Reviews of Rhapsodie Française:
"...definitive interpretations...The success of the collaboration of these two world-class artists is unquestionable and on vivid display throughout this CD. The duo's performances achieve an ideal blend of elegance, delicacy, and joie de vivre. The listener is struck by the easy virtuosity and inherent musicality of every performance, and by the sensitivity and subtlety of Cohler and Vitkauskaite's ensemble work." "...flawless performances...dazzling...impetuous charm with sensitivity and grace...sparkling...a CD worthy of any collection."

"...clearly in a special class... Ms. Vitkauskaite displays a musical mentality that belies her youth; she is never a mere “accompanist,” but a true collaborator, making even the contest pieces sound like miniature chamber works. She and Cohler sound as though they’ve been playing together for years…
—Fanfare
“The collaboration is excellent…Vitkauskaite makes the most of them [the piano parts] with subtle musicianship and exceptional skill...Cohler and Vitkauskaite’s commitment to each work makes this recording not only a great model for younger players, but an enjoyable disc to pop in at home.” --American Record Guide

"Jonathan Cohler's recital ... was, as usual, musically sensitive and technically phenomenal; his wonderful pianist, Rasa Vitkauskaite, is also a fine artist, one to keep a close eye on."
