Hello! I am Carmen Elisa Vargas, a professional musician with more than 12 years of experience on stage and in the music industry. I graduated in academic percussion at the Simón Bolivar Conservatory of music in Caracas. Currently, I hold the position of Assistant Principal and Percussionist at the Venezuela Symphony Orchestra. this has allowed me to work in great projects that has been nominated to a Latin Grammy and have played with a great variety of musicians in different styles and genres from orchestal and classical music, latin music to afro-music.

I record marimba, vibes, classical percussion, latin and afro-percussion and have access to a large variety of instruments. If you want to record another instrument like strings, winds and brass I count with the equitments and the musicians to make your project shine.

I record in Ableton and StudioOne but If you have a personal DAW request let me know so I can deliver the work in the way you most like it. Don´t hesitate to write me I am looking forward to work with you.

    It was a pleasure to work with Carmen. She recorded some great sounding timpani parts, which met my brief perfectly. She obviously has great musicality, and is friendly and professional. Excellent and straight forward communication. Would highly recommend! Thanks Carmen.

    Carmen's sense of music is far beyond this planet best. She gave me exclusive comfort of many takes where each one she played beautiful. She created absolute organic accompaniment, makes song sky high better. Master class of art.

    Carmen produced high quality work, even quicker than expected, and going above and beyond with extra ideas that I hadn't even thought about. A true professional and a pleasure to work with!
