Concert Reviews

“Splendid artistry…an extraordinary musician”
The Diapason

“Technique as smooth as silk… a truly outstanding performer”
The West Australian

“Her technique was spectacular…the climax to the Duruflé opus was built marvelously, ending in the sort of flourish on which organ competition awards are won.” The Richmond News

“A great lady of the organ” Dernières Nouvelles de Colmar

Marshall’s historical fingerings and precise ornamentation appeared effortless. By carefully selecting virtuosic, well-constructed samplings of the repertoire, Marshall was able to offer an imaginative and colourful program. Wolff’s [Canadian organ builder] singing principals and Marshall’s beautifully shaped phrases and tastefully wrought registrations combined to bring out the divine in Bach… Unlike other experiences with early music on historically fashioned instruments, this brilliant program on a fabulous instrument left one wanting more.
The American Organist, November 2001


Recording Reviews

For Bach Encounters Buxtehude

Nowadays to be an organist who is both historically erudite in style and plays musically is a rarity; in that profession the two characteristics have come to be mutually contradictory. Prof. Marshall seems to be one of those rarities, based on this fine recording.

She performs these North German works with discerning musical instincts, great fingers, imagination, superb rhythm, color consciousness, and perhaps most remarkable, a distinct musical personality of her own. American Record Guide, 2003

For Sienese Splendor
Marshall is a wonderful player, bringing the music to life as though it had been composed only yesterday.

American Record Guide, Jan/Feb 2003





For Divine Euterpe
This CD bursts its way back onto the market with all the aplomb you would expect from an artist and a scholar as considerable as Kimberly Marshall…

The Organists’ Review, 2002




For Great European Organs, No. 11
This programme is a sensitive mixture of the poetic and the grand. The American organist Kimberly Marshall shows herself possessed of a depth of feeling and imagination which, allied to a fist-class technique, produce wonderfully communicative playing.
