Pipes at One: Gail Archer

Her repertoire spans the 16th to 20th centuries, and she is one of the first American women to play Olivier Messiaen’s complete works, earning praise from The New York Times for mixing a “compelling authority” and “bracing physicality” with “a sense of vulnerability and awe.”
