“Esther Miller is blessed with an excellent voice, a warm personality and a love of performing… Miller’s rapport with her band and her obvious enjoyment throughout the evening communicated itself to her audience, who left on a high.”
SCARBOROUGH EVENING NEWS, June 2008

“…on this performance it will not be long before she becomes a big name. She took the large and appreciative Suffolk audience on a swinging and melodic journey that had them cheering and calling for more… A highlight of the evening was Ms Miller's interpretation of the familiar My Funny Valentine - another quite emotional version with Ms Miller making the most of the lyrics.”
ALAN CRUMPTON – EAST ANGLIA DAILY TIMES, June 2007

“At all times Esther Miller sang with a true jazz feeling, while being sensibly sparing with scat solos. And she put over the words with clarity, an important aspect sometimes overlooked by jazz singers. She earns her jazz diva credentials by the way she takes charge on stage. She was surrounded by excellent players, such as explosive drummer Dave Walsh, virtuoso tenorist Paul Booth and the exceptional bassist Zoltan Dekany. But there was never any doubt who was in charge.”
WILLIAM MARSHALL, HUDDERSFIELD, June 2007

“Voice, style and presence – she’s got it all. A great talent.”  
HUMPHREY LYTTLETON, August 2006

“A sparkling, poised young vocalist, Esther struck an immediate rapport with her guest trumpet player, Steve Waterman.”
SWINDON JAZZ, July 2006

“Her version of My Funny Valentine is out standing … She has found her voice and proves she can sing very well indeed.”
www.jazzrendezvous.co.za, July 2006

“The delectable Esther Miller achieved the rare distinction of being applauded back on stage at the end of her performance, to give more of the same. And there was no surprise in that! Accompanied by her regular backing group, this was a performance beyond superlatives. From ballads to bop, sultry to swinging, this stunning South African delivered shades of Sarah Vaughn, a hint of Cleo Laine; but, essentially, it was the unique Esther Miller who placed her own stamp on the music, and kept a near capacity audience demanding more.”
PETEROROUGH JAZZ CLUB, April 2005

“She radiates class, combined with relaxed humour and a great rapport with both band and audience – it’s very hard to pick out the highlights but her version of “My Funny Valentine” was one of the best I’ve ever heard.”
THE STRATFORD HERALD, 2004

“Sassy songster Esther is leader of the pack – She brings songs alive with her fine velvety voice and rhythmic awareness.”
HUDDERSFIELD JAZZ, 2004
