“(...) a top-notch interpretation and an orchestra of virtuosos...” (Živilė Ramoškaitė, 2024),
“(...) it seemed that the overall unified interpretation, the lightness of the music-making was achieved not even by the conductor’s gesture, but by the thought – so sensitively did the musicians respond to the lead. This level of leadership shows the precision and liveliness of the creative style discovered...” (Daiva Tamošaitytė, 2024)
