"It takes a long name like Robert Summers Potterton III to fully encompass the level of skill and talent this man holds. His music is even more impressive than his long list of credentials. Professional to the core and all-around top notch!"

"For my first short film after leaving film school I choose Robert from a field of applicants, including composers as far away as Spain. Robert easily composes the classical scores that I like and his debut piece for my film, “Forgive and Forget” was a hit with everyone. He is fueled and powered first by his love of his craft. Driven by the liberty and unrestricted indulgence given to him to compose my scores, I suffer the same fate with each film. Will he come up with a score I like? Gallons of boiling adrenaline later, I am always satisfied. Robert is easy to work with, a rare and indeed special quality in this industry. Both he and I are Leos and one would think this clash of egos would spell disaster for our artistic relationship. What ego? Robert is down to earth, is eager to consider your input and would like to know if he meets your expectation. Which egotist has those qualities? After working on three short films together, I trust his judgment, applaud his creativity and envy his professionalism. I see my creative relationship with him as a long term arrangement as I get ready to make my first feature film."

"We needed a composer to create a series of twelve unique pieces of music to accompany the voice of our pregnancy coach and exercises on audio CD for our Nurturing Baby and Me During Pregnancy guidebook and program. The purpose of the CD was to relax women during pregnancy and inspire them to interact with their unborn babies and prepare mentally for motherhood. The music would not only play a pivotal role in soothing the mom, but it would also be the first music the child would hear in and outside the womb. It had to be dynamic. Robert took on this volunteer task and created music to our objectives and beyond our expectations. He took words spoken by our voice artist and put them to music in a way that touched the feeling centers of the listener. The music set the proper mood and tempo and inspired intimate interactions between mother and baby. This recording has been used successfully by thousands of pregnant women in association with the American College of Nurse-Midwives, Healthy Families America and Yale University. In addition, the book and CD have received the 2007 National Parenting Publications award for the best new pregnancy publication. Simply said, Robert’s music has made a major contribution toward helping women provide the best womb environment for their unborn and ultimately give their children the earliest, best start in life. In addition to his composing and musical talents, Robert also recorded, edited and produced the music for us including a twenty minute medley “Symphony for Delivery.” Finally and of equal importance, Robert has the personal qualities that would make any organization proud. He is diligent, hard-working and an excellent communicator. Above all Robert goes the extra caring mile to understand his client needs and create music of high quality that deeply resonates with the audience. Bravo Robert.
