"She has The talent, temperament and technique for a major international career." The New York Post
Christina Kiss
“But what made Miss Kiss’s performance exciting was the sense that she seemed to see the works as tone-poems and emotional outpourings rather than simply as display pieces. In her best moments, her tempos had an elasticity that made her readings breathe and transformed their technical fire into something deeper.”
– Allan Kozinn, The New York Times

The New York Times
"Christina Kiss, a young Hungarian pianist and a winner in many music competitions around the world, played Bartok and Liszt last Sunday evening at Alice Tully Hall. Miss Kiss's technical reliability in all this music was unshakable. Stylistically, there was never a hair out of place." Bernard Holland, The New York Times
"Christina Kiss has resumed her historic Liszt Cycle Oct. 23, 2004, after a brief respite, with a dazzling stage perfomance that left the audience spellbound. Performing a demanding program of several Liszt Transcriptions and other lesser known works her renditions of Réminiscences des Puritains (Bellini), Polonaise aus Tchaikovsky's Opera "Onegin" brought cheers of "Bravo!" resounding throughout the hall. To the crowds surprise Liszt's God Save The Queen-Concert Paraphrase struck a chord close to home, for the melody is none other than that used to carry the lyrics of America's,"...sweet land of Liberty," which some spectators enthusiastically sang as Ms. Kiss performed. Upon performing Liszt's Illustrations from Meyerbeer's Opera L'africaine Christina's finger began to bleed, yet she not only finished the lengthy piece undaunted but then miraculously gave not one, but two, Chopin encores! A spectacular display of monumental talent coupled with a passion and determination rarely experienced... and all the more rewarding for those fortunate enough to attend."- Rich DiSilvio
