« Voix féline, enjôleuse et parfaitement maîtrisée et piano minimaliste, qui s'insinue dans vos oreilles, votre cerveau, pour mieux vous mordre les tripes et vous faire fondre. Laissez-vous aller... le plaisir est au bout. » © Emmanuel P. DJOB

à propos du "Gershwin's Blues" Album

« Each track shows true imagination in its instrumental setting, texture and arrangement. It is music that should be listened to more than once to discover its different layers. I know I will and urge you to do the same » © Rick MARGITZA

« Olinka is a gifted pianist and vocalist of russian origins (from Latvia). It's revealed in her very apropo project Gershwin's Blues, baring her soul and heart beautifully and honestly. I continue to enjoy listening frequently to the wonderful and intimate interpretations of some of the best music ever written. » © Darryl HALL
