"Kondonassis's authoritative playing and choice or repertoire demonstrates how the harp's potential stretches far beyond its popular association with palm court and the Celtic renaissance."
(BBC Music Five Stars July 2008)

On Sky Music, Kondonassis offers a widely varied repertoire including a tender interpretation of Debussy's beloved Clair de Lune. She also introduces the listener to a number of newer works such as the title track.
