Her unique ability to inspire her students, combined with her innate
musicality and clear exposition of technique, makes her a teacher beyond

Wilma Jensen is, as far as I know, one of the leading organ teachers in
America, one of the highest top rank. I remember her interest in teaching
which she discussed, years ago, with Jean Langlais (I believe it was 1969)
when he gave a recital in Oklahoma City. They had long talks about
musicological subjects. On the other hand, I know some of her very talented
pupils; their playing, their style and flair are just great. I hope she
will teach more in the next years. She is one of the most memorable
musicians in America.Marie-Louise Langlais

Wilma continues to be a visionary teacher who has the ability to get to the
heart of the musical or technical matter in an astoundingly comprehensible
manner. Her musical and technical insights are informed by decades of
teaching at all levels, from beginning organists to top prize winners, and
her own distinguished performing career as an internationally celebrated
soloist, collaborative musician and conductor.Janette Fishell, D.Mus

Ms. Jensen¹s ability to communicate her points brilliantly made her
teaching both fun and effective! It was a joy to work with such
experience!David Jernigan

Wilma Jensen is a superb musician and teacher with exceptional mastery in
the fields of organ performance and church music. For over a decade I was
inspired by lengthy coaching sessions with her in organ repertoire, and
found her teaching to be unsurpassed (and indeed, to have greatly influenced
my own teaching career.) I have additionally had the opportunity to benefit
from observing her organ master classes and choral concerts, and from
listening to her very fine choral and organ CDs. Anyone in the field who
has an opportunity to hear Wilma Jensen--whether playing music, conducting
it, or speaking about it--will quickly realize his/her very good fortune in
learning from a master musician.

Her clear musical ideas were expertly conveyed through her graceful technical approach to the instrument which the students were able to grasp right away. I most appreciated her getting right to the point quickly and being able to demand maximum musical expression from each student. I look forward to having her back to share her vast experience with the next generation.
