check_circleVerifiedThis is the second piano piece I have worked on with Seb and I’m sure it won’t be to last, another great result

Seb is a true professional, he has extensive production knowledge and is a great communicator, very happy with the piano solo he mastered for me
- check_circleVerified
I am grateful for Sebastien's willingness to accommodate my (perhaps) unusual request. One consultation later, I have already learned a lot and have no regrets reaching out.

This was my third mastering track with Seb, and he's always professional, easy to work with, and helps me with parts of my master/mix that I didn't even hear myself. Looking forward to working with him and Sarah again!

Sarah has phenomemal musical abilites in playing and understanding what I want to express with my ideas. For me she should be on the top list of the piano players here.
- check_circleVerified
I choose Sarah for playing two lyrical piano improvisation I recorded as a lousy pianist in the right way, cause I felt she might be the right one to do this kind of work. I was right.
- check_circleVerified
I'm in absolute AWE! Sarah took my piano melody to a place that I never could. It gave me CHIIILLLLLSSSS just listening to it. Her talent can't be matched. I would love for her to breath life into my future music projects. Thank you!

A very talented pianist, and a delight to work with. I massively recommend for anyone reading this.
check_circleVerifiedSarah's piano track for my song is amazing. It's played expertly and with feeling and it sounds really, really good. She's a very talented player and I'd be happy to work with her again!

Sarah was very fast in the delivery : the quality of the recording is amazing. Looking forward to work with Sarah again !
check_circleVerifiedSarah is a talented, gorgeous, and nice pianist to collaborate with. I will surely recommend Sarah for your composition because she is very experienced with listening to the song and go inside the story behind your composition. The most ideal person for your choice :)
I've got more than expected with Sarah. I will definitely work with Sarah again in the future.
check_circleVerifiedSarah did an amazing job and really understand what I need!
check_circleVerifiedSarah, simply put, is a true musical genius! She is supremely skilled at what she does, and it only takes a few moments of listening to her play to realize this, and to realize the passion she has for it. Extremely proficient and professional to work with; Sarah was diligent in analyzing the projects needs and working through communication to achieve it. Looking forward to working with her once more.
check_circleVerifiedIt was a real pleasure working with Sarah. She's an incredibly talented musician, and made stunning contributions to my production. Sarah is also a professional: she was invested and caring, she set clear expectations, and delivered a very easy to use package. Highly recommend working with Sarah, and I'll certainly be back soon.
check_circleVerifiedSarah is very professional and she did great job, the track has the sound I was looking for. I will work witn her again in the future.
Interview with Coponat Records
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Both have their uses, that being said digital is much more convenient for modern productions. Easier editing, tone control...
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: We have a very nice recording studio in the south of France, about 100m², with both a live room and a mixing room.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What do you need the recording for ? Do you know the sound you are after, or only the instrument you want to use ?
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: A grand piano (obviously eh) with some big amplification system.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Enhance an existing piano track that was written with a mouse. Create a piano soundtrack for a song. Improvise on a song. Recording of a written piece.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: A piano solo album called "Astronaut" to be released on June 21st.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I can produce piano parts that can't be done with a mouse.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: My inspirations come from the classical world (Listz....), film music (John Williams..) and progressive/funky music (Pink Floyd, Supertramp, Bruno Mars... list goes on and on).
