"Beethoven Shreds. The Great Kat is a speed metal guitarist who has now applied her unique talent to Beethoven. The huge shreds displayed on this album will not disappoint fans of the genre. Not only is Kat a great guitarist, she's a classical violinist to boot. Tracks like Beethoven's Fifth Symphony or Bach's Brandenburg Concerto show this off to great effect with riffs that will blow you away. With the amount of talent on show this music can only be appreciated on a concert stage where it can be enjoyed at its fullest." - Adrian Roberts, Morning Star (U.K.)

"BEETHOVEN SHREDS. If you like your classical music at locomotive speed and Jimi Hendrix styled sonic guitar, then take a listen to Juilliard rebel The Great Kat zip through The Flight of the Bumble Bee, Bach's Brandenburg Concerto #3 and Paganini's Caprice #24. It's worth considering using this music as cool entre into the world of classical music for unsuspecting youths. Fast she is, wild she is---catch your breath and spin a listen." - Eye on Dance and the Arts
"The Great Kat has earned a completely justified reputation as one of the world's fastest rock guitarists - her 'shredding' has to be heard to be believed." - Bob Smith, Good Times Magazine
"'The Great Kat.' She does not just play Beethoven. If you believe her, she is Beethoven reincarnated. Loud, blistering fast guitar riffs accompanied by screams, and an aggressive hyper-dominatrix persona. She is direct and flamboyant about her intentions. Her virtuosity is for real." -"Beethoven in America" Book (Indiana University Press)
