"Charnofsky played powerfully with sensitive expression, showing a wide range of dynamics and clear rhythmic delineation." ~ Robert Rollin, clevelandclassical.com, reviewing a 2016 performance on the Chagrin Concert Series
"The performers will invariably take a few punches from Beethoven — here, the thrill was watching Cornelius and Charnofsky come right back with their own through their tireless technique and unbeatable spirit." ~ Jarrett Hoffman, clevelandclassical.com, reviewing a 2020 recital with violinist Emily Cornelius
"Eric Charnofsky is a superb partner at the piano, undaunted by the most complicated keyboard writing — including his own." ~ Daniel Hathaway, clevelandclassical.com, reviewing the 2016 CD "Some Measures for Living" with flutist George Pope - Crystal Records
"The pianist featured on this album is Eric Charnofsky... and he is certainly exceptional. The players achieve a synergy that is apparent from the get-go." ~ Timothy Hagen, The Flutist Quarterly, reviewing the 2016 CD "Some Measures for Living" with flutist George Pope - Crystal Records
"Charnofsky provided his usual rock-solid partnership at the piano." ~ Kevin McLaughlin, clevelandclassical.com, reviewing a 2025 performance by the Cleveland Chamber Collective
