"Kathy McNeil is a brilliant concert organist with unrelenting musicianship, intellect, and passion for her art. She has appeared as a soloist with the Morris Choral Society under my direction and has never failed to delight the chorus as well as the audience. "Kathy is one of the finest professional accompanists with whom I have worked. She currently serves as my personal recital pianist. I find her sensitivity to the music and to the performer invaluable in the artistic execution of each piece. "Kathy serves as the recital accompanist for my voice students at the College of Saint Elizabeth where she is an adjunct professor of organ. Kathy possesses a profound understanding of the various talents and needs of each individual student and is supportive and encouraging while at the same time setting the performance standards for each young musician within a realistic, achievable goal. Whether Kathy is working with a solo performer, young students, or a large chorus, she demonstrates the artistic craftsmanship, the mature wisdom of a seasoned performer, and the gentle collaborative nature to make every performance a memorable musical masterpiece."       - R.
