Prof. Stephen Deutsch

: "Titas is an imaginative and skilled composer who possesses a wide range of musical styles combined with a real understanding of how music and images come together. His energy and talent are put to good use in any project he undertakes".

Quote from the Peer Raben Award (2009) jury's statement: "The music is an organical part of this excellently done short film. Petrikis masters the connection between picture and sound in a highly sensitive way. The orchestral score produces a strong atmosphere and draws the audience into the film, being an essential part of the narrative. We'd love to hear this composer's music performed by a real orchestra."

Lithuanian composer Giedrius Kuprevicius writes in his website: "Finally the last Titas work "idenTITy" reached me. Six compositions were published at Star Studio in Rome. I am happy that with each new composition Titas makes a progress and surprises me with new musical ideas". More information at G.Kuprevicius website.
