“In the rarefied world of solo flutists, Piccinini has emerged as one of the world’s preeminent flutists. She has clearly taken the place of such celebrated masters as Rampal and Galway.”
— Classical Voice North America
"When Piccinini plays the flute, you're left wondering how there can be so many ways for a human being to breathe…intelligence, intensity of focus and a no-nonsense demeanor that directs all energy toward the music's fullest realization.”
— The Washington Post
“…an absolutely first-rate player…power and exuberance...a musician who hears and understands with great intelligence.”
