La Jornada

Jimena elevated her talent toward a capacity of noble expressiveness and the most pure communion with her singing instrument, a most touching finale.
La Jornada de Morelos 2002

Upon listening to the final notes of the piece by the Russian composer Schnittke, one could sense a sweet death approaching, like a perfume that invokes the presence of the eternal.

Jimena convinced by way of her moving, warm and profound sound. Through her controlled handling of the bow she accomplished an extended phrasing. The duet Giménez Cacho–Dudin, which for some time now has been in existence, has reached maturity. This is evidenced by a dialogue among equals, a sonorous balance and a clear articulation.

Última Hora Ibiza

This was a most interesting program in which Giménez Cacho exhibited her fine qualities both as musician and interpreter: a warm and vigorous sound with a fine timbre that achieved a profound performance of the difficult work by Sibelius, as well as an excellent duo with pianist Claudio Herrera.

El imparcial Oaxaca

Here we have an artist, with expressive hands and a countenance of great inspiration, and a cello, which, rather than being an extension of the performer, fuses with her, as in the supreme act of love.
