"Once
in a while a voice of such quality and beauty rises up that it transcends all
musical styles and cultures. Pia has such a voice. Her gentle, echoing vocals
create an irresistible warmth that caresses the listener with heavenly
sound."
"Pia
sings joyously and liberatingly, she soars on crescendos and luminary melodies
that make a gorgeous backdrop to her unmistakable and, arguably, unmatched vocal
talents. Her voice is as pure as spring water, as clear as a crystal pool, as
smooth as….angel delight. Rarely have I felt this way about music."
