"I consider Yuko Yoshikawa a highly talented, brilliant performer, with flawless technique,excellent musicianship, and superb artistry. Every phrase she plays always comes so alive,she conveys in her performances the very soul of marimba."
"Yuko Yoshikawa demonstrated the jazzy, dream like quality of the marimba. Her performance came complete with tips on the best mallets, striking techniques and talk about where marimba music is headed."
"I invited Yuko Yoshikawa to a residency here at the University of South Florida in Tampa in 2006. She was asked to give lessons, a master class and perform a solo recital. Yuko was simply perfect. Her performance was as fine as any of the major marimba artists that I have heard. She performs with a superb tone, imaginative phrasing and a sophisticated selection of literature. Her teaching was inspiring and the students simply loved her. I offer my highest recommendation to Ms.Yoshikawa!!"
"Residents watched as a fascinating instrument was put together… then the music mesmerized those present… but many enjoyed making music on their own when the group refused to leave and asked about the music and the instrument… the atmosphere was contagious from an enthusiastic musician, Yuko Yoshikawa to an inquisitive group of listeners who turned the event into a happening enjoyed on many levels by all present."
"Our employees really enjoyed music by Yuko. She helped us achieve our private event's atmosphere for which we were looking."
