"Marc Yeats' musical voice is quite unlike anything else; the music is challenging to both performers and audiences, and very communicative. He produces extraordinary compositions that not only look and sounds good, but demonstrate a very high level of academic learning, while being breathtakingly original." - Sir Peter Maxwell Davies
"Yeats' instrumental roles rae demanding, pushing every player to extremes of agility. The intensities of expression are not empty extravagances, however, but the comment of an expressionist drama that exudes the passion and life-energy of their creator." - Piers Helliwell
"He uses his orchestra resourcefully; fresh and intriguing colours, but he uses his musical time even more resourcefully, never allowing the ear to lose track of the changing and evolving ideas." - The Scotsman
"Yeats has a strikingly individual feel for the texture of an orchestra, yet it's never in all-purpose avant-garde alienated tones." - David Fanning, The Telegraph
"Marc Yeats is one of the most exciting composers I have encountered in recent years. His ability to use maximum with all timbres of the instrument, whilst never sacraficing the very heart of the music, gives the musician many challenges which are exhilarating to discover." - Kathryn Scott
