Alder Music and Audio aims at providing professional-quality recording solutions for a reasonable cost in London and the surrounding area. An ideal option for conservatoire students, those beginning their professional careers, amateur ensembles, or those otherwise on a budget, we will serve your needs at a price you can afford.

Specializing in live classical and acoustic music, and small jazz ensemble concerts and recordings, lead engineer Jason Alder will ensure to capture your performance in the highest quality. Graduating with two Bachelor (Michigan State University and Conservatorium van Amsterdam), a Master (Artez Conservatorium), and a PhD (Royal Northern College of Music) performance degrees, Jason is a trained musician that knows and is sensitive to the needs of the classical and jazz music world. Having worked for the Recording Services department at Michigan State University and continued the work with his own business in the Netherlands and UK for over 20 years, he knows what is necessary to make your recording sound the best it can.

Jason has helped record concerts, CDs, and audition videos for many professionals in and around Amsterdam and London, including the Nieuw Ensemble, Asko Ensemble, Ziggurat Ensemble, Rubik Ensemble, Idumea Quartet, Marc Sabbah, Aksana Stahievich, Burton Greene, and finalists in the Geneve Competition.
