“…along with the orchestra, hit some of the sweetest high notes ever played.”

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

“Anthony produced rich, lush sounds in the low ­register, lovely cantilena in the middle and ­ascended into the highest reaches of the violin’s range with accuracy and purity.”

“She played with a singing tone, polished ­arpeggios, ­sturdy double stops. Anthony added a measure of ­voltage as she took it up a notch with each ­return of the melody. Her­ ­standing ­ovation was deserved.”

The Grand Rapids Press

“Even at the top of her instrument’s register, her silvery tone never went thin or shrill. In the quieter ­moments, there was a ­bewitching delicacy to her playing, and her varied and intermittently “weepy” vibrato melted the hardest hearts (and ears).”
