The Oregonian - The Lark Ascending
"[Anderson is] currently enjoying a brilliant career as one of the finest players to come out of Portland in recent years. She was captivating, with a radiant tone and masterful bow arm married to incisive musicality, and the music’s phrases soared dreamily aloft, she was also an inspiration—a player from the past offering a vision of the possible future for the rest of the night’s soloists."

"She digs her bow into the strings, begins to shift her weight from foot to foot like a boxer. The violin climbs through a series of trills to a high lyrical passage, and the music opens like a blooming flower. Becky Anderson has managed to take Poème in a heavenly direction, and for the rest of the piece her playing is impassioned and strong, and she is rewarded at the end with loud applause and a curtain call."

"The Prokofiev Sonata No. 1 in F Minor for Violin and Piano as performed by pianist Petrova and violinist Anderson also exhibited this quality of precision, technical mastery and emotional expressive power. In this work both pianist Petrova and violinist Anderson exhibited a high degree for virtuosity as they emerged as equal partners and occasional soloists, but always superb ensemble partners."
