Mike Garson :

Harriet tackled some very difficult improvisations of mine. Her execution of these pieces are extraordinary. I couldn’t do it yet I wrote them! I know few pianist who are willing to sit at the piano day after day for 10 hours perfecting not only my music, but all kinds of music like Rachmaninoff, and all the standard repertoire.

Harriet worked on this music for several years and my hat is off to her.

Nick Cave:

I think the album is beautiful and strange and chaotic and brutal and immensely playable.

Raw, anarchic, mesmerizing music. Harriet Stubbs and Mike Garson are a mad dream team.

Ken Dashow Q104.3 I Heart Radio:

Harriet Stubbs is my favorite pianist: not just for her brilliant, nuanced performances of the classic repertoire, but reaching beyond all boundaries with “Life On Mars” to bring David Bowie and Beatles into a classical landscape never heard before. Such joyous ideas and execution.

Paul Cavalconte Of WQXR WNYC & WFUV Radio :

Harriet Stubbs takes ‘think global, act local’ to a universal level. Living On Mars frames Bowie, Cave, Martin in a new classical canon where modern songs can become rhapsodic ecstasy. Harriet unflinchingly stares down a static future where centuries old repertoire will be endlessly recycled and says, on this magnificent Parthenon, erect a new pantheon. The key to that is to find endless delight and joy in refreshing the classics on new young terms. That whole package is Harriet Stubbs’ Living On Mars, where space is not the final frontier, just the next logical step in an eternal journey.
