    Yoed’s arrangement is incredible! Warm, emotional, and perfectly in sync with the heart of the song. The strings add cinematic depth without overpowering anything, and the performance feels human and expressive. A beautiful lift to an already heartfelt track.

    Worked with Yoed before, and it's been a pleasure every time. Yoed manages to put a lot of soul into his art, and the result shows that. Highly recommended, and will definitely work on more tracks together.

    Wow! Yoed is much more than just an elite player and recording artist. If you are reading these reviews to see if he is your guy, you can stop. I can't imagine anyone better to collaborate with across multiple genres. He was able to quickly dial in the exact vibe I was looking for in my psychedelic rock track. A creative and rare talent. What a wonderful experience!

    Yoed is an incredible talent. An absolute rockstar on the strings. I gave him a song to play over and he nailed it on the first take with precision and feel. Looking forward to working on many more projects with him in the future. Highly recommended.

    If you need strings Yoed is your guy!!!! Maybe even more valuable than his technical ability is his arrangement ability - super tasteful and exactly what the song needed. Yoed will make your song sound expensive, hire him :)

    Yoed is a top-tier player and arranger—every project I’ve brought him onto, he’s delivered exactly what the music needed. His parts are always beautifully played, tastefully arranged, and delivered with pristine audio quality. He has a quick turnaround time, is incredibly responsive, and communicates clearly throughout the process. Working with Yoed is always a smooth, high-caliber experience.

    An amazing cellist and artist! Yoed, delivered a top notch solo cello recording in a neo-classical style of music. The expressiveness and timbre of his cello performance especially in high register is unparalleled! Delivered the audio file just the next day and was very helpful throughout the process.
    If you're looking for a professional cellist, Yoed is the guy!
