Hollywood-Grade Orchestral Scoring.
Recorded in Prague.
For over 25 years, composers from around the world have flown into Prague to record their scores with MUSA and the FILMharmonic Orchestra. Today, you don't have to fly anywhere — direct your session live from your studio, or join us in person and meet some of Europe's finest musicians.
World-Class Players
The FILMharmonic Orchestra — drawn from Prague's top symphonic ensembles.
European Roots, Global Service
Hollywood sound, Prague precision, full buyout. No residuals. No hidden complexity.
End-to-End Service
Orchestration, engineering, mixing, hotels, transport. We handle everything except writing the notes.
MUSA isn't a venue.
We're a scoring partner.
From the first email to your final stems, you work with one team: experienced engineers, a Golden Globe-credited orchestra, conductors who've worked with Desplat and Zimmer, and a producer (Petr Pycha) who has run hundreds of sessions and seen every problem you'll ever encounter — before you do.

Prague Sound.
Composer Logic.
Prague has been the secret weapon of film composers since the 1990s. Goldsmith, Legrand, Desplat, Portman, Yared — all chose it.
The Sound
Over 25 years of recording the world's best film scores have built a uniquely cinematic acoustic culture. The players understand the specific demands, emotional arcs, and tone required for media scoring.
The Structure
100% buyout. No residuals. No union complexity. Simple contracts, total IP ownership in perpetuity.
The City
Direct flights from 70+ cities. Beautiful hotels. Your producer can fly in for the day and be home for dinner.
"Since 2007, the FILMharmonic Orchestra of Prague has been an essential part of my musical journey. After five albums together, a video game soundtrack, and countless other projects, I can confidently say they are my first choice for any project that demands excellence, versatility, and artistic commitment."
Christos Antoniou
Composer & Guitarist, Septicflesh
"I've been working with Petr Pycha and MUSA for 22 years now, and I can honestly say that I have always walked away extremely happy with the quality of musicians, studios, engineers, and the level of customer service. Petr and his team 'get it.' Petr strives to make the process easy, seamless, and as transparent as possible, and I recommend Petr or MUSA with the highest personal endorsement."
Darren Fung
Film & Television Composer
"Coming to Prague to record with MUSA is an experience every composer should have. The players are incredibly responsive, and Petr handles the logistics so smoothly you forget you're halfway across the world."

We work with Prague's finest scoring stages including Smecky Music Studios, Rudolfinum / Dvorak Hall, and Czech Television Music Studios. We recommend the best room for your project's size and acoustic needs.
