Reviews

“The result is a fusion of styles that defies national boundaries and claims a sound of its own.“ – All About Jazz (Friedrich Kunzmann)

"Nikolett Pankovits makes a strong debut here, aided by Herrera's skillful arranging and a strong supporting cast of musicians." - All About Jazz (Mark Sullivan)

"This album contains some of the freshest vocals you’re going to come across this year." - Jazz Weekly (George W. Harris)

"Nikolett Pankovits has crafted a singular sound on her self-released debut album Magia".- Jazziz

"One can imagine her singing in a Hungarian bistro pouring her heart out." - Downbeat (Bob Protzman)

"Beautifully moody, this is a most impressive debut." - Culture Catch (Steve Holtje)

"Pankovits’ moves through the various influences and genres with an ease that weaves the eclectic set together very deftly." - The Jazz Page

"Throughout the album Pankovits' beautiful voice (in Hungarian and English) graces these tracks with a purity that is really quite exceptional. ...this is quality folk/jazz music from an artist who is surely on the rise within the New York jazz community. Recommended. - Sea of tranquility
