Tenor Anthony Dean Griffey produced large and gleaming tone and displayed subtle musical and verbal intelligence. He is an altogether exceptional artist.” – Boston Globe

"The tenor Anthony Dean Griffey navigates the straits between utterance and intention with great deftness, making his Peter one of the most textured and subtle characters to dominate the Met’s vast stage in a long time. Griffey is a big man and Grimes an angry one, but instead of size and rage fusing into a simple monster, they fit together in more nuanced ways. The tenor doesn’t so much suppress the character’s violent urges as ingest and absorb them, letting the toxic exhalations of his psyche mingle with the sweet breeze of his voice. Griffey’s Grimes can be dangerous, especially at his most terrifyingly mild”.

“Even more impressive [than the choral sound] was the quartet of soloists. Tenor Anthony Dean Griffey was strong, sturdy and intense.”
