"I have been delighted with Mr. Gerard's work at Gurari Studios. As a voice teacher I have been impressed with his ability to obtain a true and authentic sounding result, and his musical knowledge and keen insight into the voice are distinct advantages. This facilitates not only an understanding of how to capture the individual at their recorded best, but an efficient use of editing time as well. I highly recommend Gurari Studios."

"Several of my pupils have gone to Gurari Studios to have recordings made and in each case I have found the final product to be of the highest quality. It isn't easy to record operatic voices, especially those who sing heavier repertoire, and I feel that Jeremy Gerard has the technical expertise and the musical sensitivity to capture the true quality of those who sing classical music."

"I have had the privilege to work with Jeremy on several occasions at his studio conveniently located in midtown Manhattan.  The equipment, room, and piano are excellent.  As a singer with a large voice, I find the space works beautifully for me, and as a singer himself, Jeremy brings to the recording sessions a special and added expertise you will not find elsewhere in NYC.  He makes the entire process easy and stress free and was very quick to not only work me into his busy schedule,  but also to get additional copies off to me around the world.  I happily and honestly recommend him to my colleagues and will absolutely use his fine services in the future.  Thank you Jeremy for being the difference in NYC."

"Jeremy Gerard and Gurari Studios has renewed my belief in competent recording engineers after having had several bad and costly experiences. Jeremy is extremely knowledgeable in the recording industry and as a singer as well. The studio and piano are wonderful and the room is very easy to sing in, even with a bigger voice. His recording produced a true-to-life sound, perfectly matching the real voice with no artificial covering or film. His easy going personality made a stressful experience a pleasure. Jeremy went out of his way to make sure that I was satisfied with the final product and the recording far exceeded  my expectations. I would highly recommend Jeremy and Gurari Studios to my colleagues and will definitely  be using his services again."
