Testimonials
“J. Aaron Stanley was a blast to work with!!! He listened very well to my direction for the style, emotion, and tone on the score of LoveStruck. He also brought great ideas to the project that I didn’t even think about. Can’t wait to creatively collaborate with him again and again!”
– Jayson Wall, Filmmaker
“Working with Aaron was a fantastic experience and his original score elevated our film to the next level. We were looking for something specific for our film and he was able to exceed our expectations in a short amount of time. He is incredibly talented and knew exactly the type of music/mood we were looking for. From him, I received a professional, efficient, and kind attitude. I would definitely work with him again and highly recommend him to others.”
– Reyna Calvillo, Film Director
“Aaron is one of the most talented arrangers and composers I’ve met, and I’ve met quite a few in many genres. It’s hard to find someone who can write for any style quickly, beautifully, and with a real knowledge of all the instruments. Aaron nails it!”
– Dr. Seth Ward, Music Director at the historic and Rockefeller-built
Central Presbyterian Church, NYC
“The working relationship with Aaron was very effective and promoted synergy. He paid attention to comments and provided valuable input while being watchful of deadlines. Aaron has a warm personality and a let’s-do-it attitude that certainly is valuable during stressful projects. His talent and attention to details is evident on the final product. The music served the story well and helps to enhance the mood of the film. I’m happy with the real life sound quality of it.”
– Henry Corzo, Filmmaker
“The Mason Brothers Quintet and producer Lawson White, who I worked with at Avatar Studios yesterday, were very impressed with the horn arrangements you did for my two tunes, “Road” and “Gently”. The musicians executed the charts brilliantly and easily, in part due to your professional services. You did a great job. All the charts were very well marked and notated, and your suggestions on mutes and trumpet choice were helpful. I appreciate that you provided me with faux sound recordings both in mixed MP3 and WAV so I could develop mock-ups to send out before the recording session. Thank you!”

“Aaron is a fantastic orchestrator and a pleasure to work with. He made the unusual instrumentation for our project sound like a million bucks: full, transparent and lively. I look forward to working with him again.”
