The Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra (JSO) was founded in the 1940’s.
Under it’s current musical director, the orchestra divides its time between live radio broadcasts, concerts arround the world, and recording sessions in its home concert theater, the Henry Crown Concert Hall. It is a well-endowed, well-equipped orchestra with patrons abroad and at home. The Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra has a long history of working with outstanding artists, such as Arthur Rubinstein, Daniel Barenboim, Otto Klemperer, Henryk Szeryng, Issac Stern, Radu Lupu and others. With 63 seasons of experience, the orchestra knows itself: bow changes are elegant; sections easily attain an internal balance; and tonality is rock-solid.
There’s no language problem here. The Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra’s musicians are very accustomed to working with guest conductors - in English.

The 800-seat Henry Crown Concert Hall in Jerusalem is home to the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra (JSO) and the primary recording venue. The hall was built in 1986 specifically for concerts and recordings. The venue has an enormous volume, resulting in rich overtones and a feeling of “space” in the recordings. Surround recordings are especially dramatic and pleasing.

We have years of experience in classical, ethnic, liturgical and jazz music recording, and we have learned what matters in a recording - a pure and clean sound.
JSO uses Schoeps microphones with on-stage pre-amps and Apogee converters, and we design and manufacture our own microphone pre-amps and consoles.

JSO’s attention to every technical detail yields recordings of unrivaled clarity and depth. You get a full, rich recording which “sits well” with your film, in any delivery format. The depth in the recordings allows room for your film’s dialogue, sound effects and backgrounds to punch through, while maintaining comparatively high music levels.

BEAMLIGHT can package your elements for editing and final mix “back home,” or we can provide complete music mixing, editing and “fitting” services in Jerusalem. We can provide any mix configuration, from stereo to 5.1 surround, as well as solo channels for later re-mix.

We know that it’s no small feat getting a film score from your mind’s eye to the screen. That’s why we do all we can to help you keep your mind on the music. Even before you step off the plane in, we will take care of you and your production.
