“I have known Yanni since 1999. He has worked as a sound engineer for projects I have produced in television and for commercially released compact disc. He has also composed theme music for a CBC prime time radio program which I co-produced. Yanni is passionate about music and sound but knows how to work efficiently towards the goal. He delights in a job well done and seeks to do the job well. He has lots of experience with music software in different studio settings. Yanni takes direction well and seeks to please the client while sharing his own point of view. His self-confidence makes him comfortable with taking in ideas and sharing his own. My experience with Yanni is that he is creative and seeks creative solutions. The music business is rewarding but also demanding. Yanni has the drive to keep going when the going gets tough. He likes to see the job get done and knows how to keep a sense of humour when the days grow longer. For all the Page8 reasons above, Yanni is good to work with. He’s on top of technology and gets energy from it. Most importantly, he’s got ears. I recommend him to you.” Jon Siddall, Music Producer
