American Record Guide ”In Praise of the Organ is the title given to this, and it is well chosen, for Indiana University organist Marilyn Keiser plays the pants off of Kodaly’s marvelously colorful writing for the king of instruments.” – Greenfield
Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians ”Both the Pange lingua and the Missa brevis receive absolutely superlative performances from soloists and chorus – and from Marilyn Keiser, who plays the 1959/1996 Schlicker / Dobson organ … Her playing in all four choral-and-organ works is, as always, sensitive and imaginative, her technique is flawless, and she makes excellent use of the registration possibilities on the 102-rank instrument. … This disc is a ”must-buy”! – Victor Hill
The American Organist “… the 87-voiced Bach Chorale, a major community musical force in northern Indiana, responds well to Gray’s impassioned leadership. The famous Valpo Schlicker … sounds importantly improved by the recent Dobson tonal work … Dr. Keiser’s accompaniments are masterful. … choral clarity is superb and the overall aural image broad and well detailed. Two brief, unaccompanied sacred motets provide quiet spacers and contribute to a very successful package of Kodály’s complete works for organ and choir.” – Michael Barone
The American Organist “This is a beautiful and distinguished recording.“ – Vernon Gotwals – Dec 1999
