"Neher was emphatic and flirtatious."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

"Neher’s voice, full and rich, rang from the surfaces of the room, the piano lay down a gentle moto perpetuo. The language was flowery, but the vocal writing was for the most part straight-forward: full of a joy and wonder, which Neher sincerely conveyed."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

"Neher at one point said that one of her goals was to write music and create a program that was new yet accessible, innovative yet beautiful. Mission accomplished—and in spectacular fashion."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

"Neher’s intensity, power and vocal prowess were all well showcased here. The composition was riveting."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

"At times hearkening back to Irish folk tunes, and at others redolent with motifs that sounded like an homage to the music of the First Peoples of the Pacific Northwest, it was a moody piece of strange and ancient-feeling modes. There was a fascinating effect."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

“Liquid, impressionist… writing and fluent melding” of voices.

    --New York Classical Review

"Her buoyant optimism never seems like an attitude; it seems like a part of her apparent belief in the power of speaking to audiences in a way that acknowledges their sorrows, but also alleviates them."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

"Even when Neher’s music looks outward, it looks inward."

    --Oregon ArtsWatch

"Neher had grown up immersed in Washington’s natural beauties—including Mount Rainier and Mount Saint Helens—and by creating elemental music that tapped into the wildness of nature, she was connecting the passions of her adulthood with the wonderment of her childhood."
