"Cláudio de Pina explores, with the historical organ in Ajuda, a infinite sonic possibilities [...] Cláudio de Pina is a multifaceted musician."[3]

"De Pina thus joins a generous list of organists specialising in the contemporary repertoire, with Dominik Susteck and Eckhard Manz as two of the most experienced representatives of this practice."[4]

"[...] German composer and scholar Gerd Zacher recorded albums of pipe organ music for Deutsche Grammophon that included recent works by Kagel, Ligeti and Cage. Now Portuguese composer, scholar and organist Cláudio de Pina celebrates the same avant garde [...] The passion and dedication De Pina brings to this project are as evident as his knowledge and skill."[5]
