check_circleVerifiedYaniv is always one of the first people I bother when I need creative string stems for my tracks. He's clearly very talented, but also a pleasure to work with. Due to the nature of my work I'm always on tight deadlines and Yaniv has never left me hanging.

Yaniv is great to work with, timely work and excellent feel for the music.
check_circleVerifiedTo me the finest Oud improvisation I have ever heard (and I have heard my fair share). I guess all professional musicians have the technical skills and the knowledge to play well but Yaniv has a unique musical tone that I found outstanding. Beautiful lyrical improvisation sound and storytelling. Pleasure doing these collaborations.

Yaniv is an absolute remarkable musician. Not only is he very skilled in playing his instruments but he has a great musical feel which made our project sound really beautiful. Looking forward to more collaborations in future.
Wow...extremely recommended , marvelous musician with gorgeous sound and ideas. and more important great person, what make the all process and the work with him so much fun. pleasure!
Yaniv is an absolutely killer musician and multi-instrumentalist who I had the pleasure of working with, most recently on the Oud. When dealing with him, he was super personable, a sensitive player and his attention to detail is second to non. I cant recommend this guy enough!
I had several recording sessions with Yaniv on Oud, Saz and Violin, and he always sounds perfect and gave his extraordinary touch to every project in any genre.
Yaniv is a real artist. I invited him to play in my album and we had a great session, recording his oud and violin. he was bringing his soul and skill to the session and the outcome was more than I expected.
