Leslie D. Judd is an answer to a composer’s prayer! She is, in my opinion, the perfect collaborator for the composer who needs professional layout for orchestra scores, piano scores, opera and choral scores, etc. She is sensitive, meticulous, methodical, caring and respectful in her approach to the music she is working with.
– Mary Watkins
Leslie D Judd served as engraver for the new opera Emmett Till by composer Mary D Watkins and librettist Clare Coss. She is a top professional in the field, skilled in the knowledge of new software and proficient in careful detail work. She delivered a beautifully reset final score with complex orchestration for 24 instruments, eight soloists, two 8-member choruses. A composer herself, Leslie D. Judd’s work is artful as well as technically excellent.
