Reviews of Virtuoso Piano Music Of Our Own Time

"She's not kidding. This selection of tough numbers from the present day covers an extremely wide range, from Olivier Messiaen to Art Tatum. Petrowska Quilico's catholic approach makes for some intriguing juxtapositions and highlights music that might be overlooked. Three pieces show how much strong music is being written by women. Petrowska Quilico turns in several equally strong performances." - Robert Everett Green, The Globe & Mail

"The playing as usual with Petrowska Quilico, peddles brilliance with a capital B." - William Littler, Toronto Star
