"This vibrant collection of wonderful music from literally every musical period promises to enrich the musical lives of everyone. Female composers have suffered shocking neglect over the centuries, but society is now beginning to make amends. Karen Marshall's extraordinary anthology brings neglected jewels out of obscurity and into the limelight, where they will be loved and cherished." - Kathryn Page, pianist, adjudicator, teacher and co-founder of Chetham's International Piano Summer School
"Marshall's book is much more than a practical text -- it is a library of forgotten treasures that we should bring back to life on pianos across the world. This is proof that the uniting force of music can transcend patriarchal barriers and has the power to inspire the next generation to start a new cycle of creativity." - Hattie Fisk, Music Teacher Online, 1st May 2022
"Over the past few months, I've enjoyed exploring HerStory. It is a unique collection, and one which should be seen as an iconic milestone in music publishing. It is rare for me to say it, but I enjoyed every piece, and its a collection I shall enjoy playing from as much as I enjoy teaching." - David Barton, davidbartonmusic.co.uk, May 2022
