"Composer Andreia Pinto Correia writes music of visceral sonic impact, combined with an eclectic, even scholarly curiosity about music’s place in the world. With a strong tendency toward drama and theater, she frequently draws on literary sources for inspiration."
-Robert Kirzinger, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Assistant Director of Program Publications

–Timaeus, Concerto for Orchestra –
A compellingly meditative evocation of the natural world…clouds of sound slowly rolling past and through each other, occasionally erupting in flash and thunder.

“Ciprés” for Orchestra Review: “a radiant wash of color”
"A world premiere, a world-class soloist and one of the wildest symphonies the world has ever known blew the roof off the Ohio Theatre Friday night when Rossen Milanov led the Columbus Symphony Orchestra and violin soloist Jennifer Koh in works by Andreia Pinto-Correia, Sibelius and Berlioz."
"...Pinto Correia’s Ciprés, inspired by poetry of Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca, was a radiant wash of color."
– Jennifer Hambrick, The Columbus Dispatch
