Donna Antonow-Reviews  

"Open your ears and arms to a new stylist. Donna Atnonow has a way with a song - her own way. Besides her soul-jazz vocals, she deliver scintillating piano accompaniments,
arrangements and solo stylings... I DIG IT..."

-BOB DOROUGH

"Antonow's is distinctive and quite eccentric.
It's an approach to singing as radical as Thelonius Monk's to the piano or
Lester Bowie's to the trumpet..."

"Donna Antonow does more than hold her own with her fellow jazz vocalists -
her strong vocals and nuanced phrasing carry her high above her contemporaries..."

-The Express Times

"...the way Donna presents standards does more than breathe new life, she completely resuscitates them. She takes a standard and for four or five minutes, makes the song her own, and when she is finished, the song is better for that experience...of the 10 best of 2001..."

-Dave Nathan, All About Jazz

"She plays the piano and sings like no one you've ever heard.
I suspect at the age of four she was kidnapped by a roving band of jazz musicians
that taught her all their secrets..."

-Gerry Geddes, Encore Magazine
