Concert
with Durham Choral Society
conductor: Rodney Wynkoop
"The
program consisted of three important compositions--Britten's "Ceremony
of Carols," presented in an edition for mixed chorus by Julius Harrison.
. . . The harpist was Anita Burroughs-Price, one of our region's great
artistic treasures. It's probably safe to say that if this concert
had consisted of nothing more than her solo harp Interlude (number seven of
the Britten work), the trek to Durham would still have been worthwhile."
John
Lambert and William Thomas Walker
Recital
with Grammy-winner Branford Marsalis
"The
biggest challeng of the work (Villa Lobos "Quatuor") is found in
the harp part... Burroughs-Price handled the challenge both gallantly
and beautifully."

Recital with NC Symphony Flutist Mary Boone and World-Renowned Organist Marilyn
Keiser
"Burroughs-Price
seemed to breeze through the many virtuosic passages (of Mozart's Concerto
for Flute and Harp) effortlessly.... Burroughs-Price returned to play "Aria
in Classic Style" for Harp and Organ by Marcel Grandjany. This
was the highlight of the evening for me as the harp got its chance to shine
via one of the great composers for the instrument. In this lyrical, romantic
work, the two instruments complimented each other in a heartfelt performance."
