"As much as anyone alive, Victoria Jordanova has tried to haul her harp away from the shadow of the raised Steinway lid. She has added a bark to the plucky voice by using electronic enhancements. She often abjures the conventional, subserviently seated position, stands up to her instrument and berates it with dozens of tools from her magic bag..."

"Beautiful, chilling, and on-edge, all at once."
- metrobeat.com , Web site,New York April 3, 1996

"Jordanova writes music of haunting, elusive beauty..The piece strings fragments of folk themes and little upwellings of emotion over an ongoing rhythmic puls and Jordanova's precise sensual playing was as striking as the music itself."
- San Francisco Chronicle, San Francisco September 20, 1995

"the player's virtuosity is unquestionable."
- San Francisco Examiner, San Francisco September 20, 1995

"... haunting Requiem for Bosnia by Victoria Jordanova on Bang on the Can, America's most significant new-music even."
- Village Voice, New York, May 21, 1995

"... darkly moving work for harp and tape."
- New York Times, New York, May 23, 1995

"..the world premier of "Mute Dance" by Victoria Jordanova was far more impressive. A 16th- Century folk tune...is carefully wrapped in 20th-Century manners - spiky piano shards, a prerecorded drone and exotic percussion cadences."
- Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles, May 26, 1995

" ...Haunting music for harp, tape and broken piano - politics and music are rarely combined with such felicity and dignity"
- New York Newsday, New York, January 1, 1994

"strange and appealing... deeply serious (music) and yet not at all difficult for a susceptible listener...unsettling, cathartic,and yet still very beautiful...in the traditional sense."Solo harp pieces" expertly made...employing elements of folk music,minimalism, and ( no slight intended) elements of intelligent New Age"
- New York Newsday,December 6, 1994

"A handful of living composers have worked in a style...that is an attempt to express the unconscious and the dream-state in musical terms. A glorious example of the genre is Elliott Carter's Night Fantasies, and this eloquent new Requiem by Victoria Jordanova. The fury of her vaunted predecessors, including Mozart, Verdi, and Britten is sublimated, but no less powerfully expressed...lovely solo harp pieces."
- The Fanfare Magazine, September issue. 1994

"In her harp playing Jordanova is always searching for and using peculiar techniques to bring out new timbres and tone colors on her instrument. the rediscovery of improvisation is one the less recognized tendencies in the new music. In Jordanova's improvisation a wholeness is composed where rhythms,sound and pitch find each other"
