Tanya Anisimova is an American cellist and composer of Russian descent.
Playing style
The press has described cellist and composer Tanya Anisimova as the artist with "spiritual authority" and "a refined musical intelligence"; her performances - as "thoughtful and powerful, alluring and energizing"; her interpretations - as "invariably full of personality and character." Anisimova's original music has been quoted as "deeply emotional," "mystical," and "marrying a sense of wild fancy and studied control." Of the performer's live improvisations with her own vocalizing it has been said that they have "subtle harmonies" and "a very refined melody, clearly in Slavic style." Joseph McLellan of the Washington Post called Anisimova's improvisations "powerfully evocative vocalises, which she sang with a pure, precisely controlled voice." ==Discography==
