"Tedi Papavrami is evidently someone to shout about, playing with flawless technique".
- Classic CD

"Papavrami brings an impressive mix of seductive fantasy and contagious exuberance to this Prokofiev triptych. His sound, more incisive than glamorous, suits the acerbity of the First Concerto's nerve-tingling scherzo admirably. To counterbalance the vitriol, there's a dreamy inner life to this score, especially its finale, which Papavrami captures eloquently here. These are accomplished and engaging performances, and the Naxos recording is certainly the most natural I've heard from the Polish Radio Concert Hall, Katowice. Recommended."
