Testimonials

We worked with Toby on our 4th Album, Hello My Beautiful World. Toby created all the string arrangements, and he was brilliant to work with.

His arrangements were beautiful, emotive and musical, and the sounds are full, rich and realistic. It's mind-blowing what's possible now.

Toby was also highly professional with all the file wrangling and communication and was always ready and willing to tweak and adjust or take feedback and go in another direction if required.

I couldn't recommend Toby highly enough if you're considering trying strings on a song. Toby's rates make having strings on a song accessible in a way they never were in the past, and it might be that you find just one part that makes a song or section or, like us, you'll fall in love with the whole arrangement. It's so worth trying it out and hearing what's possible.

Five stars. I would work with Toby again.
