Kimberly Marshall
Kimberly Marshall is known worldwide for her compelling programs and presentations of organ music. She is an accomplished teacher, having held teaching positions at Stanford University and the Royal Academy of Music, London. Winner of the Saint Albans International Organ Playing Competition in 1985, she has been a recitalist, workshop leader, and adjudicator at seven national conventions of the American Guild of Organists. From 1996 to 2000, she served as a project leader for the Göteborg Organ Research Center (GOArt).
Acclaimed as a specialist in early music, Dr. Marshall has performed on many of the most significant historical organs in Europe. She is also a noted authority on contemporary organ repertoire, especially the music of György Ligeti. Her compact disc recordings and videos display the breadth of her interests, from the music of Arnolt Schlick and sixteenth-century Italian composers to Chen Yi’s Dunhuang Fantasy. She currently holds the Patricia and Leonard Goldman Endowed Professorship in Organ at Arizona State University.
