Reviews

"A solid musical citizen [offering] sympathetic conducting. Taylor conducted with affection, security, style, and vigor, and the performance came together to make the effect Vaughan Williams intended. Her reward was even more applause at the end than when she started, which is how it should be."
Richard Dyer, The Boston Globe

"The world premiere performance on Sunday [of Kyr's Passion According to the Four Evangelists] led with fervent energy by Taylor, was solid, clear, and deeply felt."
Susan Larson, The Boston Globe
