"Elisabeth is a masterful player who intelligently arranges and, with her interpretations of the old and the new, creates a collection of solo pieces that can be easily compared to that of the great Lyle Ritz." (Mike Flaherty in Uke Magazine, December 2019)
"(...) is popular at festivals all over Europe; known for their great workshops, virtuoso play and great personality." (TeamGNUF)
​
"We can no longer imagine a festival without it. She offers a wide range of different workshops for all levels and her concerts are beautiful. It is also an important advertising medium for our festival!" (Elisabeth Flik - Austrian Ukulele Festival)
​
"Elisabeth Pfeiffer, for me, is one of the few artists in the European ukulele scene who alone convinces with her virtuoso ukulele playing and proves that women do not necessarily have to sing, but can to inspire the audience. It's fun to watch her rock the stage with her ukulele and friends." (Sabina Saracevic - Berlin Ukulele Festival)
​
"(...) The intensity and care in her playing show not only her feeling for the music and the instrument, but also her close connection to the songs she arranges. In her arrangements, she often gives the originals a more introverted aspect, with a tenderness that would not be taken for granted." (Ben Anderson - Czech Ukulele Festival)
