Pianist "Christina Petrowska Quilico" on Compact Disc.
“The Work is flamboyantly virtuosic and Petrowska Quilico takes full advantage of the opportunity to rise to the occasion... It is a well-crafted, dramatic work that would be well at home on any mainstream orchestral concert and, deserves to be heard more often.David Olds (DISCoveries Editor)
