Anupriya and her violin seem to have merged inseparably. Never before have I listened to such a full-bodied, mellow sound, produced on what may well be a Stradivarius,.Such a deep mental immersion into the essence of a raga, transparent logical development, powerful rythmic accentuation is something unique for a musician of her generation.
A genius. K. Roemer - German music critic.


Anupriya und ihre Violine scheinen untrennbar verschmolzen zu sein. Nie zuvor habe ich derart perfekter Bogentechnilk, einem solch vollen, warmen Klang gelauscht, der sehr wohl einer Stradivari entlockt sein k?nte. Ein solch tiefes Eintauchen in die Essenz eines Raga, transparente logische Entwicklung, kraftvolle rythmische Akzentuierung sind einmalig f? einen Musiker ihrer Generation.
Ein Genie.- K. Roemer, deutscher Musikkritiker
