"with Platz Machen, Berkson brings her passions together, enlivening cantorial music with drums, bass and atonal vocal lines. Her songs respect tradition while flirting with rebellion...her music has the potential to leave a lasting contribution to the canon of cantorial music"
-Leah Koenig - Lilith Magazine
"ethereal vocalist"
-David Rubien - San Francisco Chronicle
"a singer who fearlessly attacks awkward intervals and boasts a range that's hard to believe"
-Harvey Siders - Jazz Times
"Versatile and unpredictable, she mixes originals and improvisations with
tunes of Schumann and other swinging cats."
-Time Out New York
"Judith Berkson, whose intriguing voice on the wordless piece, 'One Note,' manages to sound as mellifluous and mysterious as Garchik's trombone"
Laurel Gross on Jacob Garchik Trio's cd "Romance"
- All About Jazz
"The mood at this haven of experimental music was only occasionally broken by screamed obscenities from the sidewalk while Berkson took on a self-imposed challenge: performing solo versions of complicated pieces for piano and voice—by Schumann, Schoenberg, and others—intended for two musicians. The difficulty of tackling both parts at once showed in her sometimes-uncertain voice, but the shakiness proved transfixing rather than distracting."
