Mich Sampson: Reviews

Thank you so much for singing at our wedding ceremony. Your singing (particularly of Zeh Dodi) was amazing - really set the tone beautifully for the service - barely a dry eye in the place! It made it completely stress-free for us that you grasped what we wanted so quickly... we'd recommend you without hesitation!

Playing Rapunzel's 'Abseiling for Beginners' is one of those gems that occasionally sneak out of the pile. Mich Sampson and Marilisa Valtazanou's vocal harmonies soar and shimmer over beautiful piano and vertiginous flute on an entrancing collection taking in everything from the traditional to Steve Knightley, with class and passion reminiscent of While & Matthews.

an abundance of both beauty and emotion in the performances, and in the songs they've chosen to perform...tremendous voices: supremely strong and confident, wonderfully clear in both diction and timbre, and tending to be technique-driven with great use of harmonies and parts...All in all, I find this an endearing and enchanting disc...and one which is worth any beginner diving backwards off the parapet to sample. Go on - take the plunge!
What a delight it was to have music education specialist Michelle Sampson
with us for West Central's 'Torah Tots' Family Education Day! The kids
clearly had a wonderful time, as did all the adults present, including me.

I, like everyone, was in turns stunned, charmed, delighted at a masterful performance by a very talented soul. Effortless keyboard work, great humorous theatrical timing, great songwriting. Another real highlight of the con for me.

Mich Sampson was a breath of fresh air, talent, and timing, and grace, and modesty, all tied up in one tidy little bundle of smiles.

The writing, playing, singing, arrangement, engineering and artwork are all in a league of their own.

Mich Sampson's Guest of Honor concert was a lot like watching Walt Disney's Fantasia in my head. I just sat there with my eyes closed for several songs, drifting and letting the music pour through me.
Robert B. Cooke, GAFilk attendee 2004
Mich demonstrated not just what an accomplished performer and entertainer she is, but also how versatile - keyboard, guitar and harp. One of the highlights of the con for me.
Mike Richards, Convention attendee 2006
I don't think I've been so utterly transported by a performance before as by Mich's Saturday set.
