big ego thing. You are so good at taking what I 'hear' in my head and making it a reality.
Adam Glaser, The Juilliard School
'Vudu' is fantastic. There is such creativity and depth of musicianship throughout this entire CD. The tunes are beautiful, the solos are outstanding, and the recording and mixing seem to have been done with great sensitivity. Well done!
Tom Nazziola, composer/orchestrator
Some of my favorite sessions and best-sounding tracks have taken place at Barry’s studio. He’s is a stickler for high quality, clean sound and detailed engineering. He deeply understands every aspect of the recording process. In any style, Barry will serve your needs beyond expectation.
Annie Karto, singer/songwriter at Windswept Records
Barry has enabled me to receive numerous awards and acknowledgements in my genre. He has an outstanding ear for creating music, and for capturing the essence of an individual. He is patient, encouraging, and very easy to work with. His knowledge and interpersonal skills make him an A-list producer.
