Suomalaiseen ja bulgarialaiseen kansanmusiikkiin erikoistuneen Emmi Kujanpään tammikuussa 2020 julkaistava debyyttialbumi on häkellyttävän hienosti rakennettu kokonaisuus.
//
Emmi Kujanpää, who’s specialized in Finnish and Bulgarian folk music, will release in January 2020 a debut album which is a stunningly well-made entity.

Kansanmusiikki (Finnish Folk Music Magazine) 4/2019, Joonas Ojajärvi: Emmi Kujanpää: Nani. 

New territory is explored in new compositions, for example by Emmi Kujanpää, the mastermind behind the group, a Finnish folk musician who has also studied the Bulgarian tradition. – – The Bulgarian singers are very impressive in their tight sound, while the Finnish ones also provide soft and lyrical nuances in their voices.

FINNISH MUSIC QUARTERLY 1–2/2015, Tove Djupsjöbacka: Finno-Balkan Voices: Finno-Balkan Voices. Excellent vocal meeting. ​

Finnish composer and arranger Emmi Kujanpää. She is clearly a mainstay and driwing force behind the meeting, composing a number of originals and arranging others, and is evidently home in the styles of both nations, to judge by "Peperuda" which straddles both styles.
​
SONGLINES JUNE 2015, Kim Burton: ★★★★ Finno-Balkan Voices: Finno-Balkan Voices. Two choirs in perfect harmony.

Mit diesem Album macht sie sich nicht nur selbst ein Geschenk, sondern allen jenen, die eine Vorliebe haben für Interkulturelles.” Celenka: Celenka. Weltmusic-Magasizin 09/2016.
​
With this album she made not only a gift to herself, but to all those who have a love for intercultural music.
​
Weltmusic-Magasizin 09/2016: Celenka: Celenka.

Very good half-Finnish, half-Bulgarian female vocal octet with excellent, varied arrangements of strong material, from both traditions and new compositions, none of it the usual stuff. Far more productive, interesting and its own beast than the choirs abroad or in Bulgaria, who just follow the Mystere de V B trail.

FROOTS 1/2015, Andrew Cronshaw: Finno-Balkan Voices: Finno-Balkan Voices.

Folkmusikalisk fullträff. Trion Celenka imponerar från första stund på sin debutskiva. – –  Kujanpääs solon bjuder på en fin kombination av styrka och sårbarhet, vilket berör.
//​
Folk music hit. Trio Celenka impresses from the very beginning on her debut album. - - Kujanpää’s solo offers a nice combination of strength and vulnerability, which touches.
