"A profoundly affecting release" - Gramophone, 2015 (Sculthorpe album review)
“Australian piano gold... transfixing” – BBC Music Magazine, 2015 (Sculthorpe album review)
“magisterial and uplifting” – Limelight Magazine, 2017 (live review: Monet’s Flowers of War, National Gallery of Australia)
“the audience welcomed one of the busiest concert pianists around, Tamara-Anna Cislowska. What a treat to be able to hear such a fantastic, sensitive and agile pianist navigate Prokofiev’s intense and lengthy cadenzas… Cislowska’s playing was impeccable. She was in turns immensely powerful and charmingly vulnerable, channelling the young Prokofiev as the pianist battles with pressures and forces internal and external… thunderous applause”
– The Age (live review, Prokofiev Piano Concerto no.2/Canberra Symphony Orchestra, February 2018)
“a thrill to hear [Cislowska] performing the technically demanding Prokofiev Piano Concerto No 2 in G minor… wonderful control and contrast in her playing style – one moment delicate and sublime then suddenly heavy, solid and demanding and in powerful control of her keyboard.”
– Canberra CityNews, February 2018 (Prokofiev Piano Concerto no.2/Canberra Symphony Orchestra) www.cinqueartistmanagement.com
“Tamara-Anna Cislowska’s solos are impeccable – ravishing in the Chopin and Beethoven and crystalline in Pärt’s bell-like Für Alina” – Limelight Magazine, 2017 (Australian Chamber Orchestra: Mountain)

- Canberra CityNews, 2014
