As a pianist, Mr. Kvitko has captured the attention of music critics with his “masterful, intuitive playing... arresting artistry...” (Fanfare Magazine), and has been praised for his “luminous touch… warm, round sound… plenty of brilliance” (The Chronicle-Herald). His recording of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition was proclaimed as “one of the best ever made” and placed on its Critics’ Choice List by American Record Guide. As a composer he gathered multiple awards for his incidental music for the production of Steven Dietz’s play “Dracula.” Fanfare Magazine called it “a well conceived, executed, and imaginative score… entertaining, powerful, witty.” Mr. Kvitko’s artistic accomplishments are balanced by his reputation as an internationally sought-after recording engineer and producer of the highest caliber, declared by Fanfare Magazine as “one of the best in the business,” while American Record Guide praised his work as a ”consistent stream of exceptionally enjoyable recordings.”
