Here's a very favorable review from Robin Leach:

JACKIE’S TRIUMPH: She’s still got the voice of an angel. It’s remarkable, and her power is growing as she grows up. Jackie Evancho is now 14 and had the audience on its feet with wild applause at the end of every song she performed at the Smith Center. It was extraordinary how one second her voice was the only sound and the next the entire theater burst into appreciation. Everybody had enthusiasm and a positive reaction to her talents.
As expected from my interview posted Jan. 8 with the charming youngster, she had the crowd spellbound with her song selections from her new and past albums. Jackie breezed through Don McLean’s amazing “Vincent (Starry, Starry Night).” Her encore of “The Lord’s Prayer” was a religious experience unto itself. But as fans pointed out, she experimented going right out of her normal milieu of classics and popera with Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space.”
Jackie gets more and more polished as the teen years tick on. She might sound a little nervous and giggly, unsure onstage in talking with the audience, but once the singing takes over, she’s at the highest levels of confidence with perfection in everything. Her ad-libs about school, dad, her behavior and music favorites are so spontaneous and natural, it adds to the terms of endearment. But that voice in song is pure heaven on high.
I met with her father and her before the show and laughed with her that she’s become such a world traveler that she’d forgotten she’d played the Smith Center. Jackie’s next stop will be Atlanta after returning to Pittsburgh and her hometown school where instead of being a superstar she knuckles under to schoolwork.
