Accolades

“For Kombos Collective’s Katerina Clambaneva, Ellie Falaris Ganelin, Emma Selmon, and Mary-Victoria Voustas, the sense of accomplishment of bringing together the heritage of Greek songs and framing them against the refugee experience in such a way that they are not only seismic and beautiful, they resonate with the echoes of all who have found the need to evacuate, to settle in lands not of their own toil across time itself.” —Ian D. Hall, Liverpool Sound and Vision

“For audiences, this is a journey both of discovery by the ears and recognition by the heart.”—Jeff Kaliss, San Francisco Classical Voice

“The sonorities were prodigiously diverse, reflecting as broad an array of dispositions as one might encounter in an eighteenth-century string quartet.” -Stephen Smoliar, The Rehearsal Studio, December 2021

“Such a delightful surprise.” San Francisco Classical Voice, by Lily O’Brien, February 2017

“The accomplished musicians’ dynamic and powerful performance stirred the imagination and fed the souls” -Hellenic Society Prometheas Newsletter, by Patty Apostolides, July 2014

“[Chamber music] may conjure different images to different people, but music of the Greek Chamber Music Project will transport you to another place, and time. For me, it took me seaside. The beautifully arranged pieces bring nostalgic thoughts of Greece. The works mirror life: at once calm and peaceful, then a bit moody, but we’re always brought back to that peaceful, beautiful time.” -Windy City Greek, by Maria Karamitsos, September 28, 2015
