Critical acclaim for Enamiĝo Reciprokataj:

“Enamiĝo Reciprokataj is the daring work of a 35 year old visionary.” – Jazz Times, Editor’s Pick

“She’s happy to lay waste to the instrument when that’s what’s called for : “Reciprokataj IV: Olive You” begins with a display of power that would mark the summit of most players performances.” -DownBeat Magazine

“This album, so highly sophisticated with an original jazz perspective, is a roaring introduction that demands attention.” -Amazon
