“…[Kaminska] transforms the accordion into a massive force – more pipe organ than squeezebox – and burns through Mendelssohn, Scarlatti, Rachmaninoff, and selections from The Well-Tempered Clavier with virtuosic speed and technique. Kaminska has caused jaws to drop at concert halls from Europe to the Kimmel Center.” – Philadelphia Magazine

“…accordionist Lidia Kaminska performed two rare organ works by Mozart. Indeed, Ms. Kaminska is a master musician and was able to articulate the works with near perfection on what is an inherently unwieldy and difficult instrument to play. She is arguably in my opinion the greatest living accordion player in the world. In addition, her body movements while she played were nothing less than captivating and sensual.” – Victor L. Schermer, All About Jazz

“One of the more unusual delights of Kansas City music life has been the talent of accordionist Lidia Kaminska. I’ve never heard such fleet fingers on this instrument. If all you know of accordions is polkas and Tejano music, a whole spectrum of amazing virtuosity awaits you.” – Kansas City Star

“Miss Kaminska is a rare talent. Her music and her person are inextricably one and the same. Everything she is, which is a truly fine person, comes out in her playing. Her personal and musical charisma is irresistible.” – The Messenger
