"So who are some of Portland's noteworthy inventive post-classical musicians? A short list would undoubtedly include important local names like Mattie Kaiser: Classical Revolution PDX proprietress, music educator, and kickass violist with chamber classical and pop groups in town."
- Stephen Marc Beaudoin, From Every Corner


"Kaiser rendered fiendishly difficult phrases with demoniac intensity, hammering out triple and quadruple stops with such ferocity that I thought strings might snap."
- Lorin Wilkerson, Northwest Reverb


"Kaiser animated the Shostakovich with slashing bow strokes and full-throated sound."
- James McQuillen, The Oregonian
