In the press

A nightingale sang in Union Chapel, a voice that just grabbed you right there and never let go. Lloica Czackis is gifted with an exceptional and extraordinary voice, immensely powerful yet effortless and unforced, and moreover a voice that is both dramatic as well as lyrical as the material demands it, truly a rare phenomenon. An almost palpable air of awe seemed to pervade the audience. Positively radiating stage presence, charm and charisma, Ms. Czackis emanates the kind of confidence that comes out of not so much believing in one's ability as possessing it, lots of it. With a perfectly balanced blend of passion and sensitivity, guts and tenderness, she gave an unforgettable performance that was possessed of a maturity well beyond her young years.
Richard Sharma, Rainlore's World of Music (UK).

Crowds turned away at the door… Czackis projected her vibrant voice in a selection of poignant songs.
The Jewish Chronicle, London.

Lloica Czackis has the voice of an angel.
Varsity, Cambridge.

With the sensitive contribution of Aisemberg and Beytelmann, the audience was moved by Lloica's performance.
Graciela Iglesias, La Nación, Argentina.

The star of the evening was undoubtedly Lloica herself. Tall, statuesque and appearing in a shimmering dress, she seemed to be a reincarnation of a 1940s diva.
Lawrence Joffe, Jewish Renaissance.

The stage glowed with magical intensity.
Music & Vision, London.
