Dear musician,
My name is Daniël van Horssen. I can take care of all your recording needs, from the initial stages
to the final product. At the Royal Conservatory
in The Hague I have trained not only as a professional recording producer and engineer, but also as a
professional musician. These two areas of expertise are of the utmost importance in creating recordings
that are musically satisfying and technologically outstanding.
