Many festivals, masterclasses, universities, conservatories and summer programs now require a CD, cassette tape or video-tape of a flutist’s playing to be included in his/her application. Getting a superior product from a recording session requires a completely different mind-set and approach than performing.

“Laura contributed a great deal to the March, 2002 session I did with Liz Leehey at Tufts University. She gave good, calming advice to the performer, used her experienced ears to help get a nice balance between piano and clarinet and played the role of producer in helping to decide what sections needed to be redone. I was very glad that Laura was there to assist for this session” --Thomas W. Clark, engineer Location Recordings

Laura has assisted students and professionals in recording demo tapes and CD’s by guiding musicians in pre-production preparation, producing the actual recording session and post-production editing. Many important questions need to considered such as location for the recording, repertoire, accompanist, availability of piano and kind of piano, tuning, hiring a recording engineer, using a producer and budget for the project.
