“Working with Chris has been an absolute pleasure. He demonstrated exceptional speed and thoroughness in his work, making the entire process smooth and efficient. His ability to take feedback constructively and incorporate it seamlessly into his arrangements was truly impressive.

The quality of his orchestral arrangements was outstanding, blending high artistic quality with the specific requirements we had as commissioners. His work not only met our expectations, but also delighted both the audience and the orchestra. We highly recommend Chris for any project requiring top-notch orchestral arrangements.”

-Jason Stasiuk, Manager of Artistic Operations
National Arts Centre Orchestra

“Chris’ arrangements sounded great the first time through, were delivered on time, and were loved by the orchestra. They were fun to play for the musicians and wonderful to listen to for the audience. Chris was super open to feedback on the arrangements; his flexibility really helped us fine tune things. Communicative, punctual, and professional, Chris absolutely is one of my go to arrangers for high level orchestral shows.”

Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser, Youth Conductor
National Arts Centre Orchestra
Toronto Symphony Orchestra

“It was a pleasure working with Chris on a chamber music arrangement for our musicians. I greatly appreciated his professionalism, meticulousness and openness to our requests and suggestions. I’m certain we will be working together again in the future.”

Yumi Palleschi, Director of Artistic Projects
l’Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal

“In my arranging shop at the Army Band, Chris was my go-to guy. If you need a Robert Farnon-style light orchestra sound, he’s got it. If you want a Trans-Siberian Orchestra sound that rocks a stadium, he’s got it. If you need an underscore to a film, he’s got that too. As a composer, arranger, and orchestrator, Chris is the total package, and as personable and professional as you will find.

-James Kazik, Chief Arranger (Retired)
The United States Army Band “Pershing’s Own”
